Wow time is flying by..have not posted in a bit.

That is my true love..and relaxes me so much. It has been so hot here that I have spent more time doing just that...too hot to be outside! I Finished a Prim Stitchery and working on a Witch Hat.Once the hat is complete I will post it here.

I am starting some new things..some Halloween Goodies,and new Patterns I bought recently. I have

a few orders from my Website to finish first. I wish I could spend all my time"stitching",but I am happy I do get so many orders. Gives me my stitching addiction money.

Have a Wonderful Day

New Finish and stuff

Just finished this sweet "vintage" Strawberry piece by Nicoletta Farrauto..love how it came out. Its stitched on 32 count ivory linen,which has been "aged" I will be putting it in my etsy shop later today.

Finally sorted some of my lace and Trims.....and put them on holders. I still have lots more to do

but at least finished these...so much neater than having them in a plastic box..

And some of my Scissors...I can not get enough of these...love them all

I have been slowly healing from eye surgery on both eyes...It is a little hard to stitch because

I can see fine at a distance but close is a problem. Using drug store cheapies for the time being. I get my eyes examined this coming week

to get corrective glasses for close work. Hope you enjoy some of my collections and have a Blessed

Week end..

Aged with Antiquing Mediums..to give it a Vintage Look..it is filled with Walnut shells for a truly Olde Look and Feel...I have it for sale in my Etsy shop  I really wanted to keep it..it looks so vintage...but will have to make another when I can.

And I also added these Decorative Pins and Marking Pins to the shoppe..

Almost Finished and Some Flowers

I just finished stitching this Piece. It will be a pincushion,with a lace border,filled with walnut shells.. Now I need to put it together. Its a BlackBird Design called

Basket Of Memories. Done on 32 ct bone linen using Gentle Arts Aged Pewter threads.
(with some of my Lily of the Valley)

And these are some of my Flowers Blooming right now in my Gardens..

Lavender and White Lilacs

and the last Plant my Dad Gave to me before he passed away. He was a Florist and Grew Beautiful

Plants..this is a Lavender Azalea...with very large blooms...

Hope you enjoyed these. I think this is my favorite time of the year,and its so beautiful

around my neighborhood because the homes are all older and the flowering plants

are mature and so beautiful. So much color..it makes you happy to be alive just looking at them all

Have a Great evening

Marilyn

Happy Easter My Friends!

Wishing you all a wonderful Easter day.

Smiles and Blessings
