More Lace and Lovely Roses

Wow what a busy day today. I have been running around the house doing things all day. But, most of it was gardening and I always have so much fun doing that. My son got out early and he pitched in after lunch. We had a lot fun getting new herbs planted and putting out some new solar lights in the backyard. It was time well spent.

Here is the lace bookmark I made for my son! Isn't he cute? I just love the way he came out. He has a really nice sheen too. I used Madeira Polyneon thread and I was very happy with it. Once again, I used the Jenny Haskins Dissolve Magic. I love that stuff. He's pretty big though. My son doesn't seem to care at all. He's very happy with his bookmark.

I just had to share these. My friend Karen sent me lavender roses. Aren't they lovely? Darn the luck I couldn't get them to look the actual color in the photo. They look a bit pink. It was so thoughtful of her. I put them in my sewing room so I can look at them all day. I smile every time I see them.



Well, it's back to machine embroidery "stuff". Have you tried www.AnnTheGran.com? It is a great site and their designs are fantastic.
