The End Of The Month.
Posted on | January 31, 2015 | 11 Comments
If it’s White Rabbit for the start of a month, what is it for the last day? I have no idea!
This has to have been one of the mildest Januarys in this area for a long time. It has certainly made daily living in the middle of Summer very easy.
On the sewing front I was recently the lucky recipient of a pattern from Elizabeth at Sunflower Fields Pattern Company.
Thank you, Elizabeth. I couldn’t resist it for long and ended up making both little pillow ornaments.
They are made with wool and have lovely embroidery embellishments on them.
I have been wanting to work with wool for a long time and have slowly been collecting little pieces. This is my first play with it and I must admit it was lovely to work with.
I will have to keep my eyes open and collect more as I can see more of this in my future!
I have also noticed the FHFS group has a wool challenge so I will watch for that one with interest, too!
Earlier this week a group of friends came over for a card workshop. With the careful guidance of Christine we all made these cards.
Lots of fun was had and of course more talking was done than work.
There is a lovely weekend waiting for all of us.
Have a good one.
Cheers, Karen
Everything is just so adorable!!!
Those snowmen are too cute! Beautiful cards too.
I like your cards and those ornaments are just as cute as they can be! Glad you’re having mild weather. We’ve had a turn toward cold here, but nothing like up North, thank God!
The wool snowmen are so cute, I love your embroidered snowflakes on them!
The cards look like a lot of fun, silk screened?
Your little cushion ornaments are gorgeous, Karen. The cards are lovely too.
Those little snowman ornaments are so cute!! I love the white snowflakes embroidered on the snowmen and the way one of them has a hat over the edge. Your cards are always beautiful, the imprint of the fern fronds are such a lovely touch.
I love your little “woolies” that pattern is just too cute. Great cards! You girls must have a fabulous time playing!
Gorgeous cards and wool cushions. You’ve had fun! Xox
Those Frosties are adorable… no wonder resistance was useless! Your cards are so beautiful. I do wish it would get a little milder up here…phew!
