Your flowers are beautiful and I love the treasures you continue to find in granny's attic! The book, seed catalog and cards are all very pretty! I love all of the gorgeous flowers you have planted and the darling bird bath with the birdies on the side. Your quilt block is beautiful. I love the colors and the sweet pink and green bears! They were meant for you! I look forward to seeing the little desk painted. I love the color of the peonies. So cheerful and bright! I enjoyed your beautiful and happy post as I always do!
