Spring buzz....

These are some lovely buttons of bees that I found on a French website I visit 'Atelier fees Brodeuses' you can also get the bee pins that I have pictured at the bottom...I think they are so nice. This website has some lovely French and European designers onit and is well worth taking a look... sorry I can't do links yet :-(

My other picture is my new charts that have arrived and I am very excited about them by Bent Creek these are the first two (Cottage and Hive)of a set of four in the Spring Snapperland series...there is a really nice border to stitch around the four designs with a saying 'There are always flowers for those who want to see them' at the bottom. Totally lovely but I will resist getting started for a bit as I have to finish a couple of things first... :-)

Today.....

I am hoping to do one of my 'Essy's Friends'.....this is a really pretty pin from Elegant Stitch called Heartfelt Flower by one of my most favourite designers Shepherd's Bush. It is stitched on 32ct R&R Awareness Pink and uses DMC and overdyed threads. These kits are designed to be a charity donation for Breast Cancer Awareness and I have a few lined up now .....so....I had better get started with them :-) I will post a picture later of the finish as I may make it into something other than a pin.
