My Favorite Things About Spring...

Hello Blog Land....I am posting a few of the thing I have been working on for Early Work Mercantile which will be on the site tonight....Spring always makes me think of Strawberries,,,


Robins, Tulips,,,



Rabbits,,,
More rabbits,,,
And even more rabbits...
I have been stitching and sewing like crazy just waiting for it to be nice enough to work in my yard...With spring in the pacific north west we always have our fair share of rain so it is always beautiful and green but sometimes really muddy....I will just have to wait for a dry day, then weeds here I come....But while I am waiting my daffodils are beautiful and my tulips are on their
way up...I'm hoping you have lots and lots of sunshine....Thanks for stopping by and for your kind comments they make my day...
Take care,
Nancy

Is Spring Every Coming ???

Hello Blog land....The sun is shining and my daffodils are blooming....I really wish that was so....But sad to say it isn't....But the good news is I have had time to stay in where it is warm to stitch and sew....So my life doesn't get much better than that....
I have posted a few of the things I have been working on for TDIPT birthday celebration tonight..
My spring sampler I adapted from a BBD design..




My strawberry is also adapted from a BBD design....I just love when they come out with new designs...
In a perfect world I would have the time to stitch every thing they design...



Last is my spring chicken she is adapted from a Ravens Heaven design...
That is about all I have for today.....I am on my way back to my sewing room to work on a chair mat for a great friend I meet out there in blog land....Yahooo for me!!!!
Thanks for stopping by, your kind comments make my day...
Take care, Nancy

Hoping For Spring...

I really hate to start my new post by complaining about the weather......But, here in the pacific northwest it has been SUPER CRUMMY....The good new is it has given me time to sew so I guess it isn't as bad as I think....I would really like to look out my sewing room window and see just a little sunshine...I will keep me fingers crossed maybe we will get a few sun breaks tomorrow...

Here are a few of the spring projects I have been working on for Early Work Mercantile tonight...
I love rabbits, eggs and spring colors they are just about as good as sunshine...





I have a couple more hours that I can sew before my family will want dinner....I'm off to enjoy my sewing room a little longer....
Thanks so much for stopping by your kind comments make my day!!!!
I'm hoping you are enjoying tons of sunshine today...
Take care,

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,

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

Christmas Finishes...

I'm so excited the Christmas season is upon us....I just love this time of year...I'm still decorating, just when I think I'm done I think of something else that might be fun to decorate...I know it is never ending...I love Christmas stitching, I'm sure like many of you I have about a zillion Christmas thing started and it will probably take me about ten years to finish all of them...But my thinking is do I really care how long it take me... It sure doesn't stop me from starting a new project...LOL...

Here are a few of the thing I have been working on for Early Work Mercantile...This time of year I can't seam to get enough wool project done....I just love working with wool....I have piles of wool all over my sewing room, I know it sounds crazy, but I just like look at all the colors and textures....Now you know one more of my crazy obsessions












I hope you enjoy the holiday season and that you finish a few of the Christmas project I now you have started...LOL....
Thanks so much for all the kind comments they make my day...
Take care,
