I am a 40-something housewife that loves to make my home a cheerful place for my husband and myself. I love working each day on my handwork and inspiring others to unlock their creative muses.
I have a blog where I write about my handwork and one in which I write about the changing seasons and things around my home and garden. Please stop by and visit me. While there, don't forget to leave a comment. I love hearing from you!
I want to thank everyone who has honored me with an award or tag. I have decided to make my blog an award free zone as I find it difficult to pick and choose myself among the blogs I love. I think every blog is great in its own way.
This weekend I started a few new projects and these are the finishes. My April pinkeep is one with a fun theme ~ the kids rhyme 'Rain, rain go away; Come again another day'. I love the backing fabric which is from the Aunt Grace series of 1930s quilt fabrics.
I also made two wool felt hedgehog pincushions. Meet Napoleon (left) and Harry (right)! Harry is going to live with an online friend. Napoleon is living here with me as he was the first one I made. My husband gave him his name quite by accident. He asked me why I was making Napoleon's hat when I was starting to sew it together. The name stuck!
Oh Heidi these are some of my favorites yet! I also have the hedgehog pattern - how could you resist? And, I love your new pinkeep in every way. It's adorable!
Heidi, Is there no end to your talent? I love your hedgehogs and the names seem just perfect for them somehow. The latest pinkeep is a cute one. Looking forward to more of your wool felt creations :) Margaret
Heidi I have seen that design before but can't recall can you let me know who its by. Love it, you did such a nice job. Oh and the hedgehogs are just so cute. I love your blog, you always make the prettiest things.
