The makings of a really cute pillow
I saw this bird needlepoint the other day while I was thrift shopping. I really liked it, but didn't want to pay 5.00 for it. It is so easy for me to collect things that I really need to be sure I LOVE it before I bring it home, otherwise the clutter-monster moves in ...and that's bad. Anyway, later that night rummaging through my material, I realized that I had some fabric that would make the cutest patchwork pillow with that needlepoint as the center. I rushed back the next day and gladly paid the 5 bucks. I'm hoping to start it this week.
I finished my apron for this months tie one on theme, an apron from clothes. A picture of that coming sometime this week.
oohhh, knowing you and your talent, it's going to look fab. Can't wait for the pic.
