All these luscious seam bindings arrived in the mail yesterday - all the way from the Netherlands! Every single, silky color is so lovely. I use them in my ribbon embroideries, so they're going to become beautiful ruched trims and satiny blossoms. Yards and yards of scruptious, glorious, fabulous bindings.Oh! I'm so sorry. I guess I'm getting carried away. I'll put them away for now, but I promise I'll show you what I create with them, as always!
The second envelope I opened was from Australia, and I recognized the name and return address right away! Another treasure from far away. My friend, Margaret Lewis, created a new ATC for me. This one is called "Sunset". Her fabulous work really takes my breath away! Handpainted backgrounds and embroidered trees. sigh Thank you, sweet Margaret. I'm so tickled to own another of your beautiful works of art.
I also finished the Butterfly Baby quilt yesterday. I'll photograph it in daylight today and then share it with you in my next post. I'm really happy with how it turned out and am anxious to debut it for you!Thank you for all the kind comments about my Banana Nut Bread recipe yesterday. I appreciate all your kind comments. I did get a couple of requests on how I make my own vanilla extract, so I'll be doing a tutorial for you in the near future. Thanks for asking!Until tomorrow, then.
