A Winter Wonderland

I love how Fons & Porter displayed my design in this months issue of "Love of Quilting". I am designing new ideas to send off, who knows where these buttons will go next!

Scotty menagerie

One of my favorite things to stitch. I never tire of seeing how these pups look in different colors of fabric and thread. No wonder they've been a main stay for years.

This measures 8" X 13" each Scotty is about 3" across. Sweetie pies...

Sewing chair re-do.

I found this chair awhile back at a thrift store. I remember seeing them when I was a child and thought I would take it home and clean it up.

After a thorough cleaning, I sewed a new pin cushion seat for it, put little "tufts" in it with two strands of floss and stuck some ceramic pin tops I had made in it. Found a pair of scissors for the top and six little spools of thread that I found at a thrift store. It turned out so cute! I boxed it up along with some other goodies for my secret Santa swap and sent her off!

Hope she likes it!
