Hello There

 Hello There,

So nice to have time to mention a few projects I have completed.  

The holidays seem so far away, but I did want to share a a couple of hand embroidered bookmarks I gave as gifts.  Check it out:






The designs came from this sweet little book.  The designs are simple and easy to hand stitch. 




Moving on to the outdoors.  I really wanted to create a seating area outside my studio door.  So, the hubby and I went to Home Depot and lugged a bunch of bricks home.  The size of the area is  about 12' wide by about 4' deep.  It took around 200 bricks to complete the project.  I did throw some thyme seeds in the space between the bricks......I hope I will have a carpet of thyme, but we will have to see.




Inside the studio, I realized the little ones, ( the name I gave to our two new little dogs) needed a dog bed.  They love to hang out in the studio with me when I paint.  So back into the sewing room and I sewed up this cute cotton dog bed.  I have been wanting an excuse to use the giant zigzag tape, so I got my wish.  I used it as trim around the bed.  Nola loves her new bed.  I now need to sew one for Morpheus.  They don't like to share.  Oh well. Check it out: 



OK Nola doesn't like taking photos



Stay safe and keep creating!
