The title of this is "ATC Quilted Flower" - I don't know why it won't come up in English - interesting though!











I've remembered how quick it is to make an ATC and so made another today.

Award

Many thanks Dawne for this award.
I think it should be passed to just five friends, but it is so difficult to do this. So I would like all the talented friends who read this to accept it. Thank you all for visiting and giving me so much pleasure each time I see your work! Connie.

On my desk ... ATC "Ribbons & Fibres"

http://kootoyoo.blogspot.com/2008/06/on-my-desk-players.html

I wanted to use some of the lovely assortment I bought last week so made this - the background is a scrap of pink silk grosgrain - I haven't made an ATC for some months. It was a nice change, and quick to do.

Melange on Fabric

This postcard is for a friend. I love sewing with silk ribbon so used some here. The background fabric is from a remnant that has been in my box for years.
Viv is right, on previous blog, there's not much room left in our house for more threads, fibres and suchlike, but I still love to see and buy more. I guess there are worse addictions!

I ordered this gorgeous assortment from Stef Francis only yesterday!
I'm thrilled with it and wondering just what I'll stitch.

It's very dreary, cold, and wet this morning but the mosaic adds a bit of cheer!

...... well not actually on my desk, it's a piano stool top in need of TLC. I stitched it years ago, the colours are not as bright as they were (enhanced here to near original), and the braid around the edge is tatty. So I'm wondering whether to take it off, wash it and add new braid - or to dump it and start again. I'll think about it!

Ice

Mosaic made in Flickr Toys http://bighugelabs.com/flickr/mosaic.php

The ice patterns on the outside of the conservatory windows were so lovely this morning - but now they are gone, except as pictures!
The Mosaic reminds me of the Winter Post Card made earlier this week.

The last day of the year .... not too many reflections as several are so sad .... yet John and I are lucky, we keep well, happy,
and appreciate all our lovely family and so many friends.
Home, holidays, and hobbies take up our time in a most enjoyable way.
Many thanks to all friends who visit me here, on Flickr, and Docrafts and a very healthy, happy New Year to all.
