News & Views

I deleted my last post...enough lolly gagging about...back to work...thought I would show you what I have been up to besides hiding under my blanky...afraid to look out...& still see snow on the ground...
 I have been creating all sorts of pincushions...the graphics I have been using were gleaned from free clip art sites such as the "Graphics Fairy" & the "Vintage Moth" as well as my collection of antique books. 
 The wire wrapped heart cushions can be hung on your wall...each one has cross stitched details & a fabric bird scene sewn onto the front...there is also a plain fabric patch where you can keep a few needles & pins...twisted wire hangers were made for each one...
These ones are also made for hanging & look great as a group of three...I have them displayed on the side of my old jelly cupboard...
 
 & last but not least...this little guy keeps me company while I type away on my computer...he has made himself at home in one of my vintage Fenton glass bowls...
Have a mouse day!
Susan
