CAN YOU TELL I HAVE A "THING"?

























Two wonderful bloggers are sponsoring events today. Please go over to see Rhondi at Rose Colored Glasses for links to the Pillow Party participants (That's a lot of "p"s. Aren't you glad you weren't standing in front of me when I said that?) and go over to see Mary at Little Red House for links to mosaics. As always, thank you so much for coming to see me. laurie

    A pillow party- how fun!! I love the needlepoint- so appreciate this art. I made one needlepoint canvas and it took me forever! Thought I would recover all my dining chairs in needlepoint but after the first try at it----no way! Think I want all those tushes on that piece of art that took forever!!

    blessings

    Do you do needlepoint yourself or just collect it. (well, not "Just") I hope most of it was purchased or given to you, because if you made all of these things, or even most of them, I may take to my bed for a week!! Perhaps you can guess I have 10 thumbs when it comes to sewing, crafts, needlework, crochet, etc., etc., and so forth....and I am easily intimidated by talented people!!

    I love those things, but I just have no talent or patience for it. The skill set I have is focused in theater: acting, vocals, directing, and such. And a little writing on the side.... :)
