Sew Fantastic


Sewing is not as commonplace in my corner of the world as it once was.  I was delighted to see this display of vintage sewing machines in a trendy upscale clothing store on Newbury Street in Boston.  It reminded me of my mother and her skill and talent as a seamstress.  She took pride in her appearance and was a fashionista of sorts; I never saw her in sloppy sweats, jeans or house dresses.  I don't think she would approve of the "throw-away" fashions of today.   Happy Mothers's Day to all!

Summer Attraction

This tiger swallowtail butterfly was a delight to see pollinating the phlox bed along my driveway.
