It's All about TEXTILE



I just love this antique embroidered piece. It would make nice rug wall hanging too!




This is listed as a quilt... Isn't it a beauty?

RIP Mommy

Yesterday my 92 year old Mom died. This is not exactly hooking related news but it's all I can think about right now, so I'm sharing!!

Another year old today...

Today I'm 60 years old. I never thought about reaching this milestone when I was 25. It was all about living in the moment!! All that drinking, partying without a care in the world, haha, sometimes, I wonder how I survived it all. How time flies... What's next? If we can map our futures, by the lives of our parents then I got another good 30 something years in me, as Mom is still all bright and perky at 92... Life has been good to me.
