a cold front came through tricking us into thinking Fall had arrived.
I rushed out and gathered all the pink and white Spring dishes from the old cupboard, fixed a dishpan full of warm soapy water, pulled out the Old English furniture polish and went to work.
What a dirty dusty mess covered the old cupboard! Henny Penny Lane is dirt, you know. It has been hot and dry and the cloud of dust kicked up behind going and coming cars, drifts and settles on the everything on the teeny tiny porch.
I pulled out a few "almost Fall" looking things...
We had three wonderfully cooler days and nights, even turned the air conditioner off and slept with the windows open. Been a few months since we could enjoy cool night air and hear the frogs down at the pond. Sleep was good.
Rarely do I pick flowers for a vase except for Goldenrods in the Fall and Goldenrods are not in full bloom yet. There are masses of these plants with tiny little flowers growing along the path...so I gathered a few.
Sorry for posting three pictures of the cupboard. Would delete one, but that would throw all different font sizes into my post and that drives me crazy! :( Same with the picture below, It is not worth posting.
Anyhow, still spending time in the sewing room...
working mostly on bags and bonnets. Can't believe I haven't been to the farmer's market since I started making bags. That's just like me! :( Guess I need to get up from here and go take a picture to show you. Be right back...
Well, here are a few... Have 3 more bags in the sewing room and 2 more cut out ready to sew...
It's kinda fun using this low hanging limb on the old snowball bush for picture taking. Maybe I should try bonnets and aprons here too. Log homes are dark. I've just discovered how much better the natural light makes things look.
Don't tell anyone there's a big sweet kitty cat that hangs out in my sewing room...
No way could I ever advertise, "made in a pet free home"...
Good thing Smokey doesn't bother things...like the pin cushion. Sweet Dumperoo, (we miss you so much), would have, with his teeth, pulled every pin and needle from that pin cushion.
Guess I've gone on long enough. Hate to wear out my welcome. Forgot to mention above that the hot weather came back with a vengeance. Temps in the high 90s and Wednesday was 102 out here in the country.
Here's a neat sunset picture I took looking up the road toward the garden...
and I thank you very much for stopping by, dear friends.
Love, Henny
Can you believe!! Someone must have heard me talking and for meaness threw some large font words into my post! :)
