Love that yo-yo quilt! What a find!
Grateful that there is a Christina in your life to inspire you on your quest for your own particular beauties.
Awesome.
What a wonderful post.
lovely. and I love that in the last photo, the white light is heart-shaped.
the simple things are the best. they just are.

wonderful things, love the quilt and the cat, oh my. take care.
What a good list! I love the last picture, especially . . . so magical.
(back in England on Sunday; I owe you a long catch-up)
You lucky girl! Your Grandmother's yoyo quilt! It's fantastic. I have a yoyo pillow top of my Granny's. And my sister just made a yoyo quilt for her first grand daughter.
And Christina is the best! I sent her birthday wishes too.
I'm just back from vacation and off to catch up on your posts that I missed. Have a great weekend,

I am here trailing behind Christina, gathering up empty tea cups and plates, it was a wonderful party, simply wonderful ;-)
I love the post above this by the way ...
I had good intentions of doing a yo you quilt and then grew weary of making endless yo yo's. I am one that almost needs instant gratification. I did make pillow covers. Now I see this beautiful quilt and maybe I will just get inspired again. I still have 800 or so done. Maybe another 1800....
