What an amazing pumpkin you grew, and it is very exciting to have seeds for next spring to plant! I love the quilt you are working on, it is gorgeous, and truly a blessing to be able to move your island table around, and work on your quilt where you can be closer to Steve. Must be such a hard time for the both of you for him to be so ill. Praying for you both, as it is as hard for the care-er as it is for the one who is ill! So wonderful that you can now work on your quilting and be close to Steve. I love staying busy as well as being close to my loved ones too! Blessings to you sweet friend!

Connie, your home is so neat and pretty and cozy. It just looks warm inside. Your pictures outside are all so pretty. We had very little fall weather. It turned really cold and for the last two or three days the wind has blown like crazy.

I really like your sedum. Your daisy quilt is pretty and how great to have that big island to work on. Your little creative space in the house looks so cozy. That is one huge pumpkin!

I've always loved dandelions...I don't care if they're considered weeds; I think they're cheerful and beautiful. And the leaves are nutritious, too! <br /><br />I don't think I've ever seen views of your home like the ones you posted. What a beautiful, charming home you have! I love the island that Steve made and how clever he was to put it on wheels so that it can be moved around. The table and chairs look really good in your kitchen and now you have more room to do your quilting while you're watching TV, too.<br /><br />Love, blessings and prayers for both yourself and Steve.

Your photos are GORGEOUS.. what kind of camera do you use? They capture such details.. and I love how the front is in focus, and the background is blurred. So pretty.. and even in the winter, when flowers and plants are done for the year, they still have a beauty of their own. Good idea to harvest your own pumpkin seeds. And great idea! to move that island closer to the living room so you have a crafty surface to work on. So much you can do there! And I love your quilt, and admire you that you are doing hand quilting on it. I'm going to attempt a baby quilt using quilt as you go for the blocks.. and I need to get it started right away as the baby girl is due in mid December! I keep putting it off. Lovely way to spend the days.. with your sweetie, a quilt and YouTube! xoxoxo MarilynMarilyn McLeod @ Pink Paper Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13166022624714254716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136180253380173794.post-42528374232352827042019-11-13T12:34:28.128-08:002019-11-13T12:34:28.128-08:00How lovely your quilt looks in your cosy kitchen. ...How lovely your quilt looks in your cosy kitchen. =) 'Tis a beautiful quilt.
