...Ahh The Memories of This Summer!

The Summer has passed and at times this early Autumn you wouldn't know it by the temperatures! The first half of October was still hot and humid! Then it was wintery cold in the evening time!

I have been taking that trip down the memory lane, particularly today.



Laundry were dried in the fresh air, 
the scents of Heaven to my nose.


First time that my Wisteria bloomed in an abundance! 
More scents from Heaven.


The battle between the Squirrel and the Beagle, 
never ending!

More laundry for the fresh air, 
Laundry never ending!

Quilt blocks made for the swap on MaryJanesFarm Connection,
colorful to my eyes.


Kitchen Angel made for another swap on MJF!



Pine-needle baskets made from Nature.


My first Redwork on pillowcases... made for a barter!


A new addition to our family!


The harvest of juicy Blackberries!


I bagged these blackberries and put them into my freezer. Yesterday I was looking in the freezer for something and saw these beauties. I grab one bag and held them close to my heart and smiled. These became the most wonderful dessert today! I hunt for the right recipe online last night since my cookbook could not provide the right recipe. I found one that caught my eye. I read it through and said YESSSS! This is the one that I remember having as a youth at my Grandparents home at the lake. Then I saw the source for the recipe and my heart leaped. I know that Blogger, The Pioneer Woman and she also has a Basset Hound (Charlie).

The Blackberry Cobbler #1 recipe was the one that I was looking for!
 So I created and baked this earlier!


 The taste of Summer!



I was in the mood today to continue baking something else. 
Autumn does that to me.  So, these rolls were also made!


Summer... I look forward to you again next year. What will you bring?

But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen!

...A New Book That Surged My Tatting Fingers On!

Image
 I have few books for tatting instructions ...how to Celtic, how to needle, how to shuttle and numerous pages of patterns for tatting from online, doily this, edging that, motif those. I wanted something more or different to do. After Christmas I batted my puppy dog eyes (hubby says they are) at Hubby for a book that I wanted for Christmas but did not get. He faltered (I am so bad, I knew he would) and said for me to order it. I ordered it and it arrived sometime last week. I have been tatting my fingers off with glee! After all, this girl here received lots of threads and shuttles for Christmas... from that sweet Hubby! The book that I had to have was,    A TATTER'S WORKBOOK, edited by J&K. Kliot Approximately 172 patterns, 112 pages. Includes corner and straight edgings, medallions, round doily borders,collar border. This is a most unusual and fascinating collection of tatting patterns as recorded in a New England notebook by an anonymous tatter in the 1920's. The pa

...To Chain or Not To Chain!

Image
I have been tatting my heart out since the Palmetto Tatting Guild's Tat Days this past year. I have come a long ways since. I have researched on tattings and tried many patterns... I still am, to improve my abilities and develop "my style". My daughter has become an amazing tatter in jewelry with updated modern twist. She just amazes me to no end. As my confidence grew, my style is also growing. Maybe I should say preferences instead of style. I have learned that I do not "like" to create things without patterns. I am not "into" making things other than doilies and edgings but if needed to will do the other things. I also am not at all keen on tatting with the ball of thread, multiple shuttles, ends and sewing in ends... I like doing one shuttle, less stuff to fuss with.  Now with that said.. I prefer rings and chains. So I had to make a compromise with myself and use the ball or use the second shuttle as the ball. Then again, I am falling in love wi
