A great place for anyone who likes hand embroidery.  There's lots to see, a chance to show your own work, workshops, resource shops, challenges and lots more.
The card was part of an Easter ATC swap, the one I made went to a lady in USA.

  1. OMGoodness that Bobby doggy ted is just the cutest! How clever Jennifer is to capture his look so well. That's talent! :)
    And, Snap! Of course I love your PP Collar :)
    The ATC is beautiful Lynn :) It's great to get such petties from Mr/s Postie isn't it? May their waterproofs keep them warm and hold out this current wet wet weather from chilling their bones :)
    I'm intrigued by the upcoming (I hope), button-a-holic post ;)
    Have a great afternoon. I'm not sure if paying to go swimming is really necessary this afternoon, we could just cossie up for the garden, haha x

  7. I've just found your comment on my blog Lynn with the link to here. Sorry, it got buried in rather a lot of spam comments :( I think your crochet Bobby dog is absolutely lovely - very cleverly captured, so sad that you don't have real Bobby anymore, I didn't realise that when I commented on your FB pic. Pets are so precious and that's a lovely little memento. Shaz x
