My windows are too high to see out of when I'm sitting down sewing (or crocheting or knitting or any other needlework) so I see, in my minds eye, the person my current project is intended for, and how happy they will be that I was thinking of them & took the time to make something especially for them. When the weather cooperates & I can get outside, I see much the view you have - trees, wildlife, birds, flowers in season - we who live in a rural location truly live in Paradise.
