Good evening, Sweeties. I meant to post this post a few weeks ago, but as always time has escaped me. Anywhoo... each January I like to share a parade of homes that I have shared over the last few years for reference. 

  I have tried to organize them by a month or theme.  If you see any that you are interested in knowing more, about click on the colored text ,and you will magically be taken back to that post. I hope you enjoy.

FARMHOUSE THEME


Can you guess which are the most popular this past  year?  

Well for the 2nd year in the row 

#1 is Spring Green Saltbox 

#2 Winter Saltbox

The #3 spot for the most popular post happened to be two quilts which warmed my heart. 

Wild , Wild Roses Quilt

Wild , Wild Roses pieced and awaiting a border. 

Miss Autumn 16 Patch 

Autumn 16 patch is made up of 2" squares ( 2 1/2" unfinished)

It is always hard for me to choose a favorite particularly since so many of them are named after my family members, but as of right now - Pumpkin Blossom Inn is still my favorite. But the Maize House was a delight to stitch this past year. 

If I have missed any of the houses that should be in the parade, please let me know. 

Thank you so much for stopping by and looking at my little village.Have a wonderful day, Sweeties. 

As always...

 Happy quilting and stitching, y'all
