I sure didn't mean to neglect my blog, but I have been
so busy stitching up orders and trying to get
done the new offerings I needed to
All got finished and were well received on the merc : )
Here's all the things I've been stitching.
BBD Strawberries with green wool tops and filled with
crushed walnut shells.
Another BBD called Sweet Heart. This pillow is
stitched on36 ct R & R linen. Just lovely
to work on. It's stitched with
overdyed floss and stuffed with sawdust.
I was on a BBD roll :D. This little box was stitched with
willow green linen. I also used overdyed floss and
trimmed it with vintage chenille trim.
The patten originally said Noel, but I changed it to
Be Mine, so it could be for Valentine's Day. I love how this
turned out. I used an old love letter to line the inside of the
box and stitched up a wool acorn as an added surprise.
This hanging pinkeep is my adaptation of an
E&E&F design. I didn't care for the saying so I
changed it to a simple Be Mine with the
date of Fed 14, 1890. It's stitched on a
dark khaki linen and stuffed with
sawdust. It's pretty big too, 10 X 4.
Finally, I just finished this cupboard hanger. It's from a
design by Brenda Keyes. Also done with overdyed
floss on natural linen and has a homespun hanger.
I haven't listed this yet. It looks so cute hanging
on my stepback cupboard, that I'm not sure I
want to give it up.
Well, I hope this makes up for being away from my blog for
so long. Hope you enjoy the photos of my stitchings.
Warm wishes to you all and as always, happy stitching.
