Having a Giveaway

A few days ago when we were having our snow storm, 
 good time for stitching...
I had cross stitched one of the Stitch An Inch Flower Garden flowers...
and since I love dimension,, what could be done for this flower?


And so I added some needle lace, padded satin stitches and french knots


and now to finish it .....


I finished with a wool circle and stuffed it to be a pincushion...My stitching was not the best on the corners...and I wasn't going to give up, so I decided to add some wool leaves to those corners along with some beads and more french knots.


And then the giveaway...
Please leave me a message (Comment) on this post 
and I will add your name to the hat...the drawing will be this
 Sunday the 27th...
good luck
:)
hugs
donna

  5. Hi Donna! The pin cushion is so cute. I love how you use mixed media to make such lovely things. I'm almost done Harbor Haven. I am 1/2 way done part 12... I always slow down when I get to the end of projects. Breaking up is hard to do ...?? I can't wait to get it framed. Such a unique piece. xo
