My Valentine Greeting



Valentine Wishes
from Anny


Hello Dear Friends and Neighbors, Being tomorrow is Valentines Day I thought I would post a wish for all of you. May you day be very special and full of great happiness.

Anny is here to send lots of sunshine wishes too. I made this little sweety for a gift shop and she was one of the first to sell. Anny stands about ten inches tall, made from tea dyed muslin, hand painted, dressed in country cottons. At one time she was to become a pattern but like so many of you there is just not enough hours in a day to create all my ideas and dreams. So for now she will just smile at you.
Valentin Wishes to all.
Len

The Happy Bear

Hi Friends and Neighbors:

How cute is this ittle bear? He was made while living in Oregon. At that time our home was near the Umpqua River in Winchester close to the college. I loved living in Oregon and miss it and my
home.
While living in Oregon I made a lot of bears and though it would be fun to show you one of
my little guys. Happy was my first bear and as you can see he has button eyes, and hearts for the pads on his feet a little trade mark to Id my bears.

Don't forget to check out The Old Stitchin Hole.

Warm bear hugs, Len

Pin Keepers A Simple and Fun Project


Hi Friends and Neighbors,

Thought I would share a fun and simple pinkeeper project with all of you.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words so I am posting one for all of
you to see my project that I made a few days ago.

Simple cut out circles, squares and hearts in three different size's,(don't for get a seam allowance) Use
a small stitch length setting on your sewing machine, stitch around, leaving an
opening for stuffing. Turn right side out, stuff with wool scraps, left over
cuttings from wool yarn project and of course you can always use Fiber fill
or any kind of filling you wish.

Have fun and enjoy.
