A Spring Bunny Finish

Hello Friends:

I have a finish to show you today! I won't lie, I broke my little rule of not purchasing any new stitching projects until I finished something. I honestly couldn't help it and wouldn't you believe that I finished the project that I purchased. Go figure right?

I just fell in love with this little pattern from The Snowflower Diaries after I saw it all stitched and finished on Carol's blog here. Surprisingly, the sun was out full force this afternoon so my picture is a little bright. You may want to grab your sunglasses.  :-)




"Tulips with Bunny" by Maja @ The Snow Flower Diaries.
Stitched on 28Ct Ivory Jobelan
Stitched with the called for Hand Dyed Threads by Nina's Threads. Thread pack is available on Nina's Etsy Shop here.


Such a sweet design isn't it? I love bunnies and the colors in this design are stunning. I haven't decided if I want to finish this as a pillow or as an ornament. Decisions, Decisions. If you haven't visited Maja's blog, you are missing some great stuff. Her patterns are all super cute designs and the best part is they are free on her blog. She is also having a very generous giveaway right now until August 4. You don't want to miss that.

Hmmm, I think I'm going to hop over to Nina's shop and get a thread pack for another one of Maja's patterns. I feel the itch to start another one.

Thanks for visiting with me tonight. I hope you have a wonderful week.

Stay Cool!

Giveaway Winner!

First off I want to say Happy Belated 4th of July to my American blogging friends. I hope you had a wonderful day filled with family, friends, food and fireworks. I had a lovely time yesterday at my parent's house. My sister came from San Fransisco to visit for the week. I was glad to see her as Monday she will be leaving to Hong Kong to work for 6 months. She is excited for her new adventure and I am excited for her. Honestly, I'm glad it is her going and not me. I would be freaking out at the thought of working in a foreign country for 6 months.

So getting down to business! We have a winner of the $25 gift certificate to either 123 Stitch or The Fat Quarter Shop. First I want to say Thank You to you lovely ladies that commented. I wish I could give something to everyone, but alas I didn't win the lottery this week.

I had 17 comments. Each comment was numbered in the order they were received. I used Random.Org for a number. 

Our winner is: Lucky No. 7! 


Congratulations!!!!

Thanks again everyone. I hope you all have a wonderful rest of the weekend.

*Hugs and Sunshine from Miami*
