Inspiration.....from the Flower Bed

As a child I remember my grand father

telling me...

"When you work, you find money"

I would scratch my head and wonder just

what he meant by that?

As I grew up, I would help out with the household chores

and occasionally find money under the couch cushions.

As an adult, when I work I choose to find...

INSPIRATION

Today we spent the day cleaning out the flower beds.

I would have preferred to spend the day

in the Thread Shed with the sewing machine

humming along...

But, this was a job that could be avoided no longer!

The Roses needed trimming...

and so did the Calla Lilies...

All of the plants need to be tucked away for the winter.

This bumble bee was busy too!

As we trimmed down the flower beds...

There were so many pretty flowers still

putting on a show for us...

We decided to gather them up and bring them

inside to fill a few vases in the house...

We ended up with 5 Buckets of flowers!

Yes, we worked today...

But I found something worth more than money...

I found so much inspiration for my future quilts!

Please feel free to use these images in your personal

art work if they inspire you too!

I am hoping to be in the Thread Shed soon...
