Green is a favorite color in the Lucky Penny household. Pictured is part of my Roseville pottery collection. The Freesia pattern is from 1941, came in three colors: green, a persimmon color, which I have some of, and blue. The green is my favorite. I love the subtle shading in the glaze. I would buy pieces on the cheap at flea markets and shows, but haven't really acquired anything in a number of years. I would love to have a cookie jar in this pattern, but that would be a real extravagance. One of the pieces of pottery is serving as an urn, holding the tin that has the ashes of my first dog, Yoda, whose picture is in the photograph. This is part of a series that David shot in his apartment in San Francisco in 1995. These pictures are why I wanted David to work on my book. I'm not sure if I will finish a green project this month, I have so many projects and work is really kicking my behind, but I'm contemplating a few things. The Jo Sharp Silk Road Aran is for a sweater, pattern not confirmed, and there's some sock yarn. I really do love that Cherry Tree Hill Life's a Beach. The other is a San Francisco purchase from Imaginknit, and there's Noro because, there just has to be. The green rabbit is a piece of Viking glass from the 1960's. More green. If you're visiting because I'm now linked from Delightful Blogs, howdy there! I hope I can live up to the delightful thing.
