Hello Sweeties!
Thank you all so much for your lovely visits and for participating in my little giveaway!
Instead of giving away one shamrock pin, I've decided to make it two! I asked the Random Number
Generator to pick two winners. :)
Number 14 came up first, which is Basia
and number 6 came up next, which is Shirley.
(Numbers were given from 1 to 46 in the same order your comments were left.)
Your shamrocks will be on their way as soon as I can
get your mailing info. :)
I finished up two more hearts this week...
The pink one is for a
friend, and the blue is for Etsy.
I also started a couple of new birdie
pins with a bit of a new shape. It's pretty much my same birdie, but with downward pointing tail feathers instead of up. ;)
As you can see I haven't gotten too far, with
just one having his embroidered eye done. I don't embroider the beaks on my
birdie pins, I paint them on. I've been doing it this way for years. I
find it just looks neater in the end if I do it like this. I'm still playing around with
which thread colors to use, but that's part of the fun of creating
anything...all the possibilities! I'll show you how they turn out in next
week's post.
The other day I baked up a batch of chocolate chip cookies. I got the recipe from the adorable cookbook "The Back In the Day Bakery Cookbook".
Crispy and delicious...all the
cookies were gone by days end, and I promise I didn't eat them all by myself, but I did make a
pretty good dent in that plate of yumminess!
I hope you all have a really fun week, and I'll pop in again next week!

ReplyDeleteGreetings Miranda
Lucky Basia and Shirley!! How in the world did I miss that giveaway??! Drat! The clover is darling -- as are your hearts. How long have you been doing this? And do you use felted wool? Your creations are really quite scrumptious. Your blog is generally where I go when I need to look at pretty things!! :)
ReplyDeleteYour pieces always make me smile. Love the new hearts. Happy spring.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to the lucky winners and I have to say that I love your wee heart pins. You put so much detail into making them. Oh yes - and now I'm hungry too!!
ReplyDeleteHello lovely Paulette, and congrats to the lucky winners of your fab shamrock pins! It's so nice to see your work in progress and your drawing of the little bird is so beautiful. Your little hearts are so sweet too, and the cookies - well - they REALLY are sweet in the truest meaning of the word! Lovely to catch up again my dear, take care of yourself and keep up with your gorgeous work! Warm hugs, Joy xoxo

ReplyDelete...Your hearts are nothing short of amazing! Such perfection & beauty! I hope you pat yourself on the back often Miss Beedeebabee... :o)
