sisters weekend day 1

our day started with a walk to the wharf

we stopped along the beach

mom and noel

little miss perry joined our sister's weekend

and our day ended with my local produce stand:

it was a fabulous day!

ready for company

my guest room was lacking some funk, 

so i whipped up this pillow when i should have been cleaning:

our first pickings

from sheryl's side: organic blend of baby greens

our spinach is almost ready:

and just in case you want to know what i look like while weed-wacking:

my hunter boots are my favorite yard accessory!

at the end of the day...

i look like this:

my room looks like this:

and my side of the bed looks like this:

UGH!

he's so gonna kill me for this someday

i promise, i did not encourage this in any way, shape, or form. 

he dressed himself all on his own.

just for the record.

thrifty beach quilt

i'm finally back in the groove of things, and all i want to do is quilt! 

i've collected a few vintage fabrics from thrift stores in the form of sheets or pillowcases. 

some of them are so fun retro, i can't even stand it. 

i thought these fabrics would be perfect for a throw quilt for the beach or the park. 

ya know, something that can get dirty.

here's my start. we'll see what i can get done before this weekend...

my sisters and mom are coming to town for a girl's week!
