These 2 pictures are of a little needlecase and scissors fob I kind of made up. I got the patterns from The Ackworth School pattern book from Jacqueline Holdsworth. I sent them to my dear friend Peggy Middleton, who is living in Toronto, Canada for another 2-1/2 years. I miss her terribly! Our daughters are best friends and so we have had a wonderful friendship for the past 17 years.

This is the front:
This is the back:

These next pictures are of my Berry Pynboxe, by Historic Stitches and Liberty Hill. I've had this since Christmas but didn't get around to stitching it until a couple of weeks ago. It was easy and very quick!

This is a pattern from "Joined at the Hip" #171 Vintage Pincushion. My sister gave me all the "ingredients" to stitch and finish this. It matches my house perfectly.

I'll be back again when I have something else to say....well I always have something to say...but putting it in writing is something else....

Hope some of you are planning on the Shepherd's Bush Retreat in September of this year. My sister, Cari in Florida is coming and has her plane ticket...I know Alison is coming too....anyone else?? See you soon!
