Cute!<br />One of my favorite children's books is Stuart's Cape by Sara Pennypacker & illustrated by Martin Matje. Stuart has a magic cape and one day he finds toast seeds in it's pocket which he plants and grows 'toast'.mum4305https://www.blogger.com/profile/03471659594035125696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551696592048647882.post-79171810994025526952012-06-29T12:03:58.038-05:002012-06-29T12:03:58.038-05:00I am waiting for the rain to begin again, we have ...I am waiting for the rain to begin again, we have had plenty but more is coming. Some place in Canada are flooding. <br /><br />We cleaned up a fallen tree and a corner of the yard. Now I have a new place to plant some pretty daisies. I love daisies, my Grandmother put some in my hair when I graduated from high school, let's see now, 34 years ago. One piece of the tree trunk had a wood pecker nest, it's about 6 inches around and 15 inches deep. I will plant a flower in it. Enjoy your day.mum4305https://www.blogger.com/profile/03471659594035125696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551696592048647882.post-44744644644619785062012-06-29T11:53:50.253-05:002012-06-29T11:53:50.253-05:00My 92 yr old mother who has late-stage Alzheimer&#...My 92 yr old mother who has late-stage Alzheimer's taught me how to sew.

It's handmade by elderly women in a nursing home there. Their caregivers painted on the faces after the residents hand stitched the pin cushions. I'm sure you'll love it, and I'll send you a note when I do publish that blog post. <br />It may be awhile though because we're heading out to visit family in a few days. Take care Linda, I'm really glad to see you enjoying your summer vacation from work.Patriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14419247007165644339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551696592048647882.post-47566163615596932262012-06-28T10:44:48.202-05:002012-06-28T10:44:48.202-05:00I love your new tomato pin cushion creation, very ...I love your new tomato pin cushion creation, very well done!

I went to my quilt club this morning and we talked about the bus trip to Des Moines, IA, in October for the quilt show. Went to lunch with a friend and did some computer work in the afternoon and prayer service at church this evening. I am working on a baby quilt tomorrow for our grandson on the way. I love your tomato pin keep. I have a tomato shaped store bought one but it is really ugly next to yours. :D Love your creativity! ♥ This is my vote 1.

I had NO IDEA this was happening; until he showed up at my door; dirty, hungry & sunburnt from walking. He said "Grandma I prayed and right after that a nice lady picked me up and gave me $50, then when she dropped me off a nice truck driver picked me up and drove out of his way to bring me to you." I cried; God does answer prayers; he watched over my dear Grandson (age 16) and brought him to me. I thought of you dear new friend. :)<br /><br />Hugs, Shar~*Sharee*~https://www.blogger.com/profile/05366622851676919638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551696592048647882.post-30179927119929622182012-06-27T20:07:31.312-05:002012-06-27T20:07:31.312-05:00Oh I do love this sweetie tomato!

What a talented lady you are. Hot here in Wisconsin today as well, sounds like it will be this way for a few days with little to no chance of rain.

Our green bean plants look really nice & are blossoming can't wait for the beans, one of my favorite garden items.
