Sew Sew Days August, 2013
Posted By drsao on August 24, 2013
Catherine and I had our annual SEW SEW DAYS – last Tuesday and Wednesday. Those days were full of laughter, fun, tears (we went to see THE BUTLER), eating, sewing, shopping, doing my annual home renovation while my kids were gone on vacation, and of course we took pictures.
After looking at the pictures I think most of our time was taken up taking pictures of Oreo, Hannah, and Ruby (cat, cat, dog)….LOL.
So here we go with the picture proof of the fun….
Catherine’s sewing station!

Love Fest -Hannah and Catherine
Hannah was actually born in Catherine’s house before she came to live with me!
Hannah – close up – watching us sew!
Oreo doesn’t care if we are sewing or not – she is napping close by!

Ruby LOVES Catherine!
It is a yearly tradition – every time my kids and grandangels go on vacation, I do something to the house and Catherine helps! This year we made some flower arrangements!
Hanging flowers!
Flower boxes on the back patio
Entry table sunflowers and hydrangeas
And the big thing – Catherine arranged flowers and a CHICKEN in an antique vessel…..and she staged a wonderful front porch scenario! Catherine has so many special talents – and staging is only one of the things that she wows me with! The throw on the rocking chair is from my cousin, Janie, a centennial celebration of my dad’s hometown – Green City, Missiouri!
Midnight doesn’t care about the flower arranging – she is chasing bugs!
Catherine’s jewelry that she made – the photo doesn’t capture the beauty or the magnificence of the pieces….but she left me with the embellished black chain because I fell in love with it
It was lots of fun….as it always is when Catherine and I have our Sew Sew Days!
Treasured moments in time with special buddies, furry, two and four legged, simply the best. Pure escape, so much laughing and sharing and caring, feel good projects, a bit of shopping and eating and staging and did I mention laughing, just soooooooooo very wonderful…….. happy happy lucky girl, that’s me!!!!!!
