Then I finished this punchneedle design that will hang on a closet door. The backing is a green wool and the buttons are from my Mom's collection.
Next up these two scissor fobs from Shepherd's Bush.
There was no machine sewing on this box but I was on a roll! I finished this necessity box from Blackbird Designs called Secret Garden. I lined the box with fabric. I think it turned out pretty good!
And my progress on June Morning. Do you not love, love, love the colors on this piece? I'm telling you...if you love stitching with Belle Soie..this pattern conversion from Attic Needlework is over the top gorgeous and a 'must have'.
My darling granddaughter Corinne and her boyfriend, Austin, will be in Florida tomorrow for two weeks! We are so excited. I've planned a 4th of July celebration at my house for family and friends!
GOD BLESSED AMERICA
Have a simply fabulous week!!
