July 4th Tablescape….Country Simplicity
I don’t do a lot of formal table settings. Mostly casual around here, July 4th will be no different.
I use tablecloths a lot, even when the table is not set. Most because of the dust. It’s a terrible problem here in Colorado. I have a farmhouse like table that is painted black. (I totally love black.) It came with a leaf that expands it into a square. I’ve had this table for many years and I still love it. My dining area is small, so I use benches for seating mostly for that reason. Regardless of space I am planning to add a chairs to the mix. I love the mismatched look and have collected a few. Now I just need to commit on a fabric choice.
Making Some Design Boards
Finally got some time to get my post up. Friday night I worked on making some design boards. It’s something I’ve wanted to do for a while. I idea of the design boards come from Lori Holt of Bee In My Bonnet.
Daffodils, Daisies and a Tammy Bag
Last week I put together a simple floral arrangement to compliment a Tammy Bag that I finally got the frame sewn on. As I cropping and framing photos to post pics for the Meet and Greet I participated in last Friday, I began to collage some of my favorites.

Spent some time Friday night working on Winter Queen. Got a good amount done. It’s taking a while but I’m getting there.
