Red and Green and Precious

A winter storm today is turning our world outside sparkly white and crispy cold!
In stark contrast
the wood fire is burning fire red and turning our inside world toasty and warm.
The comforting colors of red and green seem to pop out at me.
Precious tiny red vintage hand knit mittens (with no thumbs!) are displayed on a tiny hand sewn quilt made by a precious friend.





Red and green, the colors of Christmas.
Warm the heart.
Please my eye.


Even Max likes red and green!




Precious!

    You're right Cathy, it's the little things that makes this time of year so precious, like cute little mittens, the color red and green and a warm toasty fire while the snow glistens and love ones by your side and friends far and wide to smile across the miles.
    Hugs,

    Red, green, and silver for that precious Max. What an adorable face. Sounds like a perfect day to be inside by the fire. It sounds like we might be experiencing that kind of weather in the next day or so :(

    I loved your wool feather tree so much I ordered a kit. It will be sent out today! I can't wait to try to make one or two for my studio. Thank you for sharing this information.

    Weather here in Delaware was 62 degrees, strange for this time of year but things will change for sure. Love the red and green pictures you shared and the pin cushion certainly caught my attention.
