Pure Summer Delight.

I have to admit that I am sometimes

not the biggest fan of summer.

It's hot, I wilt, I wallow, I wonder

if it will ever end.

But...LOOK! what wonders

all that sun and summertastic

delight brings!

Our raspberries are the best they have

EVER been, and our sweet pea stand

just keeps going.

With bowls and vases filled with

summer's wonderful delights,

life feels full, fragrant and delicious.

Crafty Folks I Love: Bonnie Jones

Last weekend I set up at the Craft-In sale at the

Newberg 99W Drive In Movie Theatre.

It was a very slow day...but I met Bonnie,

and that definitely made the day FANTASTIC.

Here is some of her work:

She finds old Journals and notebooks to

put in luscious settings,

full of color and beauty.

Aren't these hankies filled with

spooky wonderful delight?

I am an handkerchief collector,

and would love these above my dresser.

And all seems right in the world when you

look at something on a clothesline.

Can you believe that when I was in the

7th grade, a girl in my class

had no idea what a clothesline was!?

I was flabbergasted to say the least.

Quilt.

Just finished this little quilt

for a baby on the way.

Great friends of mine are

in the final few weeks count down

until their baby is born.

The big question...

Will he have red hair?

Can't wait to find out!

Go visit the wonderful women at Bolt

to find the yummy yardage

used in this project.
