I just loved those; I think that is what started me on sewing and handwork. Embroidery is the first skill I learned.

We've had a nice January thaw here and finally much of the ice turned liquid and ran into creeks and reservoirs, but today, we're getting cold once again. There is green grass coming from under the snow. I can hardly believe it.<br /><br />I love embroidery too. When I was in 7th grade, I started embroidering on my jeans. I wish I had that pair of bell bottoms all embellished with a young girl's drawings and stitchings.Gumbo Lilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02747138637571716591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6044361545139026110.post-75395597709749223312014-01-26T15:10:10.240-08:002014-01-26T15:10:10.240-08:00This early blooming must get the fruit growers wor...This early blooming must get the fruit growers worried. You are right that the flowers needs the bees to pollinate the flowers.<br /><br />What a stressful year you are having. I think that stress also will make the trees blossom before their time. <br /><br />Do you have any idea when you are going to have your cataracts removed?<br /><br />It's good that you love sewing so much. I also learned to embroider when I was very young. I think it was how it was done in those days. Pillow cases were always embroidered. <br /><br />Take care and stay well.<br />Hugs,<br />JB<br /><br /><br />Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03423754263165266554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6044361545139026110.post-41821287852692238572014-01-26T13:32:00.668-08:002014-01-26T13:32:00.668-08:00Nothng blooming here Kim, I am so glad especially ...Nothng blooming here Kim, I am so glad especially that the blueberies are not,as we were driving in today, I reminded dh that our Bradford Pears would soon have a pink tint, and then in March they will blossom!
