Ooooh, I've....

been so good....haven't been to a garage sale in months but on the way home from church I spotted one and had to stop, well not had to but wanted to, and I'm glad I did. Look...what I found.... this sweet apron someone made. It's really more a hostess apron and I love it's festive colors....

cute little pocket for a little hanky or mint.....bound in red seam binding....

with a pretty little bib.....why would someone part with this sweetie? Not to worry, I appreciate the time it took to create....it's come to a good home and I'm going to enjoy it. I also found this pretty lunch box tin,

originally it was filled with cookies. I just thought it was very pretty....

I like that it is a garden scene, there is a blue bird and can't forget the little heart.... I think I'll put some stitching items in it. Now I need to find some things for Goodiewill, my new motto "in with some out with some"....have a happy day and week....hugs, Linda

~ A Little Sharing ~

I just finished this sweet little Santa by The Prairie Schooler..... I think he is so cute. I already had the little pillow and I thought it was perfect for him. Now, I have to show you the sweetest little Cinderella doll, by Madame Alexander, my DD gave me.... you'll never guess where.........

she got her....in a Happy Meal from McDonalds. Yes, McDonalds, she is darling, I've tucked her in amongst some of my story~book dolls on my night stand and I think she is very happy there. Did you see her little crown....I have a small collection of crowns so this makes her even more special to me. Well, I'm off to do a few things before dinner...have a happy weekend.....hugs, Linda

~ Hi ~

Hi everyone, just popping in to let you know I'm still here and all is well. I've just been totally away from my computer for two weeks. The weather has been wonderful here with lots of little visitors popping in for a quick visit and a little snack....I just love watching these little hummers they are ever entertaining. Hope to see you soon and do some major catching up....hugs, Linda
