About my header

My shed is my header by my son Darrell, He painted the Robin for me and said that it reminded him of me. Because Robins use other birds nest and if there is an egg in it, they will take care of it just like its their own. He said thats what I do, I have always taken care of others in need of a home when I come across someone in need. Isnt that Sweet, I had told him I wanted a bird and this is the one he chose. Robins have solid blue eggs which are the symbols for him and his brothers and the speckled egg are the others I have taken into my home. It was very touching to me because he researched his piece, He is a true artist and has lots of great jobs. my neighbor had hers done to

MY SCRAPS HAVE BEEN GROWING SO I NEED TO SCRAP BUST . DO YOU SEE WHATS STOPPING ME.. 



OUR FIRST CRAFTING EXPERIENCE MAKING OUR EASTER EGG FOOT PRINT. This is Liberty my 3rd granddaughter 4 months old.

I MADE EASTER BANNERS OUT OF LINED TABLE CLOTHES AND THEY WERE EASY AND STILL UP.. THEY MIGHT  LIKELY  STAY UP FOR SUMMER AROUND THE PLAY HOUSE. 
I DID A ZIG ZAG STITCH ON THE STRING AND STAPLED THE CORNER.. BY CUTTING ON THE FOLD THEY WERE 2 SIDED.. 


I HAVE BEEN EPP ALOT, ALOT.... I finally finished me a table runner for my side table. I played with some stitching on my machine to quilt it on Essex linen. 

Linking up with stitch by stitch see the linky button on side bar alot of great work out there.
