I have a grandpug, and reading your post on Monty made me all teary thinking of the days when he and his 'mom' lived under my roof. <br />I just found your lovely blog following a trail on Pinterest. I'm making it my Wild Card Pick of the Week and featuring it on my blog next Week.

My Mom has sewn many a pillow and recovered many a chair and she will love this post. As for your pug, he is adorable - I design and sell custom cards, especially with dog breeds. Pugs are my top seller. This would make a terrific card! Stop by and visit sometime!

I am off to NYC today for a quick...Hello Everyone!<br /><br />I am off to NYC today for a quick visit and wanted to try to answer some of your lovely comments. As always, I never take you for granted and appreciate the time you take to comment.<br /><br />First, thanks for the nice comments about my new header. I have been digging out and sorting through a lot of digital photos as I learn my new Mac computer. Keep watch on my header, I think I like it for now and will keep it, but may change out the photos as I dig around but thanks for the encouragement! :-)<br /><br />Yes my "little" Monty is a ham, isn't he? If you look closely at his eyes, you can see they are half closed, and not bright-eyed and busy tailed as usual. That is because he is sort of "snoozing" on the pedestal in the sun!! He just woke up, as I said, and you can see it in his eyes - go take a look again, and you will laugh. I can feel his warm fur now as I remember taking him down and him leaning against my bare foot. :-)<br /><br />Thank you for the nice comments about the drapes - yes, they were fun to design and to be clear, someone asked about my sewing them and no, I have a wonderful friend and seamstress, Maureen, who does the sewing. She is VERY talented and ALL mine - well, at least I pretend she is.<br /><br />Pillows are probably my favorite to design - so many ways to fold, pleat, and squish fabric together. I really test Maureen when I hand her my drawings and measurements telling her exactly how many covered buttons, sewn exactly 1/8" apart, and 3/4" from the edge of the 1/4" flat cord that is 1/2" sewn from from the 5" wide shirred edge....you see what I mean? But I draw it all out with arrows, fabric samples, and exact measurements. Someday, I should scan them and show you - it would make an college math professor proud...or is that confused?<br />Either way, it is pretty detailed.<br /><br />Finally, hope I don't miss anyone because i am rushing, Chaisty, you get the night owl award because only minutes after I posted (3am, I think?) you commented! And then came back again after going to my Rate MY Space section HGTV!!<br /><br />Ruth, Margaret, Jenna, Sandra, Pandora, it is always good to hear from you. Julie what a nice surprise! Sharon, always good to hear from you and thanks for the nice compliment about the header. City farmer, Trash Talk, Masion st german, Sweet Old Vintage, Tattered Goods, Myrna, it always seems like my post isn't complete until I hear from you, Common Grounds, I am always glad you write, gives me a reminder to visit you, which I always do, and the rest of you, if I didn't mention by name, know that I love what you write because it makes me smile reading how my little blog has in somehow brightened your day whether you live in testosterone cabin, or up to your eyes in baby poop, it makes me laugh.<br /><br />Gotta go pack - I leave in a bit - yes, that's right, haven't packed OR called a cab yet. But that is the exciting part. Showing up and having an excuse to go out and get what I forgot.<br /><br />Love<br />ElizabethElizabeth Maxsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15301271156213625334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29659542.post-44476563338832832442010-02-04T07:44:59.709-06:002010-02-04T07:44:59.709-06:00BREATHTAKING!

So pretty and feminine...I'm craving some femininity currently, as I just moved into my new hubby's existing home. It's a beautiful log home that he built himself, however I'm having a tough time incorporating pink and florals into the existing decor!
