How about patterns for making a blackwork (or any colour you'd like!) biscornus? Pam Kellogg has released her book filled with wonderful patterns and the how to for making your own. Go HERE to read her post! I know these are on my list to make.
You might want to check out the links to tons of free embroidery patterns that can be found on Eglantine Stitchery HERE. (Thanks for this one Judy!). Be sure to make a pot of tea because there is lots to explore.
And finally, your quote for today...."To keep your marriage loving cup brimming, whenever you are wrong, admit it; when you are right, shut up"
Oh my, so much inspiration!! I've put creating on hold for awhile until we sell this house and move into the new one and it's about to kill me! (I do have a crochet afghan going) I let my daughter borrow my sewing machine to make some chair cushions so that's keeping me from starting any big projects. I could do a few of those plastic canvas coasters, though!! ;) Zenda
