They are beautiful and it would have been such a shame for them to be burned. We saw some really lovely chairs out on the side of the road yesterday that really only looked like they needed some TLC but don't have the place for them, otherwise would have scooped them up. There so much that needs some sanding or a lick of paint and it would be good as new but people just keep throwing and buying new stuff. Your blanket is coming along nicely. Very sweet and thoughtful of Piper to send you a thank you. Gratefulness and kindness really do matter. Take care of yourself.

I saw one a few years ago here in OK that was refinished and we went home to talk about it and when we went back it was gone. Kind of regret that.

Piper's sweet note of thanks, more pretty rows on your blanket, a brave winter rose and lovely Lilies in this season are encouraging to see as well.

It doesn't seem little to me but definitely cosy. Beautiful home! I am amazed at the marvellous restoration work that has been done on your family heirlooms. Antique furniture has an essence that modern furniture just cannot produce. The wood alone is by far superior! This is why I like to buy second hand or antique furniture if I can. Such a sweet card from Betsy's grand-daughter. Books as a gift are one of the best presents for sure! Beautiful lilies and the colours match the yarn for your meadow blanket. keep well Amanda x Crafty in the Medhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15365932964481050936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8865022255438031627.post-12923644686382209062021-01-14T01:23:28.021-08:002021-01-14T01:23:28.021-08:00Wonderful drive,congratulations,God blesses Americ...Wonderful drive,congratulations,God blesses America and I hope all will be well,greetings from anna Nowe Przygody z drutamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04144123447667552709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8865022255438031627.post-7171663419783950992021-01-13T22:57:00.506-08:002021-01-13T22:57:00.506-08:00Hi Teresa!

The first time I was there in the winter was when we moved Mandy there. The area around her apartment was beautiful with geraniums of all colors in full bloom. I didn't want to come home to the snow. And we had a LOT that year.<br />I enjoyed seeing all about your furniture again. I had forgotten much of it, especially about the table. It's so pretty now.<br />Aww, Pipers card is so sweet. You can tell she's trying to learn cursive. Not bad for 2nd grader. :-). It was sweet of you to send her the books. She loves books, just like the rest of the family.<br />Take care and tell Dayle hi for Dennis.<br />Blessings,<br />BetsyBetsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00807691752817225336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8865022255438031627.post-43942459775545150662021-01-13T22:09:24.171-08:002021-01-13T22:09:24.171-08:00I like your older family furniture.

And they look just so amazing now! Well worth saving and cherishing. There really isn't much in the way of modern furniture that has that quality, longevity and character about it. It's all cheap, mass produced rubbish designed to only last a couple of years :(<br />We are glued to our tvs and interwebs down here waiting for when you can finally kick 45 out of office. What a joke that thing is. <br />I love the progress on your meadow blanket. Lucy has such an eye for colour that I'm so envious! I am tempted to make the Meadow Harmony blanket. <br />Sending you biggest hugs and love.
