A very merry Monday to you, Sweetness. Gosh, I do believe it will be another glorious day! ๐
How about we head to my small foyer to see what quilts I put out on the thrifted shutters.

Now tell me. Do you have a favorite place that you like to decorate seasonally?
If you have a chance, drop back by tomorrow . I will be sharing more country clutter including the cross stitch pieces that I used in the foyer for the month.
As always,
Happy Stitching and Quilting, y'all

Hugs and Stitches!!! ๐ค๐งต
Dedicated to my dear sister, Amy. I miss and love you so much. ❤๐ผ
Two more thrifty finds that I purchased on the World's Longest Yard Sale. A cake plate and deviled eggs dish- perfect for the upcoming holidays.
I still have my favorite egg dish out for display . It has faux eggs in it.
I am joining these lovely ladies' link parties. I hope you check them out; they always have so many wonderful projects going on and provide the opportunity for other needleworkers to meet.

Oooh such pretty quilts! ๐
ReplyDeleteI have a dedicated spot for my decorations too. My hubby built me a beautiful shelf (one of those cube ones) I use to display my seasonal cross stitches and decorations on and he also built a matching quilt ladder that's right next to it so I can display my quilts. ๐ฅฐ Wish we had a bigger house though ๐
Thanks for sharing your collection and inspiring us! ๐ค

Your foyer is a joyous place, Melisa decorated with your quilts and other pretties. 'Tis a most welcoming spot.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, oh my goodness this is a delightful and wonderful post. I'm crazy about your Green Apple Butter quilt - it's beyond adorable. Seriously cute! I have a huge pile of small quilts and only a handful are quilted. It's time to get busy. LOL I have very little desire to make larger quilts. I usually have plans to decorate for the holidays but I seldom "git her done". LOL Do you happen to have any sage advice??? I will share that I have a huge stressor happening in my life that has me frozen in place - not sure that makes sense. Happy, happy Monday dear lady and thank you for sharing your beauties. Big, big hugs, DarleneJ
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful quilts. And nice thriftfinds. Oh my godness, I am sorting out what I never use. Bur my stitching things......NO!
ReplyDeleteYour decorations is really adorable.
Hugs from hot Germany,

Such gorgeous quilts, Melisa. Love them all! ๐♀️๐ค๐ Barbara @flashinscissors xxx❤️
ReplyDeleteI love all your quilts ! They are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty quilts. My seasonal quilt display is pretty much limited to the couch and my recliner.
ReplyDeleteWell, no seasonal quilts. I do have a small wall, where I change out my monthly and seasonal cross stitch smalls. I also have a hangar on one of the doors for seasonal cross stitch. Love your quilts - especially Hey Dey. Will be getting started on the bow tie quilt (pic I sent to you) when we get home to FL - looking forward to hand quilting it. Blessings!
ReplyDeletegood morning beautiful Melisa.
ReplyDeleteall of the quilts are wonderful and i do no have a favorite. i hang and lay quilts everywhere - on the bed, wall, couch, back of a chair, stacked on chairs, everywhere. i love quilts. i love color and quilts add lots and lots of color.
remember Melisa - you are awesome.
you have a lovely heart and i know you are such a caring person. your a wonderful daughter, wife, mama, gramma, and anything else that comes to mind.
i hope you have a fantastic Monday. my daughter is here from Arizona and i am so happy that she is here. she'll be with us until Thursday and then she's off to see my grandsons (her favorite humans) in Washington for a few days. we will see here again when she returns from Washington to pickup her puppy, my grandpuppy (12 year old Dusty).
blessings and love are on the way to you. add a great big squeezy hug in the mix.

I love seeing your quilt decked out shutters, Melisa. I really love them all, but I think my favorite is the mini one. Happy Monday!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had fun on your garage sale trip;) Yes I decorate our foyer in one corner for the different holidays and seasons.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty displays Melisa! I used to collect deviled egg dishes as well as cake plates, so I LOVE your purchases.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a pretty start for Fall,I have a few quilt tops in the sewing room that will never get quilted,I luv them just the way they are,I have friends & family over for Sunday dinner the 1st day of Fall so decorating is about to start happening lol
ReplyDeleteWhat a great finds you are sharing from the longest yard sale! Beautiful quilts on display at your home too. Monthly is my goal to switch out quilts. . .but, I've been remiss in that for the past three months!--TerryK@OnGoingProjects
ReplyDeleteI really like your shutter display idea--I don't have a specific display spot for seasonal quilts--mostly on dining table and draped over my Grand-mere's old caned rocker...I would love a quilt ladder though--on the lookout for one that doesn't cost the earth!!
ReplyDeleteHot and humid here today--82 already at 9:30 a.m. and dewpoint up to 70--AC for me hugs, Julierose
You have some lovely quilts to display. The cake plate and egg dish were nice finds. Looking forward to seeing tomorrow's cross stitch pieces.
ReplyDeleteI love seeing your quilts as you change them out for the seasons. Hey Day is wonderful - the cheddar with red and blue is such a great combination. And Green Apple Butter just makes me want to get out some scrappy squares and sew! Lately I'm decorating the small chest by our front door for seasons and holidays. It's in August sunflower mode right now!
ReplyDeleteHola Meli buenos dias y feliz semana llenita de nuevas puntadas y de nuevos "Tesoros" para comprar jajja. Me encanta cada imagen e historia que cuentas. Y me encantan los recibidores pero esta vez NO tengo en este nuevo apartamento... otra de las partes que me gustan decorar es la cocina y los baรฑos! jajja besitos
ReplyDeletePretty plates. I always forget my egg plate when I make deviled eggs. I remember when you made Hey Day. Such a bright and cheery quilt. I really like that pattern. I am not a big seasonal decorator. I have a bowl and pitcher on the side board that I put seasonal things in like leaves, flowers, snowballs with faces, dead branches with little ghost or snowflakes ornaments hanging. Nothing compared to your amazing bounty.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful as always, Melisa! Hugs.
