Your daughter is so talented-good job!
Redwork is pretty. My mom made me a little gardening girl-I’ll have to share her one of these weeks.

Oh, how I love redwork. I have a bunch of patterns that I got with the intentions of doing some of my own redwork. Then I couldn’t decide which one to do first! Love the polar bear, it’s adorable! Your daughter is so talented.

Manuela, those pillowcases are great! What a fine gift. Also, your daughter did a great job on her project.

Manuela,
I’m thrilled to see that you are once more blogging….I enjoyed The Feathered Nest immensely….

The red and white pillow covers are beautiful…Red is a color I use often in decorating….

Kellog is cute as can be…talented daughter…the apple doesn’t fall from the tree, does it?????

Blessings,
Betty @ Country Charm

The pillowcovers are lovely – I have not heard of redwork before. You captured it perfectly with your statement “Beautiful in its simplicity”.

Kellog is adorable!

LOVE the pillow cases…very pretty!

Kellog is pretty cute, too! You have a talented daughter.

I love the polar bear! That is so creative…let your daughter know that I think she is very talented…She gets it from her Mama! 🙂

Beautiful gift and very cute polar bear.

Thanks for sharing, and for visiting my blog.

Have a lovely weekend.

Hi Manuela. I love that redwork and the bear is so cute. Your daughter did a wonderful job on it. Guess we all know where she gets her talent. Have a great weekend.

Hey! My bloglines doesn’t seem to be updating properly, so I missed a few posts. Love all your pumpkin pretties and how sweet for Rosemary to send those redwork pillowcases to you…now that’s a very thoughtful blogfriend.

Have a great weekend!

Dear Manuela,
I love your redwork pillow covers. They are so beautiful and they go with your black and white toile perfectly! That was so sweet of Rosemary!

I love Kellog! Please tell your dear daughter she did a wonderful job making him and is very talented like her mom!

Thank you for letting me know the name of that shrub, Beauty Berry. That is a good name for it. I am sure your tiny acorns are sweet. I do not know why these are so big, but in our back yard there are some even bigger.

Have a lovely weekend!

Hi!
The Red Work is beautiful! I have a couple pieces I done. The bear is cute! Your daughter done a good job! Take Care!!

I like the redwork, but I love the polar bear! She did a great job – no wonder she wants to go to the art school.

Kellog’s very cute! And what pretty pillowcases your friend sent. 🙂

Ok now! Rosemary needs to be my friend too, I adore the pillow cases. I have wanted a set for about 20 years! I never found the pattern. They are so so wonderful!
Your daughter really did a great job on her bear!! Maybe she could make the red work. Just hoping! If anyone nows where I could get the pattern for the red work pillow case, I would love it so much.

Love the redwork! I have been looking for cases like that for a while.

Your daughters bear is wonderful!

Beautiful Redwork. I’ve been meaning to do some of that for the longest time…

Your daughter did such a nice job on her bear too! So cute!

What a work ! I would never have the patience for that, lol !

I love Redwork! Also, the polar bear is so adorable!

I love your pillowcases.

I am on post #99 so stay tuned. 🙂

What a beautiful gift. Very talented to do that.

What a wonderful art project! Your daughter did a GREAT job with that cute polar bear! love it!!!

Those are just beautiful. Thank you for sharing.

Your old prints are lovely. I love the florals, but I also like the saying. Have a great weekend.

what a lovely quote, I’ve never seen it before! That would be nice cross-stitched. hmmm…….

Have a great weekend, Manuela!

Hi Manuela! Very pretty picture and very lovely words of truth. I hope you have a wonderful weekend. Deb

Dear Manuela,

This is such a beautiful print and I love the saying. The watercolor roses are gorgeous too.

Thank you for visiting me and for your kind comments. Yes, I have seen Jane’s blog, yarnstorm. Thank you for mentioning it.

I have a money saving tip to contribute. I make our own toothpowder using equal amounts of sea salt, baking soda, and a little ground sage (which helps whiten your teeth). You can also use peppermint. I have some growing in my garden that I plan to dry, grind and add to the tooth powder. This cleans your teeth well and is very economical. I put the powder in clean glass spice jars that I saved to reuse, wet my toothbrush and sprinkle the powder on.

Have a lovely weekend, Paula

I love that print – not only the message, but the roses. What a treasure! Sally

That is lovely, even the frame is just right.

Hi, first time here, love your blog!
Caught a glimpse of your ceiling tile backsplash in one of your photos & was wondering if you could show/tell a bit about it. I am thinking about putting the same in my kitchen & would appreciate your tips, advice, etc as someone who has already been there/done that!!

Thanks. I will be visiting often!

I love the saying and the roses!

Thanks for the visit and comment about our bedroom re-do!!!

~Blessings,
Jan

Great print and a wonderful verse. Love it! Jean

Hello, Manuela! I just found your blog through another, though strangely enough, not Kelli’s even though I’ve been a regular visitor at her place for over two years now!

Just had to say hello after looking over some of your past posts, since we are so very much alike! I see we practice some of the same money-saving techniques: hanging clothes, saving water (you can also stick a container in your shower – we use our watering cans), “if it’s yellow let it mellow…”, thrifting, making due, doing it yourself, etc!

You have a lovely, warm looking home and a terrific blog. I’ll be back again and hope you drop by my little corner of the internet to say hello sometime.

Blessings,
Nicole

That is beautiful!

Those are really pretty. I like them a lot.

What beautiful pictures! Love the verse too!

Katherine

That’s a lovely print. It says it well.

Those are really pretty:) Love the saying!

What pretty pictures, the house blessing is my favorite. Thanks for dropping by for a visit.
Blessings, Karen

I assumed the lovely poem had been passed down to you through the generations. How lucky you were to find such a treasure. : )
M.L.

Hello Manuela,

The prints are beautiful – love that little poem!

HI there! Just found your blog! I actually painted that house blessing quote on my staircase wall in the home we just moved from. Everyone loved seeing that – you could view it from the entryway. It has to be one of my favorite sayings.
