Hi Ladies!
This is a pillowcase that I am working on for the pillowcase swap. It is more that half done. The birds and vines are done. Half of the flowers have the outer petal done and next I will be working on the inner petal. Then the leaves and this one is done...Only 3 more to do after this one! Hope you like it!
The Front:
And the Back:
And The Front Again a few days later, Just the leaves left!:
And I just finished!!

Thanks ladies!
I have decided that I will work on the embroidery a little bit every night this week and hopefully by next Sunday that can just be my "project of the day" instead of cleaning and such. I was hoping to get more work done on this in the car on my long trips to Wyoming, but it didn't happen. But when I do sit downand work on it, it does go pretty fast- so that is good. :D

So pretty, Alee. Those are the kinds of things that I snap up at estate sales and such, because I know how much work goes into them. You have one lucky swap partner!!

Yesterday I finished all the flower petals in blue and now I am most of the way through with doing pink on the inside of the petals. Then all I have to do is the leaves!!! I am so excited! I think I am almost done!

Alee, you are such a talented girl. I love the design and your stitching is really lovely. You should be very proud of yourself!

Okay- I can't find my camera, but I am half done with the second pillow case. I am debating whether I should just do 4 of the same pattern or do two patterns for the swap-
Any ideas?
