My favorite snowman....


LK "Let It Snow"
stitched on 28ct khaki evenweave
w/DMC

Well....I made him my own. 
I goofed when I started the scarf which
resulted in changing the color scheme. 
Too lazy to rip out the wrong color, I carried
on and used a little pink, which I really liked.  
I figured I would carry on and change the
hat color to light blue with a little more pink. 
I just love him. 
I still think he needs a little pompom at
the end of his hat.  Hmmm...will need to
do something about that.

I saw this card on Pinterest a few weeks
ago and I just couldn't get it out of my mind.  
I just had to try and make one...


I had to do a little figuring on this one to get
the mechanics correct and I'm pretty happy
with my first attempt.   I really like the
flowers/leaves layout in the original card
better so I  will make it like that next time.

This was my Friday night project.

The idea of weaving a paper basket came to
me Friday night after I had gone to bed. 
I was up Saturday by 5:30 am
(thanks to a tornado warning)
and so I decided to give it a try.

Summertime is calling me....

I was amazed how easily these came to together.
So I made some more....

{Love} the yellow flower basket...

  I am just pleased at punch with these.

Now that the creative juices were flowing,
I thought I would make a clay pot. 
  
Not to shabby if I say so myself....

  I have a tendency to overindulge when I
 find something I like so I wouldn't be
surprised if I have a hundred of these
by the end of the month!

I haven't stitched in 4 days.... so I'm off to remedy
that and put a few stitches in something!

As always...thanks for visiting.
happy stitching....
