Summer joys

Summer sky

A walk along the country road, fresh cut hay

Me and hubby got crafty; a Williamsburg bird bottle from mom for my birthday the other from our visit several years ago, an old snow door salvaged, a star and planters

Planted sunflowers, zinnia, Coleus, blackeye Susan's, and seeds from my grandpa's farm

New York skyline on our drive home from MD/NC vacation 

A few finds at a flea mall in NC and Antique Mall in VA. Over the moon about the dough bowl. Have always wanted one, this is a nice piece!!

Cousin's koi pond

My Aunt crocheting and I stitched. ♡♡

This truly was a gift to be doing handwork together.

Finally got started!!

Field trip to The Stitching Post in MD.

Picked up several of the patterns and ordered the rest for this patriotic project. ☆♡☆

Wanted to get the patterns for the sea creatures but they were out of stock. Will place order later

It was nice to visit a stitch store once again.
