The Long and Lean of It

A Bit of a Surprise

I know this

I know this fabric. Its just a repeat from yesterday and I wish I still had some of it! Its really pretty fabric. And you can find the pillow here. There is a great selection of fabrics. Yay! Thanks Turquoise Tumbleweed.

Bye Bye Ottoman

I said goodbye to my ottoman today. I can call him mine because I made him. Now, it may be the first and last ottoman I make. However, looking at these photos now, I didn't totally finish it. Oh well. There wasn't enough room for him in my new rearranged living room, which is sad, but a friend of mine adopted the ottoman and he will live with them now. Yay! And she has a project to finish:)

Table Setting

Whew. I have been cooking all day for a supper we had tonight. We had my in laws over for my mother-in-laws birthday. It was a nice summer meal. I made my first ever jelly roll cake. Yay! But the point of this blog post  is to show you great table settings. My favorite thing, ok there might be two things, about having people over is setting the table. Enjoy these! ( My second favorite thing, if it is a birthday, is decorating the cake with flowers from my yard.) All done.

Where's Waldo

This is a new necklace up on etsy. You can find it here.  See if you can find it in the grass!

Here comes the...Bridesmaids!

Doesn't this look great? The Governor's Daughter was commissioned to create necklaces for the attendants of the bride pictured above (who is an old camp friend.) The colors were taken from zinnias in the fall. Another old friend of mine, actually another old camp friend, too -- which makes it seem sweeter -- was the photographer. She sent these over and I love it! The bride looks beautiful and all the gals look great. Thank you Jemma Coleman Photography. Check her out here, www.jemmacolemanphotography.com
