I am working on a new project that I got from a freebie, so nothing to show yet.
I took some photos of a couple of items that I made years ago and hope you enjoy seeing them.
I had to do these without flash to reduce the glare, so they colors are a bit yellowed.
This is a cross stitch that I made about 30 years ago, when I could still see well, lol. I still love this piece as much now, as when I made it and hangs on my bedroom wall.
These are two of the first frakturs, that I ever made. One is for my wedding date and the other is when we bought our home.
And this is an item I bought about 20 years ago. I love to collect unique cat items and couldn't resist this one. I am thinking of using the design as an idea for an art quilt.
I love oldies but goodies. Fun to take a trip down memory lane. :-)
ReplyDeleteCool stuff! I love frakturs :) You've been going through your stuff? I've been doing that.

Hi Ya Deb, Wow the cross stitch is very beautiful and so country too. Would be so perfect in a cottage style come. I have not been up to par of late so didn't much posted the last few week. Just got the blog updated.
