Welkom to Pumpkin Cottage in June
Words. Writing. Stitching.
Add embroidery to found vintage linens.
Just add a word or two in your own stitching.
Welkom, is Dutch for Welcome.
See the frame peaking through? The layered
paint is CeCe Cadwell and the idea came from
Debi's Design.
Pumpkin Cottage is in creative bloom.
Painting frames using tomato cages.

We All Need a Friend
People don't always need advice.
Sometimes all they really need is
a hand to hold, an ear to listen,
and a heart to understand them.
Zig Ziglar
My friend, Lori, is that friend.
Her parents, siblings,
and extended family are remarkable.
An All-American
family: loving, hardworking, inclusive
and supportive.
A few years back, our little family started
joining Lori's family at their
cabin to celebrate 4th of July.
For over 50 years the family has gathered
at the cabin to celebrate. My rendition
of the cabin when Lori's children were
small is depicted below.
Lori's mom entrusted me with her treasured
button box. In it were more than 50 years
of collected buttons, lace, and snaps.
I've used some of collection to represent
a winter day at the mountain cabin.
Last Thanksgiving, I asked the family
to each stitch a button unto the canvas.
Stitched with love for a very special friend.
A friend who helped me create through the
darkness back to the light.
Sometimes all they really need is

Sunday Sunday La La La
When I stand before God at the end of my life,
I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left
and could say, "I used everything you gave me."
-Erma Bombeck
The get along gang strives for this
everyday but never like when there's
no homework looming over one of us.
