Farmhouse Traditions: Mother's Day crochet flowers
http://farmhousetraditions.blogspot.com/2015/03/mothers-day-crochet-flowers.html
Sweet vintage home sewn. Sunday, 15 March 2015. Mother's Day crochet flowers. I have been working on creating a crochet flower corsage over the last couple of weeks. There is an abundance of patterns for this purpose-the crochet flower is more than well documented! However, I wanted something that was exactly right as I wanted a special flower for today- Mother's Day. As I used 4 ply cotton and a 2.75mm hook with the measurements suggested the rose would come out a little small so I adjusted it start...

Farmhouse Traditions: August 2016
http://farmhousetraditions.blogspot.com/2016_08_01_archive.html
Sweet vintage home sewn. Saturday, 20 August 2016. It's a lovely summer again with lots of visits this year from family. I love to make a little keepsake gift for my adorable niece and nephew and this year decided to make them a patchwork cushion to take home. Now for me, making anything for a boy is quite a challenge-I just have never had the practice and can't say my interest runs to football and the like! However, there is one theme that I do enjoy and it is so linked to Cornwall.pirates! After much r...

A Boutique Blog that Celebrates the Stylish Side of 60! Thursday, September 27, 2012. Tea at the Plaza with Eloise and Madeline.

Every autumn, when I was a little girl, my Mother’s Aunt Annie and I would take the train from Philadelphia to Manhattan. But the best was yet to come! As I sipped my tea and drank in the beauty of m...

Enjoying Life One Sip and Stitch at a Time . Saturday, December 24, 2016. December is a busy time for all. A month that's full of preparation and reflection. This year was a whirlwind around here as we had a granddaughter in. There was a week of dress rehearsals every day leading up to a weekend with three beautiful, magical performances. December night. The temperature was twenty-one degrees below zero with a big, fluffy snow blizzard whipping all around us. I will never forget it. Kari, Me, Judi. Who i...

Thursday, August 13, 2015. Olive, Wine and Gold join A Common Wardrobe, warm tones for summer. In honor of the season (in the Northern Hemisphere) of the ripening of all delicious things, I give you the "Tuscan inspired" wine, olives, and gold that was sent to me a few days ago.
