This is no ordinary barn....

 

 

....Not anything like the barn on the farm where I grew up.  In fact I could move right in to this barn.

 

 

A view from up above....the mantel of the fireplace overflowing with autumn splendor.

 

The wonderful and unique chandelier decorated as well....all so lovely.

These photos were taken from the third level.

Just so sweet it found it's way on here twice!  :-)

 

With cooler weather we are once again sleeping beneath a quilt.  I'm here to tell you that it is the very best sleep.  Nothing finer!

 

I've been busy creating, and once this quilt show comes to its conclusion I will share with you.  The time is drawing near, when I will have baby news and we are getting soooooo excited.

As only weakness can;

God hath his small interpreters;

The child must teach the man."
