white on white

Are you sick of me yet? Every day posting getting you down? White on white giving you nightmares? I aplogise for both but I am just having so much fun. My embroidery has mostly happened in the evening this week, most of my days spent on this computer but 6 p.m. until 1a.m is quite a bit of stitching, only trouble is I can't get out of bed when the alarm goes off!! I feel like I'm living the life of a party animal without the party. Not complaining at all and every so often I flick a duster around or feed the thinnest looking family member so it looks like I'm attending to my housewifely duties too! This one is now you know where, I can never wait until I have a few, too impatient.

and can you see in the picture below.....I extended the buttonhole lace and connected it to the other edge making pockets!! Can you tell I am pleased with myself???

I popped to the shops this morning and look what I found, 2 beautiful pillow covers in a charity (thrift) shop for only £2.50, around $4 and these gorgeous offcuts of embroidered Broderie Anglaise for 20p around 30 cents each!!! How lucky am I.

Right, drum roll, I have drawn the pin winners. Sorry you couldn't all win and I'm afraid to report that I haven't had any luck on the lottery yet so you will have to wait on that one.

So could Jane from Looplou Adventures into Handicrafts, Rachel from Virtuoso Adventures and Judy from Discovering Textiles send me your postal details and these measly, scrawny, single packets of pins will be winging their way to you in no time.
Have a lovely weekend, I don't know if I'll be back tomorrow, depends if I get up when the alarm goes off!!
