Being in my Garden brings me such Joy..The flowers all seem to have their own little personalities
Some are shy,some are bold,some just say hey look at me. The Hummers flit through out the gardens,
with their Beautiful Colors Like flying  fine jewels ~ the Butterflies are so busy doing what they need to do before it gets cooler. Baby birds announce their arrival..a family of chickadees just fledged.as did the Baby Wrens. I have a olde chicken feeder in the Garden that I've painted with "Leave a Place in your Garden for Fairies to Dance" Humm is that what I see out of the corner of my eye while sitting and reading in this Restful Place? Maybe....



Baby Wren

  Something is wrong with this Bird? But he sure is hungry...



Hybiscus in the Morning.

And the Happy Faces of the Lazy Susans..

When I am in the Garden I have to give thanks for the beauty of Nature..
How can you not smile with these lovely ladies all around..

Happy Stitching

Can't believe I have not posted lately. Have been crazy with orders,yard work,
and trying to capture dust bunnies! I took a few pics in my yard recently and also have a finish and WIP. I also took a few pics of some stitching I did in 1987-89.

I honestly don't remember who the designer is,but its a wonderful piece! Stitched on 32 count linen
