Christmas has come early!
Look what just arrived in the mail.
As a RAOK and a personal acknowledgement of her enjoyment of my blog, Julianne sent me this wonderful Prairie Schooler ornament.
The stitching is lovely, as is the finish.
Front...
...and back.
The motif of the chipmunk is a huge delight!
It's just darned perfect, and so appreciated...
...appreciated by everyone!
And I do mean everyone!
We take bird watching very seriously here at Clos du Bois.
Padma is one of our Resident Experts.
He knows all about Morning Doves.
He recognizes noisy Hairy Woodpeckers.
This one is extracting a peanut from the feeder.
Padma longs for a "V" of geese to land in the backyard.
Quail though, as they are often walking rather than flying, are amongst his favorite birds.
Aww! So sweet and thoughtful.
ReplyDeleteOh that's so cute - good for you, and kudos to Julianne.

ReplyDeleteThat ornament is adorable! I was going through a huge box of cross stitch books and pamphlets someone just gave me and I came across several wildlife designs from Prairie Schooler that made me think of you.
