My husband said “why would you watch someone clean? What? A treehouse?” I said “this fabulous woman is comfort watching.” He looked at me like I was insane.

You see thats the difference between men & women...we just know quality when we see it...men on the other hand have just no clue 😊

She sure is!

She's like the new Mr. Rogers. Calm and soothing. No hurries, no worries, just do your best and be happy with it. And spread love and kindness and acceptance wherever she goes.

[@eastcoaststitcher8203]

What fabulous comments. Couldn’t have said it better!

[@loriar1027]

I'll never forget what a comfort her videos were during those early days of the pandemic. I was in such a state of anxiety I could hardly function.

[@083purplecola]

I had this video playing and paused when our grandson came to visit today. He is just over 2 years old, and asked, "Who's that Grandma?" I said, "That's Kate!" He picked up my tablet, hugged it with a contented sigh, and said, "My Grandma, Kate". And kissed the screen. So, Our Dear Kate, you are now an honorary Grandma as well as an official one. Happy Mother's Day to all US members of the LHH community!

[@joanneabernathy3566]

I think your tree house is extra special. My grandfather darned his socks and actually he knit his own socks. He was a farmer with a horse and plow and 50 milking holstein cows. As children we would ride one of his old friendly cows. Your life is so endearing. Thank you. I look forward to your videos.. ps I live in Wisconsin, USA....

Yesterday my cat Purl caught a squirrel 🐿 and brought it into my open door to my house. I tried to get them both outside, but instead the squirrel got loose in my house. Thankfully my son and his girlfriend caught the squirrel and relocated it to a nice tree outside. Cats 🐈 we do love them.

[@bluegrassdreams2seams510]

I had a cat catch a baby squirrel once! It took a bit for Thomas’s jaws to be dislodged from that poor squirrel. The squirrel escaped into a birdhouse, panic stricken! Thomas was taken inside! After a few hours, checking on baby squirrel every half hour, we discovered he’d left the bird house. So, Thomas was free to roam outside again. I’ve always had cats.

[@judithburke1539]

It's too bad you weren't able to video that mayhem! I'm sure that it would have been very funny to watch later. One of those " Do you remember?" Moments. Take care and I'm happy that the squirrel survived. Take care!

[@helenyoung8012]

My mother was a great darner. I remember as a teenager in the early seventies when tights were expensive she darned a run that must have been a foot long!! Somebody remarked and wondered what the scar was on my leg,😂. I had to darn for my family to keep clothes going and pass them from child to child as well for my husband with his service uniform. It is like patchwork, very satisfying. Love the curtains.

I’m with you about hair flopping around! I either whine at my niece (who used to be a hairdresser) and ask her for a cut, or I haul out my scissors and my old dog clippers and have a go myself...after all, it’s only hair! (I had chemo years ago and was bald for a while, so now I don’t really care - I don’t see it, so how I look is not really my problem!)

[@donna9373]

Yes Exactly, its only hair, years ago when my mum had her hair shaved off for chemo, rather then waiting for it to fall out, I did the same to mine, it made mum cry but it made her understand its only hair.

[@083purplecola]

I have long hair - to the small of my back if I straighten the waves and curls (I don't use a straightener, just a brush) and am soooo ready to get it cut! When I was a child my mom got tired of trying to take my thick wavy/curly hair (I mean, I'm the youngest of 8 so I don't blame her) and she kept it cut short. Being a bit of a tomboy, I was asked more than once if I was "a boy or a girl" and got bullied a lot. I swore that as an adult I'd never have short hair... but I'm 51 now, I'm tired of all this hair and the literal headache of keeping it pulled back... I know it's only hair, but while I want it gone I'm also nervous about getting it cut. Perhaps I should go in stages - start at shoulder length and go shorter in bits? I admire the courage and strength of you ladies. Thank you for sharing your words. Be well. 💚

[@suebarner8364]

@@083purplecola When I was much younger my hair was very long and it although it was fairly fine, it was really thick, so I totally know about hair-induced headaches. As soon as I could, I got it cut off and kept it relatively short through high school. After that it was as short as I could get it apart from shaving my head.

I'm not surprised you like tootling off for a nap up there...fabulous having the sun shine in and just laying down getting comfortable...priceless! I have a potting shed i made in to my little sanctuary 😊..its a very strong structure so I have hanging hammock seats from the roof & a big cable reel as a table, lots of fairy lights,a little heater,sewing & knitting projects..its just fabulous, I felt your urghhh what have I started when you were getting out the rugs from under the futon 😆..have you got electricity in the tree house? Just thinking how beautiful a little teapot & cup& saucer set would look wonderful if you could pop on a cuppa,😊 but saying that I don't have electricity in my shed but I have beverage facilities haha, I transformed a old camp stove & made a shelf to pop them on. Although the house is only 20ft away mind 😁 its lovely to sit in when its raining aswell as it has so many windows it resembles being in a car wash lol...great vlog and looking forward to the spinning wheel 😀 have a great week & invites being passed along the lgs for my puppas birthday party sat folks 🙂...cake & lemonade a plenty 🐾🍋🎂🍰🧋x

Your wonderful smiling face popped up and the name The Last Homely House was intriguing so l went exploring with you. Since then I watch you every day. I too have a lovely big garden, chickens and thanks to Eileen I’m also getting a goose. You inspired me to clean out and sort my fabric and gussy up my sewing loft.

