For the Love of Hand Embroidery~


Check out the cute owls and quilt
Bea made!
Bea is the guest on Jane's Fabrics and Quilts today!
Every Monday she will have a new guest.


And,
I forgot to add all of the quilt last week,
so here is the rest of it.  
How many of these quotes do you remember hearing.....

For The Love of Hand Embroidery~

Jane came up with a fun idea this summer
and I asked if I could join the party.

I enjoy a good time, and think this will be one! 

Each Monday there will be someone sharing 
hand embroidery.

Today is Kris T 's turn.
Please hop over to her blog to take a look!

This is the bottom half of a vintage quilt I rescued from a under a pile at
an antique store.
Someone spent a lot of time lovingly working on the stitches..
quilting and embroidery.
I think the embroidered quotes were free-hand, 
but the entire piece is hand-worked.


My photographer just returned to school (sad face),
so when I saw how she caught both her and I in this sunny day picture
I kept us together.....
