Duke ate my Tiger Tape!!


Look at Duke - looking all innocent cuddled up with one of the kittens.  He is not as sweet as he looks!  He is in big trouble with me for eating my tiger tape this week.  How am I supposed to have even stitches now?  Without my trusty tiger tape all my seams go uphill....

Awe look at those cute puppy eyes begging for forgiveness lol.


My sons cute adorable bunny was chewing on the edge of my sampler the other day. I almost died. We always pic him up and tell him to look as us and say what he has done wrong ( knowing full well he has no idea what this big pink creature is saying to him). Then his cute soft eyes stare at you and say " oh I beg forgiveness cuddle and kiss me now. And off he goes. I found a higher spot to put it.

Sorry about your tiger tape. I am still trying to find it here. I get a lot of blank stares and questions about it.LOL

How can that sweet face be in trouble? What a dear Duke is -- and that kitty is soooooo sweet. No, Dear, no more animals -- until you aren't looking LOL.

Giveaway Day! (CLOSED)

I am very happy to be joining in the Giveaway Day through Sew, Momma, Sew .  I have chosen to share one of my finds from a shopping trip, or treasure hunts as I think of them.  This is an antique sewing box -  I could not resist it when I saw it for sale!  Were you able to guess the item from the sneak peek earlier in the week? The box itself is fairly small, 8 inchs X 6 inchs and 4 inches high (20 cm X 15 cm and 10 cm high).  From my research it is of Asian origin. Inside the sewing box is lined with hand-painted silk.  The inside of the lid features a neat little needlebook. In the bottom of the sewing box there are more beautiful hand-painted blossoms and an attached pincushion.  I hope you are as charmed by this little box as I was when I found it and that you will enter my giveaway.  I will be pleased to mail internationally so everyone is invited to enter. To enter, visit my Etsy shop and then come back and leave me a comment telling me which item you like best.  Feel fr

Save the Stitches Finished!

 I finally finished my "Covid Project"!  I worked on Elizabeth Almond's beautiful blackwork sampler design, "Save the Stitches" for much longer than I would like to admit...  I have to say though that it was very satisfying every step of the way.  I have not been able to concentrate on stitching in any significant way for some time now due to chronic pain and the dullness that the pain meds cause but having finished this piece gives me hope for my stitching future.  I also love the framing which was lovingly done by MJ of "Art Effects" in High River, Alberta.

BAS Week 35 - Bullion Stitch

This time the BAS Challenge is a stitch that can be used in either seams or motifs. It is an incredibly versatile stitch once you learn it. I put off learning the bullion stitch because I found it very intimidating, but I have to say that once I got the hang of it I have had a lot of fun with it. The possibilities are almost endless..... bullion roses... ... figures like watering cans... ...Christmas puddings... ... this little robin and worm - my personal favourite!... ....romantic hearts filled with roses... ... even a beehive and little bees.... ... or baby rattles! See, the possibilities really are endless! Now that I hope I have you inspired with ideas, here is the scoop on this stitch. It is simply a glorified french knot! There is an excellent video tutorial on Mary Corbet's Needle'nThread blog in her Video Library of Stitches. Mary has also written very good information and tips in this post.
