Oh yes I did

-
 -- make yet more pumpkins!
 for these, I used those wool squares I bought and posted about here
--find more vintage Vera
 here are those pumpkins sitting on some Vera napkins...

 I like how the geometric scarf mixes oranges and pinks
--buy more vintage Christmas kitsch
--buy a grab bag of fabric


 I didn't expect it to include these finished quilt squares but I think they may end up in my Christmas crafts this year
I know.  I can't believe I did it, either.

That grab bag was a fun score with some neat vintage prints. Love those horses!

Well done YOU! The little pumpkins are very nice indeed! I would like to make a stack of them! Great for pin cushions I would assume.

Hello Laurie
Your pumpkins are gorgeous - I love the woollen fabrics - perfect for pumpkins!
I'm not really a halloween fan either - it's not a big thing over here really.
Enjoy your week.

It was January 25, and the air was filled with a kind of energy...tangible to those of us who had been watching, and waiting for this day. I myself awoke to remember a vivid and colorful dream, in which I had b ee n transported by a magic carpet, taken to a lovely home, high on a hill...a kind of castle... P residing over the beautiful home was a lovely lady... S he was a kind and attentive hostess, inviting me to take tea with her, and serving it in a wonderfully appointed room, using the finest china so that I felt like a Queen... W e spoke of beaut...

A new year

I hope this year will be much easier than the last one, for everyone I know.  I also want to say I'm sorry for not updating this blog since the end of October!  The end of the year was perhaps the worst of it; I'm not able to fake it very well, so instead of coming here and trying to be cheerful, I just don't come here! That's not to say we didn't have lovely holidays despite it all; we did! Here in Colorado January is off to a cold start; even though we get to see the sun on some of the chillier days, it's not possible to hang around outdoors. A frozen fountain I became ill shortly after the new year and continue to struggle with stuff (nothing real serious); I am looking forward to things being back to normal, so I can feel WELL and go back to the gym and have energy to spare! I don't think I posted about it here, but we did get a new kitten to keep Art company after he pined and paced over Paul Simon.  We thought we were getting a little boy...

Hello, world!  Welcome to my blog!   My name is Laurie, and I call my blog "Indulge Your Shelf" because I often post about the pretty things that catch my eye at antique stores, thrift shops, estate sales, street fairs, flea markets and the like -- and end up on my shelf at home, or in my Etsy shop by the same name !  My maternal grandmother had a great love for pretty old things, and it was she who taught me to rummage for treasures in thrift shops, to collect what I love, to sew, and to embroider.  And, that's another thing I write about often on my blog: creating! I love to sew and re-purpose vintage and antique linens into pillows and sachets, plus, I do a little bit of crazy quilting (and sane quilting, too); and, lately I'm big into paper crafting with ephemera.  In fact, I probably do paper art more than sewing these days.  I also do some regular, special event scrap booking.   I love paper -- the older the better!  I collect many small...
