A few pictures to share


I went to Yankee Cross Stitch the other day and changed my display table from Christmas to flowers.
I have on display the Funky Flowers and a huge wool flower pin cushion that I made.

I also finished designing Stitch An Inch Spring and almost finished with Blueberry Hill. They should be available by the end of next week.
I will post peeks soon but for today I am sharing the photos from Yankee of the new display and the huge wool pin cushion.

Oh and yes my  Christmas Cactus is in bloom and Tobey posed for me so I could show how big he has gotten since Christmas :)



Have a wonderful day

New Home For Funky Flowers over (1)


I finished the framing for the 5 Funky Flowers that were stitched over (1) with the frames from Old Colonial. I needed them to be all together so that I could send them on trunk shows and not get lost. I hope you like it.

My mother just happened to find this frame for me which had a small inspirational poster in it. I took the poster out and went to the paper store to find something special  that would go with the colors. I needed it plain so it would not take away from the stitched flowers. I found a green(Just the right shade) and a brown corrugated cardboard that matched the brown in the frames from Olde Colonial. I glued the framed pieces down and thought that the in between spaces were to plain. So I got out my handy friend "the Wool" and I cut some circles, gathered them, stuffed and added lines around them. I also cut out leaves and stitched lines for the veins and of course dots for the theme of all the Funky Flowers. Then I glued them down and I am happy with it.
So just an idea to spice up some framing.
