Brynwood Needleworks - Embroidered Chicken and Honey Bunny Cottage Box |
When artistic friends barter, it's a win/win for everyone! Such was the case when my friend, Gisselle told me she loved my recent "coop-ful" of chickens. She offered to trade one for one of her fabulous, handcrafted sewing boxes. She had recently shared photos of this one on Facebook, so I asked about it, and she said yes!
Well, getting one of her beautiful boxes warranted a little bit fancier chicken, so I got out some of my linen and white floss and set to making an embroidered one for her. Gosh! I had so much fun!!

If you're interested in owning one of Gisselle's boxes, you can find her as Honey Bunny Cottage on Facebook. She's also on Instagram @honeybunnycottage. This chick is flying away today with my thanks.
that was definitely a win-win - box and chick, both wonderful!
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful for you and Gisselle to barter and swap your talented hand crafted items. This embroidered chicken is lovely and I love the yardstick boxes Gisselle creates. I use mine all the time. Creative Bliss for you both.
ReplyDeleteI love her boxes...we had bartered a bag for a box a few years ago. Love that chicken you made for her...fancy indeed! xo
