I do know that I am definitely turning pink. The colours that shout at me from my thread boxes are all pink, lots of variations of pink but pink all the same. I think some cold turkey may be called for so perhaps next time I will revert to white, just to remind myself that there is more than pink in Karens world. I shouldn't be suprised at the appearance of pink though. Thinking about it I once had a pink kettle, I loved it, adored it in fact. Sadly it died the day after the guarantee ran out. Why does that happen? Are all electrical appliances programmed to self destruct the day after the guarantee runs out? I think probably yes!
Today I received the beautiful blogger award again! This time from Rachel, a mean embroiderer herself I might add. Once again I would like it to be known that she means me, not the blog! Thanks Rachel!

this is absolutely marvelous, Karen!
Love the window mounting. Makes the embroidery even more elegant.
wow you have been busy,gorgeous work as always:-)
and congrat on the award
I think it looks good both with and without the window mounting,i usually prefer without,but now i dont know....and YES you are right about electrical appliances,hate that they dont last......
Gorgeous work!
These are BEYOND beautiful!!!! I hope I'm quick enough to get one of these next time!! Now that I'm back in college, My online time is so limited. I love these bits of colour... keep it up!
HuGGs!
Lovely! I personally like the window mounting.
What a pretty pile!
Yummmy Yummmmy and just delicious!
Love the little windows....I think they set off your work and make it look even more precious...like little jewels.
Well first of all - electrical items. In the last few months we've replaced a tumble drier, washing machine, vacuum cleaner, fridge, food processor, casette deck, CD.... Need I say more? I think this house must have curse surges! And now to the little books. I love them all! Every single one of them. Regarding windows or not windows, I tend to agree with you. The windows are lovely but the ones with the embroidery placed on top seem to be more about the embroidery. And I'm assuming the windows are a little more work...? Anyway - all lovely work!

These look absolutely enchanting, Karen. I feel that rather than having only windows or only not windows, better to mix them up - some of your fragments may be happier with a crisp edge around them.
As for electrics - absolutely. Just before I logged on our kettle went kerput!
Stunning little pieces and perfect for your books....I especially love those hexagons with the daisies. I think the little windows look great.