[@ginayoung1983]

I remember my mum turning dad's shirt collars and darning the family socks in front of the fire. She got so lost in it she'd not realise her legs were near to roasting! Never thought mending would be something I enjoy .I do, very much but couldn't darn without my darning mushroom. I also mend my jumper cuffs with fabric. So I'll join you on the lgs, not so far away over the border in Dumfries & Galloway, and perhaps swap stitchy stories:) Thanks again for a relaxing Sunday evening Kate xg

[@annm8680]

I forgot to add that I am in Georgia, USA. Been watching three years. My grandmother taught me to darn socks in the 60s. It was a sin to throw away something just because it had a hole.

If and when you ever get to me : Loves Park, Illinois......It will not be on the map, just go to Chicago and go west a little and north a little to Rockford and Loves Park sits on top of Rockford. Now I'm hoping this works....and I will remind you to plant your blubs in October. lol

Hello Kate 🤚🏻 I don’t think I’ve ever seen your super quaint treehouse; love it! I can only imagine how magical the treehouse and grandma together is for little Agnus must be, how special! My mom was a costumer and she taught me how to hand stitch and it does take concentration so, I understand that talking and darning don’t blend well for me, either. Passing some pretzels down the LGS as others watch and enjoy your videos. Be well.🥰

[@margm4]

That was wonderful Kate. I hate darning...had to do it to get a darning badge when I was in the Brownies, eons ago. My sister, who doesn’t enjoy any craft apart from knitting, loves doing mending! Takes all kinds, as they say. I was wondering where your furry felines were, but then Sadie turned up. She has quite vicious claws😩 Love your treehouse. Reminds me of the little hut on a farm, where I went to Girl Guides. My group decorated the room with all little bits and pieces. We only went to Guides once a month, going to the leader’s farm on an old rail motor. We’d spend the whole day, doing all kinds of “Guide” things. Even digging our own latrine! You’ve rekindled so many memories, of when I was young and nimble and full of hope for the future. Thanks for your lovely chat today. ❤️🇦🇺

[@Ladythyme]

Looks like you had a beautiful Spring Day to do it! Uuuuuuhhhhh... you sound like me trying to move stuff nowadays ...moving those futon mattresses is no joke! 😜😂🤣... love that Tree House!.... I have a closed off / finished off loft room with an a-frame, wooden beamed ceiling that Ive always called my Tree House room... I use it as my craft room and play room for my granddaughter. I’ve been meaning to sort thru it and rearrange it for a while now...we don’t get up there much in the winter months as it gets quite warm up there from our wood stove’s heat ...you’ve inspired me now to get my butt up and do it! Great idea about putting the spinning wheel up there... that is kind of how my craft room started up in my Tree House room. I can leave everything out and not have to worry about it being in the way. Have a great week! Happy Mother’s Day to all those mothers on the Lime Green Sofa! Passing around some blueberry sage scones ...Enjoy!

[@user-zm4jd9hl5m]

Hi Kate, I’m watching this 2yrs too late. You just mentioned the folks in New Zealand are getting ready for autumn and that they will have snow in July. It reminded me of a saying in my husband’s family: “it snows but never in July.” It is a reference to when Krakatoa blew its stack back in the 18 hundreds and afterward it snowed in every month but July. Must have been awful - not much garden that year.

I’m new here, and I love watching you share so many things. Thank you so much for explaining the LGS. I would love to live near you. I am in Ct. in the United States. I am so happy I found you. I have a dear friend that has introduced me to quilting, I feel like I can’t get enough new ideas, and techniques.

Kate: remember when you sent me the Susan Branch mug, to the states? I still thank you 🙏 I love your magic tree house 🏡 with the bright green walls. 🎨💕 I bet your Agnes loves it up there with Grandma. P.S. I love the beautiful Pin Wheel Quilt your Mum made. 💚 One more for the lime green sofa, please. 🌿🌱🍃💕

Thank you for all your wonderful videos. I have enjoyed them so much I am going back and watching them from the beginning. I told a friend today that you are living my dream. So maybe when I grow up "retire" I can be like you!!!

I do hope you have had a nice cosy nap in the tree house since cleaning it and washing the bed sheets etc you certainly deserve to after all that work . At age 61 I know I would love having some Nanny naps in there ... I have six grandchildren now so sometimes a nice nap is needed 😊 Thankyou for this lovely vlog Kate x
