echo::home goods






This farmhouse baby girl quilt,
quilt bag and
vintage linen bunting...
was shipped to a very special little one.

My niece and her husband are
expecting their first.
My big brother is going to be a Grandpa.
We don't know her name yet but any
little girl could use a farmhouse quilt.

My quilts are inspired by Grandma Lena.
Her quilts were beautiful and I have several.
Grandma Lena passed away years ago and
I want to start a tradition of 
making quilts for the new additions 
to our family. 

Finch - from my farmhouse to yours.

Cut some bittersweet today
hung a small wreath on a 
rusty pumpkin..
a birdhouse...



...and in the window box
outside my kitchen window.
It's exciting to see it full of birds scavenging
for food on the first snowfall of the year.
After the berries are eaten
the vines are good to leave in the 
window box to keep the birds from building
nests in the Spring.

Then I stacked wood
getting ready for the week ahead.
It's been pleasant today 
here in the Ozarks.
A roaring fire will feel good 
on the cold nights ahead.

beautiful sunny morning in the Ozarks
sitting in the rocker by the sunny window
still enjoying my pumpkin coffee 
(I have a stash of pumpkin coffee)
hand stitching binding on 4 new echo:: home goods quilts
noticed how the sun made the quilts glow
listening to 
The Civil Wars - Barton Hollow
beautiful music to sew by


 decided to take some....home....photos





with the sun shining the living room looks bright
the sun was warm
the fireplace was warmer





notice the sunny glow
the crate behind the rocker holds several 
grandma Lena quilts
that I inherited
~*~
my inspiration



here are 4 scrappy linen echo:: home good quilts
I'll be listing them in the shop as a quilt/bunting set
the buntings were cut from vintage, thrifted bed linens
there were enough scraps from making buntings
that I decided to make several 32" square...
baby quilts
shabby chic table toppers
lap quilts



these photos were taken before the quilts were
wash and dried
they will soon be listed in my shop .
