The ins and outs of linen. Not always. But certainly this time. When unpacking my Christmas stitches I remembered that a Teresa Kogut piece was done on Confederate Gray (my first time with that color). I hated it. Too pink when mixed in with other finishes .... until .... I turned it to the other side. Loved it. So I unfolded my new linen and peeked inside and there it was. The less pink softer color that is agreeable to me, no need to return it. I never thought to unfold the fabric and look inside and am surprised at the difference.
Received my Early Homes magazine. It's not as many pages as the other primitive publications, but I love it as well. Lots of sources for colonial and early style, not as extreme and "grungy". Twice a year is not enough for me, wish it was quarterly, but it is more of a special publication from Old House Interiors and I have every issue from the beginning. If you can't find it, you can order from their website, https://www.aimmedia.com/early-homes/. I have auto ship so I don't miss an issue.
It's December and we have two more days of decent temps, trying to get the leaves done. Mark has an issue with his foot and needs a cane to (painfully) walk so I will be on my own which is fine with me, but not good for the shoulder. Leaving shortly for my sister's because those two PITAs can't figure out how to use that Lightkeeper tool to fix the Christmas lights. Again. I told her she better get her butt out of the house and into a store, not just restaurants. I can't remember the last time she got her own groceries and necessities. Then we're off to the doc for injections in his foot.
Hope your day is a good one.
Thanks for visiting.
