Friends on Friday( and a new baby)

"...understand that to nurture and love others with the grace you desire means taking care of yourself and cultivating your own inner harmony. Inner harmony grows not by finding ways to get away from your child, but by giving yourself the gift of a hot bath at the end of a long day, reading a book of poetry, talking to a friend on the phone, taking a nap, crying, getting a massage, having a day off from cleaning and cooking, staying in your pajamas all day, swimming, going out to eat, or attending a conference. Do something for yourself as you give. Learn to laugh at yourself and not take yourself so seriously."
~ Peggy O'Mara, The Way Back Home( found via here )







We moved outside and sewed, drank tea and created together then I continued on into the afternoon all by myself with just my own thoughts and the birds to listen to .After such hot hot weather it was a refreshing hint of Autumn.

The project above was continuing on with my challenge to use up some of my already thrifted goodies. I used this tutorial as inspiration.
I made two ,to gift my two beautiful sisters with....

Oh! which my youngest has just blessed us with the PINK VARIETY!!!!!!
