A short visit with you.,..

        Good evening everyone, I'm here at Mama's house visiting with my oldest daughter and grandchildren...  we all went to Michael's the craft store today because they had a yarn sale...
Which was nice because I'am making a granny square blanket...  that I had been wanting to make for 
ever in a day...  and I needed this one Cherry Red and Beverly's had no more... Yay Michael's had it and it was two for five...  so I was very excited about it...  We actually went last night but not the grandchildren and we decided to go back this morning and get some more yarn and the girls and one boy wanted to learn so their mama is teaching them the girls are doing well...
        I have shown these Greengate dishes before.. But I don't believe that I had my dinner plates, they had sent me the 
wrong ones, which were navy blue stars, which ended being okay because they let me keep them...
I think these are so beautiful...  if I had more money there are some other pieces that I like but they are not cheap and neither is the shipping one in a life time most likely...
(My past two Spring Tables)
They match perfect with my Homer Laughlin tea cups..  which I have since broke two.. and can not find
a good deal on some more to replace them or for that fact find any period...
so sad maybe one day in the future...  they were on of my favorite tea cups...
        Another favorite bowl of mine that I found after Mama had passed on when my daughter in law 
took me to Pacific Ca. to get away for a day...
I feel in love with it right away and the man happen to be having a sale and I think I ended up paying Only six dollars for it...
filled with crocheted hot pads that I crocheted, that are a copy of a small vintage one I found hundreds of years ago...
Not really but you know it was years and years back...
       Gosh I know I'm jumping ahead but boy I can't wait till Spring arrives... I'm over 
Winter for sure...  It's just been way to dark...
       Love this Robin Blue Hall teapot.. It had a tiny chip on the tip of the spout but, I purchased it anyhow...
I haven't seen another since...
       This is my Greengate teapot, the first one that I received the handle was completely broken...  so now I have a perfect one...  in perfect condition...
Are you ready for Spring yet ???
Well everyone I hope to have my I-pad fixed real soon.. so I can post more often again... 
I hope your having a lovely weekend 
and you have a wonderful enchanting Sunday...
with love Janice

  1. Those hot pads you crotched are beautiful and such a great idea. They match all your spring table beautifully. I am in awe of all your stunning sets, you certainly have a wonderful collection. We have had such a mild Winter here but it is so dreary due to all the constant rain so I am looking forward to Spring. Take care.

  4. Love seeing all your beautiful dishes. You pictures are so beautiful. Where I live in Texas we do not get true seasons I feel like. You are either really hot or cold. There are some perfect days in between. It is cold her today but the skies are gorgeous.
    Hope you have a wonderful day my dear.
    Hugs
