Another Beautiful Gift - Garden Jewels


Garden Jewels
Originally uploaded by Kitty And Me.
I received this beautiful framed x stitch piece from my dear friend and model stitcher Kim for Christmas. This is "Garden Jewels" and it's one of my designs. I did it as a mystery project last Summer. Kim and I share a great love of hummingbirds and it just means so much to me to have Kim's beautiful and perfect stitching hanging in my home.

I currently have this piece hanging in my Living Room but I'll be moving it into my computer room here shortly. I just have to take 2 other framed pieces down and fill one of the little nail holes. I think it'll look great in here. My walls are sponge painted a light green and I have wisteria stenciled over the door and window corners. I'll take another pic when I have it hanging in here.

This is my mom's first attempt at Crazy Quilting. It's a small heart shaped doorknocker. I have it hanging on the corner of the mirror on my antique dresser. Not bad at all for a first attempt! This was for my birthday as well.

I have a few more gifts to share with you and I'll do that tomorrow.

Also, I've almost completed the Valentine Ornament #2. I expect to have the ready later today so I'll share that tomorrow as well.

One can never have too many totebags! Especially when you're a stitcher!

Mom made this for me for my birthday.

Redwork Snowman Pillow

Thought I would share one more photo with you today. This wasn't a gift. I made this redwork pillow about 3 years ago. I found the picture on one of my clip art CD's and it looked old fashioned so I decided to stitch it. The fabric border came from Keepsake Quilting. I had the fabric first so I just matched the DMC thread color up to that.
