Apron News

The new apron - I have been busy! I have now switched gears for Christmas. Dolly Dilettante is knocking herself out making dollie Christmas trees, Christmas crowns, sweet pinafores, bibs, dolls, more checkbooks covers, quilties, decoupage Victorian boxes and lavender sachet hearts.

I can't keep up with myself . . . sewing up a storm in the hills of Vermont . . .

Peek at my Embroideries


Indian girl doorstop I embroidered and sewed onto a brick. I made my own pattern to cover the brick and made several of these. I can dig out the pattern sometime if you would like a simple tutorial.

Next project - embroidered days of the week kitchen towels

The Yellow Apron




Not finished yet but you get to see it first. Lined with gingham, gingham embroidered pocket, 100% cotton, woman's size medium. I have so much fun making little aprons, I believe I am getting addicted to it!

Thrifty Finds

OP SHOPPING IN THE STATES:

A georgeous big blue teapot.

Am I out of my mind? I drink coffee for heaven's sake.
Ride em cowboy! Great fabric for a boy.
A handmade thingamajig to hang in my studio. I love the bright color and the hummingbirds.
An ugly orange apron.
I love it, I love it, I love my new nightlight teapot.
Another pic of my inchie that still fascinates me. Why do people make them, I wonder. I first saw them a few months ago on Judy Scott's blog (click on my favorite blog sites to view Judy's inchies.) Maybe it is a "Scotland" thing to do. I dunno. What do you do with them? Beats me. I just had to make one. Monkey see, Monkey do.
