Hello Everyone,
I spent the day garage sale hunting and I found the most wonderful find- a wicker storage trunk for $2.50! It is now happily storing my blankets and table linens right next to my bed. I am so very tickled!
I got a dress for free, a bell for free as a memento of a dear neighbor who just passed away this past week. Blanche may you rest in peace with the angels Hun.
I did not get to make my wildflower pincushion as I had to spend the day rearranging everything in the bedroom to make room for the wicker storage trunk. I plan to hopefully work on it tomorrow after my nap.
Sorry to be short tonight but I am really exhausted after working so hard today, but I'm happy!
Until next we meet... Happy Creativity!!

Wildflower Pincushion Finished
Hello Everyone,
I just finished my first Wildflower Pincushion! It was so fun to make. The hardest part for me was cutting everything out. I plan to make another for myself. This one is for my loving sister-in-law Maureen who is lovingly caring for her original client Bev and now my father -in-law Don whom I lovingly call Pa Bear. She deserves a treat as she sacrifices so very much in caring for these people in her own home. Maureen, You truly are an angel! {{{hugz}}}.
I have this cute little counted cross stitch that I received as a present a few years ago that I have been thinking of using as my jumping off point to Embroidery along with Sharon B's Stitch Dictionary. The little cross stitch has a wonderful saying on it that quotes " each day... a new beginning ". It has a view looking out of a window at the blue sky, sun,grass,and flowers. Then it has two flowers on either side of the quote and five flowers beneath the quote. it comes complete with a hoop, thread, a needle,and lace to finish it off.
I am also thinking of doing a new tote bag as mine finally fell apart. I have some cute ideas in mind but I am not sure I have the fabric for it right now.
In happy news, I finally received my Birthday Ballerina Slippers! YAY! They were made for me by Just Plain Flats Thank you so very much Mr. Moery !
Grrr! Picasa is acting up or my net is one. So I will use Photobucket instead. I will beat the system Mwhahaha!
I wish you all a very creative day!
Until next we meet :o)

Wildflower Pincushion and Crafting Links
Hello Everyone,
I sure hope that you are having a wonderful weekend.
I had a wonderful time on my birthday which was Saturday the 26th. My hubby took me for a most wonderful 8 hour round trip to commemorate my turning the big 40. It was so beautiful, so much greenery and lovely flowers, mostly Lupine. We ended the day by stopping and viewing Snoqualmie Falls.The most precious part of the whole trip was being able to spend all the time with my sweet, loving,caring,wonderful husband. It was completely computer and Android free, YAY!!!
Well, here is the link to the cute little Wildflower Pincushion. Give it a try and let your creativity flow. Send me an email with a picture of yours when you finish it (or them). I would dearly love to see them.
In fact, I think I shall get started on my pincushion :o).
If you are into crocheting as I am then head on over to Crochet Me.
Another good one is Crocknit. However, she is in the middle of an upgrade and the pattern pages are not yet working except for the free patterns. I have sent her an email regarding this.
If you are into quilting then head on over to Free Patterns another great place to start if you are a beginner is Easy Quilts
For jewelry patterns then head on over to Fire Mountain Gems Easy Projects.
Another great place to visit is Craft Bits. They have a variety of recycled and upcycled crafts.
Well, folks that is it for today. Hopefully, tomorrow I will be posting my finished pincushion :o). If not then bear with me as I am almost out of white thread.
Happy creating until next time we meet!
