Waiting For Spring....


I'm just making it through the winter.....I love snowmen....But I have to say that I'm look forward to flowers and rabbits....With that said I have been stitching thing that remind me of spring...First off I found these great vintage pastry cups so I decided to put pin-keeps in them...
I stitched them on 30 count linen over one thread so my eyes are a little foggy...LOL







Here she is my first rabbit of the season...I would like you to meet Gladys Palmer is a design from Ravens Haven and I just love her....She has been doing what I wish I could do this time of year... She had been working in her garden all day...



Last are a couple of Pin-keep I used some great vintage lace I found and stitched some of the things that remind me of spring....
These are the items I am offering on Early Work Mercantile tonight...Hopefully they remind you of spring also.....I guess I will just have to be patient I know spring will be here sooner or later....If you have the time I would love it if you could stop by to take a look at all the offering at Early Work Mercantile...
Thanks so much for all the kind comments they make my day.....
Take care,
Nancy

Yahoooooo It Is Time For Hearts......


Wow....It seams like it has been forever since I last posted.... like all of you out there in blog land
the holidays were crazy around here...My daughter Mary had been in Alaska for 18 months she arrived home on the 16 Th of December....Katie arrived home on the 23 of December and they both had friends that came to visit for the holidays....So with the other kids and the grand kids we had the best time...Probable more fun than we were entitled too...Then after all the fun I got to spend time in my sewing room....It doesn't get much better than that.....I'm posting a few of the thing I have been working on...This time year I can't get enough red hearts








There it is my latest guilty pleasure...I thought with the new year I might talk my family into not eating and making a mess of the house, then that would give me more time to sew...But they didn't go for the idea...So I'm off to do the laundry.....
I'm listing my new items on TDIPT tonight...If you have a chance I would love it of you stopped by...
Take care and stay warm,
Nancy
