MY FAVORITE TREASURE THUS FAR!

I saw a booth table and bench set years ago at an Antique Mall.  And I passed it up because I didn't think there was anyplace I could use it. I've never forgotten it either! So when I saw this one their was no second thoughts! I had to have it even though we were out of town with only our van! But my patient husband made it work!

We put it right in the middle of our enclosed back porch (I thought it would need a cozy wall area) And I just love it!!

We initiated it this morning with a pancake breakfast!

The selfie didn't do so hot!

I've had to take a break on cross block making even though it's great fun! My Ladies Tea project is taking all my time! Will show them next post!

I attended a Watercolor Workshop by Barbara Neff last Saturday

There were about 12 of us hard workin arists!

These are my paintings: " Vivid Cabbage Roses" and-

"Sweet Wildflowers"  Hope you're enjoying your spring!

Oh I love your dinette. We had a similar one in our kitchen as a child which my father built. Brings back memories!
I admire your attempts at the water colour painting. Just fabulous!
