sleeping in lol

Sheets on my line...and Yes Peonie sheets,

 my darling does not have

any say of the colour and style of sheets that go on our bed...

( if he wants to sleep with me that is...) lol

Mmmm would they not make a scrumptious backing for a quilt?

Do you know I sat there on the deck stairs for 16.2 minutes

to capture this shot where the wind would just lift up the corners

of my sheets to the sky...Even had my timer on...yes I did!

And I thought, why can't PELLON make me some sheets,

they are doing everything else these days...

I want crisp white sheets... I want to cuddle with PELLON! :)

And then I thought...why not a PELLON Giveaway

OUR CHEERLEADER of this Blog hop

Every MAN needs one of these!

About a year ago a dear lady who was a frequent guest here, brought along her Erma

Bombeck humor, you may remember her Nan from Pots and Pins...

She loves to cook almost

as much as she loves to quilt. She tells me

she will be begging soon to hop with us...

Well begging is not necessary, just bring your wit with you

is what I told her...

In the meantime....I give her credit for coming up with the idea...

 I updated the list and the look, and made it into 5 x 7 card that is 

found on my DH's side table.

He really does have a great sense of humour and really

appreciated the new lines lol

Yeah right...lol

But it makes for a lovely post this morning...

and gives us an opportunity to scream

for Nan. COME BACK NAN, we miss you!

Sew here you go, save it in jpeg or png and copy

and print, and I laminated mine locally for a whopping

.50 cents...

And thanks to Nan, she loves FANS ....

I think she calls us that...lol

What other lines could be added...???

Maybe we can come up with a library of cards

in honor of our Nan lol

 I Had some time to take a stroll with my camera this morning
thought you would enjoy the view too..

Note here, I did not do anything but focus and shoot..

The view from our deck...see the corners of the garden, those are
2 barn doors that a dear Evelyn, found me this past summer...

and yes we are Pepper farmers...we have a total of 8 peppers...

yep from only 2 plants. lol

I started these phlox from seed, they were supposed to be ground cover,

now they hover over 5 feet tall and are an amazing backdrop to our 

all white garden... They just started blooming a week ago..

Is that not amazing..look at those dew drops just holding on... many dozens

of buds still coming..

Ohhhh what is fall without MUMMS...this arrangement is about 3 feet in diameter...

Yes love white flowers...we have an arrangement with the bees, to 

not pollinate any colour...they have been heeding our requests...

 Ohhh this one is a perfect symmetrical 1 foot baby Mumm's...

Remember the metal dress I made last fall, well we needed to find
it a home...we placed it by our deck and planted some vines...
they are very happy..already climbing our barn wall...


Ok, that is it for me today...I have a few meetings
to get to...
Thanks for joining me in the garden this morning...x
