two colors....black & blue.....











two colors display link with 1890 Gable House..................................my fist thought whirled around the new rug i am working on............................you all read the story of our new bed.......which all began with a black & blue quilt my mom loaned me years ago....it never went home..................................so the journey is finally coming together for our room.............the quilt now hangs from the canopy of our new bed.............blue coverlet......old black calico dresses.....an old blue photo album......blue calico snippets here and there...........................and this rug when finished will hang over the antique blue cupboard traded with a friend........i will look over at it every morning as I check the clock.........i will take in a sigh, feel a little pride for the most favorite rug i have ever made......relax.......breath in .....and out.....................thank God for another morning.........and realize....................................................i am blessed!

I just love your posts! You have a good soul!
You really appreciate life!

I simply love how you decorate,it says welcome to my primitive home! I love Black & Blues they are so clean & warm!

The Dresses remind me of my Aunt & Great Grandma, they always dressed like this, in the black & blues! I can remember their patches on their farm dresses! Thanks for bringing back some nice memories!

Beautifully done!
Have a beautiful fall day!
