Autumn Crochet duster
Good Morning~~~ Cloudy cool day here in Tennessee~
a great day to do some landscaping around the pool..it is looking like a jungle out there..pulling all the periwinkle & mint up---That stuff grows like crazy~
.adding wood chips-
Worked on my Autumn Crochet duster--1 step at a time, This has been a long process--tack a piece-- take a pic--remove that section
Redo over and over till it hangs just right~
This will be tea stained a vintage color.add old buttons--a few tatters and this DUSTER will rock this Fall~
WORK calls~~ The Fun is over for a few hours..So wish I had a landscaper..~~.

Hand Made with Love~A "Keepsake"....
Hand Made with Love~,,,A "Keepsake"....I have many hand made quilts
My mother, grand mother and I quilt..and I cannot even imagine someone giving a quilt away
Hand it down to someone in the family...these are treasures--so much work.love and time is put into a quilt.
That being said-I found these wonderful quilts in a lil junkin shop in Ringgold Ga today~
Someone spent a great deal of time on these quilts..7 stitches per inch..good batting, great old domestic fabric on back~
As I picked up the quilt, I thought..I would love to know the story behind these old quilts..SAD~
But I added these to my buggy and was very grateful I found them
