Spot the Difference.....

I like to keep different projects in their own little plastic containers.... where all the thread etc is so I can pick up and go sew......

I also like to thread several needles at a time...... can you see them there on a piece of scrap felted blanket?

well - they don't have to live on a piece of scrap anymore......

Melody sent me this fantastic little fellow (his name is Mr Owl) who stores my needles and has a little pocket to care for my thimble (can you see his tummy is bulging?)

Mr Owl is such a character - and very handsome in his bright colours so I can find him easily and has no problem with carrying flowers for me

Thanks Melody - we have already made great friends and spent an afternoon together working on my Christmas Club item which I am doing with Cookies and Cream Crafts...

I have finished my Backstitch homework lesson with Helen

I'm getting quite good practice doing these lessons

and my July Birdie Stitches from Little Miss Shabby
these stitcheries use 6 thread and finish quite quickly
(so does the thread!!)

(I made a few adaptions as these two have immigrated to Australia - we don't celebrate 4th of July but we do love fireworks)

Here's hoping you spend some time in your Happy Place
