Such lovely work, as always, Kathleen. I have missed you. I sometimes get very bogged down. Right now of course I am packing like crazy! We never dreamed of moving to Oregon, but that is where Life is taking us! I am so looking forward to it, though. It's going to be a wonderful "golden years" adventure!A Colorful Worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06890388727784255219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-268529800904221520.post-79662223523099329622016-10-15T08:12:43.352-07:002016-10-15T08:12:43.352-07:00That is just so charming, Kathleen!

I have heaps of damaged doilies that I want to do something with, but keep getting sidetracked :-( A friend recently sold me an apron she was given, that she was going to cut up. It was so beautiful I couldn't bear the thought of her doing that, so I bought it from her at a hugely inflated price - she told me she paid $5, and said I could have it for $40! Fool that I am, but how could I refuse an exquisitely stitched crinoline lady....Gina E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07532527261977368083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-268529800904221520.post-15641321557793751302016-09-18T06:02:44.822-07:002016-09-18T06:02:44.822-07:00Neat ideas!I envy your embroidery projects.Neat ideas!I envy your embroidery projects.letslearnembroideryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15659079700377261527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-268529800904221520.post-41985620103416194012016-09-05T09:24:15.884-07:002016-09-05T09:24:15.884-07:00Ingenious and charming - well done!Ingenious and charming - well done!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15322676800314521539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-268529800904221520.post-7911879939481647322016-08-28T16:39:05.362-07:002016-08-28T16:39:05.362-07:00I have many dresser scarves that are beautifully e...I have many dresser scarves that are beautifully embroidered but I am afraid of ruining them if I try to convert them into something else. I wish I had your creative talent. You have turned your scarves into truly useful and beautiful items. Maybe I will take a little courage from you and try to do something with one of my scarves. Thank you for always being so positive.<br />I am glad you are feeling better after the spider bite and I am happy your land is beginning to heal.Cgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05156545160465564845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-268529800904221520.post-2004386034959084972016-08-27T23:22:28.024-07:002016-08-27T23:22:28.024-07:00That has to be one of the neatest things I've ...That has to be one of the neatest things I've seen in a while.

This is a beautiful way to use damaged linens.<br />You asked me what I'm working on this summer ~ I've done a lot of paper piecing quilt blocks and currently I'm embroidering the center piece of crazy quilt blocks. We're on a break from chickens presently so I have a chance to do "fun" work.<br />I'm always thrilled to see a post from you, showing your wonderful work.lil red henhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15494641068959278096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-268529800904221520.post-25298519593076501872016-08-24T06:26:07.496-07:002016-08-24T06:26:07.496-07:00Now that really was an impressive make, it is beau...Now that really was an impressive make, it is beautiful.

Did you have any of those "dime" stores near you? I miss them. Today's dollar stores just do not compare.<br />xx, CarolCarol- Beads and Birdshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11062821517519300477noreply@blogger.com
