Teeny Tiny Bit

I've done a teeny tiny little wee bit of work on my cushion cover and unfortunately I wasn't able to get a photo until the light was pretty much gone, so please excuse the quality of these photos...




Both of these seams are in the sky section.  There is a lot more stitching yet to go in the sky, so you'll have to stay tuned to see what happens next.  Actually, I'll have to stay tuned too, because I haven't a clue what I'll do next either!!

A couple of interesting things from my travels that you might find interesting...

- For those of you who like eco-dyeing, there's an interesting article HERE.  

- I am not suggesting that any of you need help with cleaning (nor am I suggesting that you take time away from your creative pursuits to take part in such activities), however if you really feel you must, you might like to check out the suggestions HERE for hard to clean areas.

Here's another of the pieces I found within my mother's collection...

I'd like to be a could-be
If I could not be an are,
For a could-be is a may-be
With some chance of touching par.
I'd rather be a has-been
Than a might-have-been, by far.
For a might-have-been has never been
But a has-been was an are.

Thank you so much for leaving comments! I appreciate you taking the time out of your busy life to talk to me. It's wonderful to know that someone is actually reading my mumblings and even more fun if I can connect with you and visit your blog.
