Sunday Daydreams 2

Today finds us just laying around the house, Richard is sick and I'm coming down with it..fever,chills,cough and a sore throat, so far I just have a sore throat. While he takes a nap I'm folding laundry and sitting here watching Youtube while Crystal is off at the Stables helping with a big Birthday Party and the other 2 are playing games on their computer and watching silly shows on Disney. 

I'm going to try to join in on the Youtube "Vlogtober" where we film some sort of video every day in the month of October. Today is my 2nd day of filming and the vlog will be up later this evening. Here is our first one

Today I'm Daydreaming about re-decorating our whole house. I'm just not getting very excited when I see pics of Country/Prim anymore. I find my eye really lights up when I see Cottage pics. I don't want a whole house full of Pottery Barn but this quilt is a Dream..

I just love this and it's top of my list and just keeps on growing! 

Do you have anything on your lists that your saving for? 

My Crafty Weekend

On Sunday I went with my Mother to visit the Cincinnati Art Museum to see the new exhibition, Masterpiece Quilts from the Shelburne Museum, You can read the info about it here http://www.cincinnatiartmuseum.org/absolutenm/templates/ArtTempExhibitions.aspx?articleid=603&zoneid=65

It was amazing to see the workmanship on these quilts, the colors were so vibrant still! Afterwards my mother and I visited the quilt giftshop and I found this treasure waiting for me, Ohio Is My Dwelling Place: Schoolgirl Embroideries, 1800-1850 by Sue Studebaker.

I'm very excited to read this and I enjoyed looking and learning about all of the quilts and the people that made them!

Spring!

I have flowers a plenty popping up here! The kiddos and I walked the property today in the sunshine and played down by the creek. It was warm with a little breeze. It was good to air out the house today, smells fresh now! I'm working on a few new stitcheries and starting on a quilt for my SIL who has stage 3 overian cancer and is in the Hospital. Please pray for Wendy, She is a darling, upbeat, kind hearted soul. I'm blessed to have her in my life. Since this is my first ever quilt I'm full of nerves, I want it to be just right to keep her warm in the Hospital for almost 3 months! I'm off to work on some more of my project and trying to fit Spring Cleaning in somewhere.
