STITCH ME UP

 

Welcome to my day for this wonderful blog hop. All the beautiful creations would not be happening but for the hard work of Madame Samm and Jane.  Wonderful pattern designs by Debbie, Cyndi and Mdm Samm made choosing a project very difficult. Thank you all.

Because  I believe "TEA &  STITCHES"  always go together I began with this embroidery.

 Yesterday American and Quilting on FB wrote:

"One of the benefits of embroidery is that it lets you slow the world down as you stitch."  Add a cup of tea and it might come to a stop. ;~}

I could not resist a Wee Tot. And then I found the paper dolls. When fussy cut they made perfect quilt partners.

 A Wee Tot should never be alone so I stitched her a friend. But they both love pink shoes.

I

It was a difficult day to take outdoor pictures. 

Dare I admit that I still have an "old" doll around.

 It is hard to stop when stitching begins. This will become a cushion cover. 

I could not resist this embroidery. Perfect as we move into another season. Wishing you all a Happy Easter. 

Sew take a moment before you start stitching again,  grab a cuppa tea and check out the other embroidery ladies on this hop.

Frances

    You did a wonderful job of stitching. The quilt with the paper dolls and Wee Tot is fabulous. I noticed the crocheted cloth behind some of your pictures. We have a tablecloth that my husband's great aunt made for us in the same pattern. Loved seeing yours. :)
