ReplyDeleteLove your collection of 12 things and your inspiration (what a cutie-pie!).
Brilliant!!! Loved seeing your dozens, and esp Boo! xo
ReplyDelete12 seems to be a perfect number! Great inspiration for all! :-))
ReplyDeleteLots of 12's today huh? (((grin)))
ReplyDeleteI'm inspired to start journaling - Am I the only last person to do this? I make lists and jot notes, but I don't keep them, or journal on a regular basis. Love seeing the inspiration in your items, but I don't believe all of those spools of thread are new - heee heee!! You saved the best for last though, and I am reminded of always trying to be better myself when I see or hear things my daughter is doing with my granddaughters........ I must have done something right along the way.

What a great idea! Love your groups of 12! After seeing your post, I did one like it.
ReplyDeleteBoo is growing up so fast! To be the best we can be for our kids is the greatest gift we can give them. Love to see her creating her own stitching adventures.
ReplyDeleteAND she's beautiful inside and out!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely young woman-to-be.
ReplyDeleteI've noticed your chalk ware in some backgrounds, fun to see them up close. And makes me happy that so many of your favorite books are my favorite books.
Your 12 year old is gorgeous. You are so lucky to have her and how wonderful of you to think of including her.
ReplyDeleteLovely :) especially the last!
ReplyDeleteLove those knick-knacks but your 12 year old smiling is the best. :-)
ReplyDeleteof course I had to smile at the 12 reproduction fabrics AND the 12 books almost all about antique quilts and the last one just precious.
