Does Anyone Else Have

The Winter Blues?

 

Good morning friends.

Well it seems that Punxsutawney Phil

did not see his shadow this morning.

Guess he forgot to tell Mother Nature

here in Michigan because it has been snowing

all morning.

 

Bob has already shoveled the sidewalk twice

in front of our store.

 

So does anyone else wish Spring would get here soon?

I cannot wait to see our Big Rive blue again,
with the freighters heading up and down.

Feeling the blues a bit, so decided to show you
some of my favorite blues.



 

My recent score is this old blue and white quilt top.

The shoppe owner who I bought it from

said it would make a great cutter quilt.

"Oh no...I won't cut this up". I told her.

 

 

Even though I do not smoke,

I love to collect old tobacco tins.

 

 

Another one of my blue quilts.

(I have this one at the store for displays currently)

The crock pitcher is a new find.

This one is a 14 inches high.

Circa 1860 Southern Bennington.

 

 

For those who would like to date brown crocks and jugs,

look for the iridescence in the brown.

These are all civil war era.

 

On another note,

cannot wait to see all the amazing

 Superbowl Commercials tomorrow.

Bob and I will be watching the game at home,

and I will make a few appetizers.

Go Ravens!

Plus only 4 more days for my Valentine Heart drawing.
I am so close to 200 and would like to have another drawing for my
200 follower giveaway.
So tell your friends they might have a chance to win two giveaways! 
 

PS. Will someone tell Phil to talk to Mother Nature for us.

Please

 

Weekend Blessings To All!
