IT'S FINISHED!!!
Well, last week in between school field trips, David's birthday, house cleaning and creating posie pockets I managed to finish my spring sampler. YAY!!!! Have I told you how much I really REALLY enjoy stitching! It makes me happy! And the ability to just add bits and bobs so freely and randomly is so so gratifying to my soul.
Seeing it, and all it's little imperfections, all my favorite little scraps and buttons, makes me a happy girl.
We have many blue birds come and visit our yard (which I love!) So of course, this little mama bird had to find a home here.
A ribbon flower with a pretty aqua bead
Some of my favorite buttons. lace scraps that were from my Nana's stash.
Gotta love pink pearls, they make great centers for flowers!
I embroidered the word frolic with a lighter pink and it didn't stand out on the fabric very well, so I went back around it with a darker pink to make it pop a little more. Just one of those learning experiences!
I also love how Teresa incorporated a fabric charm in her spring sampler, so I thought I would have a go at my own version of one with my initial.
my sampler would not be complete without a ladybug!
It was great to playing around, stitching flowers with some of my favorite vintage buttons.
I even added a basket of posies!Speaking of posies.........
Here is a sneak peek of new ones arriving in the shop very soon!
Have a beautiful week my friends!
