This is a pillow I made a while back, one of my favorites. I'm working on another one now, almost done. I might try some kind of a tote bag next. MAYBE.

Love both. Your needlwork always looks so lovely. I've just started embroidering a stamped wall quilt. It's done in one color it's supposed to be red work, but I'm doing it in blue (although pink is my favorite color) then I think I am going to add some pretty flowered material as a border. Of course it's going to take me a while before I finish it.

Don't you love thrift shopping? We have weekly yard sales in Hemet and that is the only way some people can make money. Find a good deal and sell it at your yard sale on Saturday!
I found a milking stool for $3 at a thrift shop that benefits kids whose parents are in prison. I am more than happy to patronize them.

Thank you girls. Embroidery is somewhat additive. I'm working on a small one now, might finish it today. Then I might do a few kitchen towels.I just hope my stitching will be neat enough, because you can see the back of the towel. Maybe I could sew a patch over the back to cover it up. Well it would have to be a cute patch.

I can't do embroidery for the life of me. Do you sell your embroidered towels? I would love to have a couple for my kitchen!

No I don't Terri, but I bet there are girls on here that might make some to sell. Ask up in the barter section.
