Having fun with fabric painting and Embroidery

 

Yeah!! She is finally finished and she makes me HAPPY!!

Now I need to decide what to do with her, 

should I make her into a counted cross stitch design? 

But I'm not sure.

 I loved painting on the fabric...so maybe a workshop of painting,

 but I did draw her free hand on the cloth 

so I would need to re-draw here onto paper, 

Ugh....just thinking here!!

 Well I am planning on something for the late summer 

early fall so maybe she will be one of the options.

 And then of course a Fall design too.....

Oh my, well I'm off to think by myself HAHA

Have a good day

Colonial Home and Centerpiece Coming soon!!

 

I made a couple of 3D flower vases with fabric about a month or two ago and I loved them.

So I decided to turn one of them into a counted cross stitch design.

And then I thought oh!!! how about taking those same flowers

and adding them to a Colonial looking home.

I then took the same flowers from the vase

and put them around a little Colonial home,

and I came up with a place in my imagination to sit,

look out a little window and gaze upoon the basket of flowers in my front lawn

beyond my little white picket fence. I can see my big beautiful tree

with extra large blooms and vines all around.

So I enjoyed using my imagination to be in my fantasy home.

I hope you use your imagination with your stitched pieces

and imagine being in the middle of them

or if its a sampler how about living as the girl that stitched it in her Time.

Enjoy your day and keep dreaming!

:)

Design coming soon!!
