Finished!

Hello friends!  I put the finishing touches on Days of Liberty last night.
"Days of Liberty"
Chessie & Me
Fabric and floss as kitted
 I just love everything about this piece.  The hornbook supplied in the kit just made for the perfect finish.  You know I had to take some liberty :o) with the personalization.  Can you spot my little addition?

My friend Norma celebrated a birthday this week.  I remembered she likes the color orange so I made her this little change purse.  Wishing you many more years of health and happiness Norma!

Thank you for visiting my little neck of the web.  I hope you all have a fabulous weekend.  I will leave you with these flowers I "pic'd" especially for you!

Cold and Icy

Hello friends!  It has been cold and icy here this weekend.  Work closed early Friday and the ice was so bad yesterday we didn't even open.  I took advantage of the extra time and did the finishing on my With Thy Needle Friendship samplers. Victorian Motto cluny lace trim for this one. Chenille - again from Victorian Motto. I completed the stitching on this "Bluebird Serenade" and finished it up too.  I tried a new technique for me with the ric rac - I wove two different shades of pink together. See how different it looks?  Love it! And here they are, so happy together! I also spent some time with my sewing machine and made up these mug mats for Valentine's Day.  This is the January Label Crew project by Sweetwater. I had several scraps left over and since I am not one to waste such pretty bits... I used them to make these sweet fabric valentines.  :o)   A winner has been selected....

I Stitched!

Something about this series really appeals to me. I just love the look of chalkboards but they are so messy. This way I get the chalkboard but not the mess! I have an idea for my finish using this little chalkboard I found at Wal-Mart. I think with a bit of Briwax and some ribbon it will be cute. I just hope it turns out like the picture in my head. Stay tuned!
