Stitchwork

I've let a few days of nonblogging slip by with my mom being in the hospital.  Unfortunately I also caught a cold and lost my mojo...blah.  Luckily I could still craft as I had an order to fill for my coworker's parent's 60th wedding anniversary.  Here's a quick pic of a pillow box I decorated for their Vegas themed party!


Anyway my mom is back home now and continues to recover which makes me feel like I'll recover my mojo with more challenges like Lawnscaping Challenge: Stitching ! My mom would not be so proud of my "stitchwork" as she is an incredible seamstress, but I think she would find it cute.


I made my own background paper using So Much To Say.  Then die cut the heart and "stitched" the little edges with some Lawn Trimmings.  Fussy cut the Good Fortune pieces to place in the center and for a little faux stitching added that cute little zigzag look from Home Sweet Home.

Mahalo for stopping by!
