I just got back home from the beach as I've been there since June 12th. I'll stay home for a few days and go back as school doesn't start until Aug. 12th. I enjoyed working on several projects and just wanted to share a couple. The wreath of course was for the 4th of July and at the bottom is my house number. I have a sign now on the front of the post that says beach:) I hope the pizza man can find me now as it seems he can't see the mailbox number!!
I love to sew just about anything. I also do lots of crafts and painting shabby chic. Sewing is something I've been since I was 11 years old. I made my first quilt top out of neon cotton material back in the 60's and now my daughter is the proud owner of the quilt. I make I Spy Quilts, I Spy Bags, Tooth Fairy Pillows, girls clothing, crayon aprons, pin cushions, just about anything. Sewing just gives me peace of mind and puts me in a comfort mode.

Beach plant wreath
I'm so happy with the way my wreath turnedout. I had to use fishing line and glue but finally pulled it all together.

What I've been making.
Well once again I'm at the beach for the summer. I have finished up with several projects which the first is our sign. I made the fence by myself with 21 boards and yes I had to start over a couple of times. My Dad taught me to love tools and to make whatever I had in my mind. I also took this boring brown chair to a white chair and bought a shirt which was the same colors as my bedroom and this is the way it turned out. I love it. I also have a few other projects going on that I will post later this week. I'm happy to say I'm down from 3 to 1 pill a day for my nerves. The memorial garden is helping with that. I'll post pictures later. Thanks to everyone who has hung in there with me through my Dad's sickness and death. Blogger friends are great friends to have.
