Goodies in the Mail!!!

I ordered a candle mat from Brenda, Pine Tree Prims, even though I make candle mats, I get tired of my

own things. Well what a beautiful candle mat Brenda made, and her stitching is perfect!

 I told her how much I loved her little stitchery pillows. Well when I received my candle mat,

guess what she included. Two of the cutest little stitchery pillows. They are so beautiful.

Thank you Brenda, I know you put alot of work into your pillows and candle mats.

I love them and thank you from the bottom of my heart!!! Aren't blogger friends the greatest!!!

Pa. trip goodies!

I will show some pictures of some of the flowers that I got on my trip to Pa. I would have loved to

taken  some pictures of the greenhouses, of all the beautiful flowers, but the Amish are private and do not like

us Englisher's taking pictures of them.

 I bought some fabric, but am saving it to make some bonnets and crafts. I will post them later, if

I ever have time to make them.

 And here is a prairie dress and apron that I bought. I have been wanting a prairie dress for a long time

to hang on a peg rack. I also bought a few other goodies that I will just show in one photo.

I bought some asparagus, we stopped at a road side stand and they were sold out so the little Amish boy,

just went right to his garden and picked me a bunch, you can't get no fresher than that. We always have to

get farmers cheese and Pa. Dutch Lebonnen bologna.
