ABC's Stitcheries!

I decided to carry the ABC theme in a few pieces to group together.
My bad angles make things look more warped than they really are, lol.
This wall needs to be painted, so I just stuck them up there for now, but everything needs to come down soon, so will redo the decorations on that wall again.



Here is a closer look at the K is for Kitty.
The stitcheries are done from old illustrations.



Here is the pillow I made to go with them. I might do some more, it is fun doing the alphabet. I might try some with color, like an old children's book. I also have been collecting ones I find with animals and kids and some play ones. I would like to do them into a quilt.

Stitchery: My Dolly and Me!

I think I am on a stitchery binge, lol.
I find it relaxing and something that can be made quickly.
I wanted to try some on floral fabric and I like how it gives it an antique look.
I also worked on my dog, which has now become a pillow for casey, since I didn't want to go crazy with it.
I also started a project from the new primitive magazine, so will have those to show you, soon.

Don't forget to enter the Giveaway if you haven't already. It will end on Saturday night at 9 pm and I will be announcing the winner after 10pm.

Apple Basket Girl Mini Quilt!

I know I said I wouldn't start anything new, but was bored and not in the mood to finish anything at the moment and stitching is so fun and relaxing. And, I actually finish the mini pieces. I found this design on the web, not sure were and no copyright. I have been doing searches for illustrations and sometimes I find fun things to do. Most items I find, have a copyright on the page, so I can use that, but some have none, so I need to remember if they don't, save the address so I can share it with all of you.

I used some scrap logs, that my friend Kelley gave me, for the border, then black around that, which i use as a binding.
I did a simple stitch around the borders and antiqued it with walnut ink. I hope you enjoy my new piece.
