Row of cute feet

    What I stitched up this weekend, a row of adorable feet.  I love how all of these girls are all lined up together.  This was inspired by a real photograph hence the turned up toes and wiggly hands.  I love pictures of feet.  We have a family pic of all our feet on the beach and I just love that picture.  It is one of my favorites.  My kids feet are so small.  I think I need to stitch our family beach feet :)  I still need to mount this stitch up in a hoop with some cute fabric.



Have a fantastic week!

Spring Bunny!

 Just stitching up some super cutie pie delicious spring time bunny stuff!!  Well mostly I've been working on getting things done for my up coming craft show, but........I'm waiting.  On very important things shipping from China.  Holy moly.....it takes 3 to 4 weeks.  Well today makes 4.  I'm crossing fingers and toes it will show up in the mail tomorrow.  Any who,  I've been working on this cute bunny, a free pattern
by the way by Follow the White Bunny. 


 It's really such a sweet pattern and can be enjoyed in the spring or whenever!  I hope you have a great weekend!!  Hopefully my super important ingredient to all things crafty for the craft show will be delivered tomorrow or at least by Tuesday....geesh!

Stitchy Inspiration!

I'm always looking to be inspired!  Sometimes I need a little dose of  another persons creativity to get me going on a new project.  Or maybe just to get me inspired to finish the project I'm working on.  I use Flicker a lot!!  They have a Embroidery group picture pool that is fantastic.  It is full of amazingly talented artists that share there wonderful works  of embroidery magic.  Here are a few links to some great stitch ups that I love:

I have been crafting like crazy getting ready for my upcoming craft show.  A lot of family activities are happening too.  This makes for a crazy busy life, and I love every minute of it :))
I hope your having a great week and have lots of crafty inspiration!!
