It is so nice to be making a mess in my sewing room again after such a long time. Thank you for all your sweet comments and well wishes. One of the things I'm told often is how this little blog is a quiet stop on your regular walks around the web and that you worry when I'm not here. I worry when I'm not here, too! This is one of my happy places and I miss it when I can't be here. Thanks for being patient with me. We're back!
And we're makin' stuff. Nothing amazing. Just little things I use in my stitching. Remember those beautiful Czech glass beads I was going on about in this post? I finally got a few maids-of-all-work made (link to those in that post) and also some lemony counting pins and a lemon slice needle minder. Very summery.
Speaking of needle minders, I haven't made any in a long time. While I was digging around in my finishing stash I ran across some pictures I had saved from the envelopes that Lang calendars come in. On the back of the envelope, all the months of the year are shown in very small pictures. I saved them thinking they might make pretty needle minders. I also got out my 1" round punch, some 1" wooden disks, some Diamond Glaze, and some magnets.
Pretty new needle minders for summer!
The Diamond Glaze gives them a nice, shiny finish.
This one reminds me a little of sweet Tiger Lily.
I'm also elbow-deep in finishing and will have some things to share soon... it's extremely Christmassy in the sewing room!
Happy Stitching!
