I just had to come back and share this one from Cathy which didn’t get into my last post….

cathy shares….

I have some incredible finishes to share with you!  Cathy is a very talented needle woman, as you saw in this post.  Recently, she sent me some photos of her latest pieces and I am simply in awe!000_1209000_1375 000_1109 000_1440 000_1276

Wow!  Aren’t they wonderful?  Cathy does not, currently, offer her patterns for sale, but the second she does I will let you know!  Thank you, Cathy, for allowing me to share your beautiful projects!

I’ve been working on some Halloween themed pieces, too.  It’s going very slowly, however, because my arms hurt.  I have no idea why.  Maybe it’s related to my sciatica which I’ve been spending time with lately?  Lilly’s been trying to make me feel better….

One piece that I’d really like to finish is Wytch and Cat pull toy….

The little wytch sits in her pumpkin.  She’ll have two arms and I think she’ll hold a jack-o-lantern.

Cat is a little bigger than Wytch.  I’m planning to use autumnal colors…

Now, here’s some exciting news!  Marion has started a blog!  It’s wonderful!  You can check it out by clicking here.  She has some beautiful punched pieces that I’m sure you’ll be interested in seeing!

Finally, Chris sent me a picture of her Wytches finishes:

Aren’t they fabulous!  I love how beautifully aged they look.  Thank you, Chris, for allowing me to share your finishes!  (You can find the patterns in my etsy shop ~ click here.)

 

wishing you sunny weather!
