Welcome to my Home
{note: since I've been sick for a week, I haven't gone out to take photos,
So I thought I'd show you my Welcome Banner in my front Hall}
And what it represents for me.....................
[Please join us at Lee Anna's Place to visit our group of positive quilters and
see what we like each week]
***************************************
I made this a few years ago during an online class with
Jude at Spirit Cloth's blog------ soon after my Mom's passing away.
It is all scissor cut and hand sewn together.
I used low key scraps and attached it to light weight muslin cloth.
{I like}💝 how
the
three little houses
in the woods--are sitting in front of those
trees...with the little one sheltering behind...
I used precious remnants
I had been hoarding...
then I hand stitched
freely...leaving some
edges raw...
Which {I like} 💗...................
I tried to depict the deep darkness of the woods at night with those owls....
and the BIG MOON radiating shafts of light:
A sort of kantha stitching trial....using perle cottons.....
As this was a memory piece also,
I included my Grand-mere's crocheted lace on top and
this one
little
shade pull
for "nighty-night" darkness
{ I like 💓} how the lace adds to that Olde World effect I was
hoping to achieve.....and times gone by...
Mom's little house wind chime for her window in her Nursing home
added another remembrance...
I Suspended it on a twisted branch cut from
the Home's garden on one of our last walks together;
and finally................................I added ....................................
One of the broken shells we so often would gather after our walks to the beach,,,
{I like}💔 how now, every time I walk by, I remember our times together...
*************************************************
I think that when you are sick, you want your Mom...I know I do///even at 76....💕
Hugs to you all; and thanks for bearing with me during my absence last week
Hugs, Julierose La Blageuse (Remembering-euse 💗💗💗)
