One more craft bites the dust

I spent a few hours making this I got the trim all embroidered and made the " sausage style pillowcase. They are so easy to do and neat with their french seems, everything is encased. Soon I will have to look for a mate! Maybe on Thursday when I am not so busy. We will see!

I can hardly get into my shed as the Bougainvillea is a blooming, I hate to trim it back. It seems as if the growth takes place on the older shoots, I will have to do some research. It is looking mighty pretty

Look who came for a walk with us

We were walking Brandy and look who we found, minding it's own business merrily eating grass. The turtle seemed to be close to a size of 12" across, we looked and flicked a picture but I did not bring it home!

just because i can

Here is my latest gag gift, a roll of embroidered toilet paper, The good news is that it is either on display or you remove the first sheet!

How many curved seams do you see?

So it is way too hot to craft and we look for airconditioned digs in the heat of the day, We are getting very familiar with all the shops! And of course don't let me forget the great library in Leesburg.

Quite often in the after diner hours I do a little crafting , I have just completed this top for Victoria Quilts of Canada, once home it will hit the long arm to get completed. The design is called apple core and there are a ton of seams as you can see!
