Something In Common's premier pattern entitled, "Count Your Blessings," has been one of my favorites from the start.  I decided to show some of the things I collect...lanterns, pie birds, wash boards and other antiques. All are reminiscent of a time long ago.

Young Eliza Thomas of Media, Pennsylvania used the touching verse in this pattern in her 1804 sampler.  I think you'll agree that the sentiment is as true today as it was back then. 

"How Great The Blessing, And How Vast The Art, To Live On Little, With A Thankful Heart."
