Glad to know I'm not alone... projects in my head... projects in my bed... if I don't have one in process, I feel incomplete! When it is finished... Each project is much more than just yarn and hook...<br /><br />The favorite pieces in my hope chest were of my grandmother's embroidery... tablecloths... pillowcases... hankerchiefs... The ones I thought were "too old fashioned" are now treasures that my daughters fight over!<br /><br />Love what you are doing Kathleen... just love it!Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10955387678694179986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6936759563200947460.post-38855243528461908362012-03-11T23:52:39.324-06:002012-03-11T23:52:39.324-06:00How beautiful!

I need to pick up my embroidery again--after the cloth napkins, knitted placemats, decoupaged coasters, skirt alterations, and the knit baby blankets for my etsy shop. I am in the same boat at all of you -- bad habits start young, I suppose. <br /><br />Kathleen, I tagged you and miss Abigail on my blog :)Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11546749606443680696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6936759563200947460.post-45058693300557219212012-03-10T15:05:57.544-07:002012-03-10T15:05:57.544-07:00Thank you ladies!

That's a big load off, then I replaced a zipper on my daughter's winter jacket (been avoiding that one since November or so- thankfully, she hasn't needed a heavy coat- just layers!)and several other larger mending projects. So now I can finish some spring sewing for her! I made myself do the icky stuff first. Cutesy spring sewing here I come! Keep inspiring us with your creativity. Brenda B.

I'm really quite undisciplined...doing the blog helps with that a little. ;o)<br /><br />Angela, I didn't have to transfer the design. These are prestamped. I always wonder if I am being smart about using these prestamped pillowcases. The fabric isn't always the best and I wonder if they will hold up to the kind of use a family will give them, (if my family is anything to judge by...) but sometimes the designs are just so pretty that I work them anyway. Abigail may find they don't wear as well.Kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00670017068516575306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6936759563200947460.post-43088051005847045752012-03-06T16:14:00.566-07:002012-03-06T16:14:00.566-07:00It is beautiful already!
