I haven't posted in so long that I'm hoping I remember how to do this....I post mostly on Instagram these days and some of you have been following me over there....so thank you. Some of you have wondered why I wasn't posting here anymore and there just isn't enough time to do it all so I hope you'll come on over to
Instagram and follow me over there. You do not need to set up an account to follow me.
Thought I'd just load this post with some of the images that I've posted over there so you can see what I've been up to....click on the images for close up views.
There have been more pouches:
 |
| pouch with hanky and lace |
 |
| embroidery cut up and stitched with fabric into a bucket pouch |
Lots of embroidery:
 |
| monograms on some free motion snippet lace |
 |
| a tree embroidered onto a page in a story book |
 |
| embroidery on cotton. pattern from story book |
 |
| embroidered names of characters in storybook THE BEDSPREAD |
 |
| miniature pajama tops with monograms for the 2 characters in the book |
The storybook is what I'm working on in Karen Ruane's class STITCHING A STORY. It's not too late to sign up....Go

and I've also been working along with Pat Sloan's Splendid Sampler group. Two blocks are posted each week to work up. I'm refreshing my memory on so many techniques I haven't used in years....and it's all FREE....so check it out and see if you'd like to join in. Go
HERE Scroll down at that link and you'll see all the blocks presented so far. There will be 100 total so it's an ongoing project done a little at a time. It's amazing how fast the blocks add up. Here are some of mine. I'm working in two different colorways so I'll have 50 in each when it's complete.
