~I NEED HELP~

~CAN YOU NAME THIS PRINT?~

Well...this beautiful Monday morning finds me a bit out of sorts and I'm hoping one of you peeps can help me!

(SOMEBODY DID! SOMEBODY DID!)

See the gorgeous cottage rose fabric above?  Well...I've looked in vain for a solid week trying to find the name of the fabric and I have absolutely STRUCK OUT!

(IT'S WRIGHTSFORD)

The fabric is a JAY YANG DESIGN but I don't have any other information on it!  The ground color is cottage white and the flowers and roses are a combination of pinks (not orangey like they are coming up!) and very, very pale creams.  The leaves a muted...sort of a soft sage color.

***UPDATE***

Well now...wouldn't you know that Miss Julie Marie from Idyllhours came up with the name of the fabric and where I could buy some of it!  Julie found it at Fabricguru.com!  I actually looked at that very website yesterday so I either missed it OR it was just recently listed!  Anyway...THANK YOU, Julie Marie!  I'm jumping up and down doing the happy dance!  Because of you I just snagged 3.5 more yards and then another 7.5!!!  I now have MORE than enough fabric for my project!!!

Thanks to all of you who commented and were willing to LOOK for me!  You are wonderful! xoxoRebecca

(Original Post Below)

I found the fabric at our local Hancock's in the Flat-Fold section and I'm needing a bit more of it!  I would be over-the-moon HAPPY if one of you can possibly tell me the name of it

OR

If you just HAPPEN to be at your local Hancock's Fabric Store and find any of it I would soooo pay you for your time, shipping, costs, etc.  I'm hoping to land 10-12 yards of it but I'll take anything you can find!

OK Girlies (and my handful of guy followers)...can you help me out???  SOMEBODY OUT THERE has got to know the name of the print and maybe even where I can find more of it! 

I'll take pieces, remnants, etc.!

I've looked for hours on-line via Google searches using tons of keyword combinations and came up empty!

Thank you sooo much! 

You Rock!

Love to you...

~SUNDAY MORNING COMING DOWN and He's Faithful Again~

 ~A Gathering of Sunday Thoughts~

I've always loved Sunday Mornings.  They represent not only a day of gathered worship for me but also bring back to my mind the best (and the worst) of my childhood memories.  Whether I was watching my beloved Father buff his well-worn shoes to a brilliant shine or indulging in a single frosted coconut donut (a real treat on a preacher-man's salary), you could count on the day ushering in more than it's fair share of love, drama and sometimes even things that tested our faith.

Additionally...

Someone in my family was always fighting to get into our home's one tiny bathroom...

Someone(usually ME!)was continually (and frantically)looking for a lost shoe or a missing white sock (gee...some things never change!).

My brother and I were constantly arguing over just WHERE we would sit on the drive to church (neither of us wanted to sit in the back seat on the middle 'hump').

And then there were days...

When we found ourselves thankful for the found pennies to purchase gasoline for our broken down, barely running car and for the food-pounding from our local church...

(I will always be grateful for those who generously gave the 'good stuff' from their pantry and chose to gift us with something OTHER than canned Okra or Spinach.)

  When times got really tough (and they always did), when the cake donuts were gone, spare pennies couldn't be found, the cupboards were empty and when only outgrown shoes and clothing filled our closets...

Our faith stood strong.  For this I owe my parents a wealth of gratitude.  My father's faith was unshakable and he believed God would keep His promise and supply all our needs.  And He did.

Today I'd like to remind those of you who might be facing days of loss, discouragement and life altering experiences that God never changes.  He loves you and wants to bless you.  He's the same yesterday, today and forever. 

Below are the lyrics to one of my favorite newer inspirational songs.  I've had it on my eBay About Me Page for several years and I hope it will be a blessing and encourage you this very day.

