One of my favorite things is my quilt collection – especially this time of the year!
Another favorite is my chair I got for $7.50 at an auction this past weekend.
As always, my “mostess” favorite thing is God’s creation.
I am linking to Friday Favorites at Whistlestop Cafe Cooking, and
Junkin Finds at A La Carte, and
Seasonal Sundays at The Tablescaper.
Thank you to all of these hostesses, and a big thank you to each of you who visit my blog. Please go visit other Favorite Things at the links shown below. laurie

Laurie,
Your quilt collection is amazing! As the weather cools down, they will be much appreciated. Beautiful shot too of God's creation. I never tire of trying to capture the sunsets and sunrises with my camera. Truly magnificent. Hope your weekend is a good one.

PS: Thanks for hosting Favorite Things.
Beautiful sky photo!
What a great collection of quilts. Did you make any of them? You really got a great deal on the chair.
Thanks for hosting again this week.
Enjoy your weekend.
The montage of your quilts absolutely took my breath away for a moment. You are so blessed to have them. And I love the wood grain in that chair. Thanks for hosting the party.
Wow, $7.50? That is amazing, love the chair!
Hi Laurie!
Oh quilts are one of my favs too. I used to quilt a lot but, now I just quite from time to time. But, i love them. Each are precious to me. Love that new chair find and what a great price!!
Have a wonderful weekend!
I love your favorites, Laurie!
My post has to do with the ride we took in the country yesterday. J found the owner of the property, where we found the pear tree, and we went back today, for the pears. The plan is to make pear honey, just like his grandmother made, when he was a child. More about that in an upcoming post.
For our anniversary, which is today, I made a lunch of penne pasta with saffron, Italian sausage, onion, heavy cream and fresh Thyme. Oh my! We had a whole bottle of white wine with the meal and polished off the entire pot of pasta!! It's a wonder I can even write a comment! Needless to say...homemade Pear Honey will wait for another day.
Happy Weekend!
Laurie, your quilts are just stunning. Love them. What fabulous colors and patterns. I have a couple from my mom, and they are so precious. I also really LOVE your cowboy tablescape. That is just way too creative. Hope you have a super weekend. Hugs, Marty
Beautiful! I lov quilts and treasure the few that I have. Yours are amazing. Love that chair also. Thanks for linking up to Junkin Finds and I will be back to join in your party later!
Laurie, you have an amazing quilt collection. I have one just like the upper right, a double wedding ring. It was a gift from a life long friend, her grandmother made it. Pretty precious gift to recieve, I cherish it!! Happy weekend,Kathysue
$7.50? Wow! What a great find, looks like an empire style to me and I love the wood. It's flame mahogany, right? I love your quilt collection and you have so many and they are all beautiful. You do need a store, Laurie, lol...Christine
Your quilts are beautiful, I didn't know you were a quilter!
Nice lines on the chair! God's handiwork, priceless!
Your quilt collection is beautiful, Laurie! I can't believe how many you have...you need a whole closet just for them! I have a few favorites and we get a lot of use out of them in the winter.
Your chair is a real bargain. I would have fallen over had I seen that price!! Love your sunset pictures, too.
Happy Weekend!
XO,

Hi Laurie!
Long time no chat. Why does it not surprise me that you have a gazillion fabulous quilts? *winks* I just love em sooo much! I want to hear the story of each one. And that chair for $7.50? Ooohhhhh me sooo green over that one girlfriend! What a steal!
Your sky looks much better than mine today. God has blessed us in the pacific northwest with rain rain rain! And grey grey grey....Just perfect for hunkering down by the fire and catching up with your blog. Vanna

Hi Laurie! What a lovely collection of quilts! I am from a family of mountian women who quilt...except me. :-( I need to learn! And that chair...gorgeous! And what a bargain! Love it! Happy weekend!...hugs...Debbie
Laurie, I thought I left a comment earlier though I don't see it. Clever way to spotlight the quilts. You have some beauties. Hope you'll showcase the whole quilt on some of these in the future. I've always wanted to make a flower basket quilt, but doubt that it ever happens. I don't think I have another quilt in me. LOL
Happy Weekend! ~ Sarah
Beautiful quilts! I own one tattered quilt that my grandmother made and it is very special to me in spite of its condition. Great buy on that chair!
Laurie, WOW, what a lovely quilt mosaic you have!! Love those vintage quilts. Love the sky mosaic, too. Come to think of it, that chair is pretty awesome, also!
Thanks for hostessing this fun event!

Your quilts are gorgeous... what treasures and that chair for $7.50 is a steal!
My grandmother made beautiful quilts. Now that I am older I wish I had been still long enough for her to teach me.
Annette
I love quilts, too...you have such a beautiful collection!
Laurie...that chair is great!! I have a *thing* for old chairs and have them scattered thru the house. I would not have been able to resist yours...especially for $7.50.
Your quilt collection is fabulous!! I have my stack of quilt out now too...it's getting cold :)
Blessings!

Laurie,
Your quilts are absolutely beautiful!
And God's creation stuns me with its beauty every day.
Love the quilt! Adore your Chair!!! Beautiful Sunset! What great favorites! Thank you so much for the card, it made my day! Still down, keep getting hurt, 4 times in last 3 week, Doc not going to like it. He said when I was there it would take a month or more to heal what damage I had done. Now it keeps on keeping on. lol Trying to be Good! Thank you so much for thinking of me!
What an amazing collection of quilts...gorgeous quilts. There is so much detail in some of these...they are just stunning!
Love that chair too! What a bargain!
Nancy

What a beautiful collection of quilts Laurie-enjoy:@)
Love your quilt collection! God's creation in pretty spectacular too :-)
Fantastic quilts! And, great bargain on the chair. I have an old chair/stool that I am thinking of painting and recovering. You may have just inspired me.
Your quilts are gorgeous, Laurie! Do you make them, or do you bargain hunt for them?
Hugs,Beth
What a wonderful quilt collection. I am relatively new to quilt-making, but absolutely love the art of it.

What an unbelieveable quilt collection, but that chair and for only $7.50 is an amazing find. I love the grain of the wood.
It's wonderful to have you participating in Seasonal Sundays.

Your quilt collection is just lovely. I remember all of the beautiful quilts my mother had. Maybe someday I will begin that craft. I did one with blue jean pockets (the ones we wore in the 70s and 80s) but that is it. I really admire quilters and beautiful quilts.
Love the beautiful sky picture too.
Your quilt collection is gorgeous Laurie. I just love them. I used to drive through Amish country and drool over the craftsmanship of their quilts. Never could afford to buy one though :) Maybe I should have taken you with me - I can't believe what you paid for the chair! And of course your last photo is my favorite, nothing better than the glorious sky to lift your spirits. And it's FREE! Kat
Your quilt collection is just beautiful, and I know you have the perfect spot for that chair. Hope you're having a blessed weekend.
Great quilt collection.. wow. thanks so much for sharing.
Laurie, today I went to the International Quilt Festival in Houston. It is amazing to see the work that is being done....you would have loved it!
dear laurie...all the images are pieces of a puzzle, the puzzle that is you :) they are warm and colorful, cozy and inviting...
