So follow the blog now and add the your names.

It's so good to be back here. The last 2 months have been filled with so much that It was impossible to juggle everything. The plants in the greenhouse seem to be doing well, even though we had snow and cold temperatures this last week.

And finally, I need to get back to sewing and painting. So many ideas, so little time.

We have had the cutest baby goats born this spring. Stay tuned, there will be a contest to name them. Will post a picture of them tomorrow so stay tuned.

A Valentine for your home!

Stop by the website and see these sweet Victorian Heart Ornies/Bowl Fillers. They would be sweet tucked in a bowl or basket in an entryway or any room that you would like to decorate for the holiday. The fabrics are reminiscent of days gone by and a simple elegance.

Just what is needed to "Warm your heart" on these cold winter days.