Note to my sweet sister:

No one sings this song more beautifully than you!  Remember what you told me in 2003 when I was in my darkest hour..."What may seem really big for you isn't for God" ~I love you most~Beck

"He's Been Faithful"

by Cathy Goddard

In my moments of fear,

Through every pain every tear

There's a God who's been faithful to me

When my strength was all gone,

When my heart had no song

Still my God has been faithful to me

Every word He promised is true

What I thought was impossible

I've seen my God do

He's been faithful, faithful to me

Just looking back His love and mercy I see

When in my heart I have questioned

And failed to believe

He's been faithful, faithful to me

When my heart looked away,

The many times I could not pray

Even then He's been faithful to me

The days I've spent so selfishly,

Reaching out for what pleased me

Still in love He's been faithful to me

And every time I come back to Him

I see Him waiting

With His open arms 

And I know once again

He's been faithful, faithful to me

Just looking back His love and mercy I see

When in my heart I have questioned

And failed to believe

He's been faithful, faithful to me

Love to all my visitors this beautiful Sunday~

~PINK SATURDAY...A Fun Pink Me Up~

~OLD SHELF FULL OF PRETTIES~

Hello my sweet pink lovin' peeps!  I hope this lovely ***PINK SATURDAY*** finds you happy and well!  I've been layin' low for the past couple of days trying to make myself feel good about a REALLY TOUGH decision I had to make earlier in the month!  It's good to get back to thinking clearly again!  Thank you Miss Beverly of HOW SWEET THE SOUND for hosting our weekly party!  I hope each of you visiting with me today will mosey on over and check out some of the other parteeee goers!  It's always fun and more pink than you can imagine!
(I hope you'll go visit Miss Wanda at Victorian Home 1885 to see her pink pretties!)

My first offering at the top is of a sweet vintage shelf I purchased earlier in the week at one of my favorite antique shops in OKCity!  I filled her up with some of my past PINK OFFERINGS!

~SWEET PINK PAPER ROSES~

Aren't these roses wonderful?  A little Tussy Mussy was fashioned out of three of them!  Sweet!

~VINTAGE PINK COIN BANK~

Isn't this the neatest thing?  It's an old coin saver!  Not sure how old it is but my guess would be that it hails from the 1950's!

~OLD INSPIRATION PRINT~

I love this old print.  It hangs in my studio!

~Vintage Pink Candlesticks~

I found these darling old candles, brand new-old stock, at a local estate sale about a year ago.  I burned them once (I hate unburned candles) and now I just look at them!  New tapers can't compare.  Yummo!

~PINK TREASURE CURIO~

I showed this charming pink Curio Cabinet sometime last year.  It is filled up with some of my most favorite pink finds!  

~Vintage Pink Rose Hat~

I bought this darling old hat at a Flea Market two Saturdays ago.  It's petite and a little funky and sweet~  But...

~Vintage Pink Rose Hat~

This one steals my breath away!  I purchased this one at an estate sale in June for $15.  EEK!  SCORE!

~Vintage Pink Rose Ensemble~

I have a real weakness for vintage rose dishes.  This little trio is a real keeper!

~Vintage Sewing Machine Cover~

Sometime last year I purchased this old sewing machine case/cover in Guthrie, OK.  It was a grayish black and was filthy dirty.  I brought her home and repainted her with several coats of cottage white paint!  Of all the things I've ever painted pink roses on this one little beauty remains my favorite.  I kept her, too!

~PINK ROSE MANNEQUIN PILLOW~

Last week the little cottage pillow above sold on my A Gathering Place Website.  One of my longtime buyers bought it and then sent me the picture below to show me how it was displayed.

~PINK MANNEQUIN GIRL~

I've never seen a Mannequin and/or Dress Form made with a little Shelf and thought it was the coolest thing!  My friend bought the pillow especially to display inside it!  Haven't found such a thing in Oklahoma! (Thanks Miss M for allowing me to use the photo!).

And...that wraps up my PINK PRETTIES for this week friends!  Hope you enjoyed the tour!

Blessings for an awesome weekend!

Love to you~
