"Lakeside Buoys" copyright Michelle L. Palmer

We have a blanket of white this morning with gentle snow falling.
My heart is lakeside... longing for warmth & sunshine.
Ready to dip toes in the water~

These buoys were licensed for notecards and dinner napkins
years ago. A fishing camp I visited nearly 30 years ago.
I couldn't stop photographing buoys!
Wishing I had taken more photographs of the handsome
cabins and boathouses.

I dyed the background wool: ProChem straw with mouse grey and
a touch of periwinkle. Some of the darker areas worked nicely
for the rope shadows. Hooked with #6 and #7 cut wool strips.

Hope you're all staying strong and healthy!
Thank you for stopping by~

Blank Greeting Cards to Color


My friends and I hope your weekend is off to a great start~
Hope you're all staying strong and healthy.


Penny for your thoughts!
This dear little friend is keeping her prices low~ giggle... 

Or send along the card as is for your recipient to color.
All of my pen & ink greeting cards are blank inside.





We're expecting winter weather this weekend.
December and January have been uncommonly warm and green~
Two lawn daisies have blossomed in our side yard!
I will pick them and bring them indoors before the snow & ice arrives.
Soup will be simmering and a new rug hooking mat started.

Take good care, Friends~
Wishing your hearts peace and happiness
