Hello everyone!

This will be my first attempt at blogging so I hope you will all bear with me until I get my bearings.  My husband John and I live on a small farm (17 acres) in central Kentucky.  We don't operate it as a farm however.  I like to fantasize about sheep grazing out front and collecting eggs from the chicken house out back, but the only animal we will probably ever have is our indoor cat named Sophie.  We moved here 2 years ago and getting used to the area has been quite a journey ... but that's a story for another time.

I have not done much in the way of decorating the farmhouse because we weren't sure at first that we would stay here.  In reality we still aren't sure but, as the Magic 8-Ball might indicate, our staying here is "Most Likely."  There's a lot of work ahead of us if we do stay.

I enjoy quilting and making other things from fabric, painting, woodworking, and knitting.  My quilts and fabric art are created on an old Singer treadle sewing machine.  I love sewing on that machine   : )   I have suddenly become fascinated with gardening.  I'm told it's quite therapeutic and, as anyone would tell you, I need therapy ... lol!  I am studying gemology.  I love the primitive/country look in decorating.  I love my husband ... my high school sweetheart.  And last, but certainly not least, I love God.

I hope you'll come visit often!  I'm always ready to put the kettle on   : )
