A New Home!

This is the house as it was when we first began praying about it last spring.

I had been praying for the impossible for over 10 months. I had been praying for this very house. I told Joey that on the day of the closing I would have a wreath ready for the front door. A lovely wreath so that the sweet little neighborhood would know that soon someone would be making this place a home.

 

Joey drove us over after the closing just so that I could hang the wreath on "our" door.

Now the work begins! And so much work it is.

Sew Happy!

I don't often get to pull out the machine these days, but somehow it happened this evening.

Months ago now, I was throwing away a pair of pajama pants. Chloё began to cry. (yes, I mean that literally, poor child) I was throwing away something so beautiful. After all "green is my favorite color." And so I retrieved the item from the waste bin and began working on an idea that had little chance of coming to fruition.

Today a small miracle occurred. :)

 My own intention was to shorten those ribbons. But I lost my nerve when confronted by the green-eyed beauty who loves all things dangling.

I'm especially proud of the part you cannot see. It is neatly lined and (I used a pillow case for that part.) reversible. But I am certain that was only for my own learning as she will not be choosing the plain white....ever.
