Latest


Here is my latest obsession:)

 Knitting. You know I HAD to learn how, so I could do something with all that yarn I'm spinning!
 I actually did this as a test knit for a friend...so....I did it in record time....for me that is.
 From start to finish.....about 2& 1/2 weeks.
 I love how it turned out. I actually started a Margaret Dashwood shawl that I'm still working on, that is identical in color!......And it was NOT planned that way!!
 I haven't carried it yet. Still quite smitten with it...just in the "admiration" stage:)
 Just wanted to share!!
Have a MOST blessed evening girls!!!
Blessings~~Shine

Summer's End


Summer is going by mighty fast girls. 
                              Seems like it just began, yet here it is, time for school to start again.
That's the way it is with life. Time keeps moving...cycles keep turning. The flowers are so lovely,but soon they will turn colors...fall and then be bare...again.
I do love the changes. I love each season....and I am so thankful when each one comes in it's turn...just as was promised so many years ago.
Tomorrow I'll pull out the new school books and new stories will unfold. New beginnings....new cycles.....new challenges. I do believe I shall cut some summer flowers and take in the summer smells inside..
Blessings sweet friends~~Shine
