Hello all from a warm and sunny North Carolina~~
Hoping everyone is getting used to their "spring-fever" symptoms..
I know it has been crazy warm here...Just wondering if it will last...
Wanted to show you a little bit of what I've been up to last week and weekend.....
Stepping out of the box and tried my hand at some wool applique...
Addictive!!
This was a kit I bought at the Quilt Show in Sanford back in January....Auntie Ju's Quilt Shoppe was one of the most popular and well stocked vendors there.... Its taken this long to work my nerve up to try it.....It sure was fun and much quicker than cross stitching..... Now, I want to do another!
I have been finishing quite a few orders for customers....It is really fun to get to see everyone's different styles and themes in our world of stitching...I have finished everything from ornaments to prim pinpillows to small pouches ....I particularly fell in love with this one....And, the owner was tickled pink~~
You will recognize this as the "Sew a Brown Bunny" of istitch....I couldn't help but vision it as a primish pouch...That mini-check in the brown just made the bunny hop~~~
So, with all these springtime bunnies hopping around, I guess I have officially set my sights on spring!!
Have a great week everyone~~

Your applique is great. And I love your inspited Brown Bunny finish. Every detail is perfect!
So cute. Like them both.
The bunnies and pouch are great. I would be interested in getting some info from you on your finishing.

Thanks, Linda
Glad you are enjoying wool applique. The bunnies are perfect addition for spring and Easter.
What a beautiful finish on the brown bunny pouch. And I love your applique work.
What a sweet little mat! I've wanted to try wool applique. I am pretty much afraid to try because I have such an addictive hobby personality! LOL Great job on the pouch--it's adorable!
Very cute bunnies - well done! And the pouch is just beautiful.
Those applicated bunnies are sooooo cute - with the flower wreth around their necks!!!
I also love your finish of the "Sew a brown bunny" - simply perfect!

The felt applique is wonderful. I love penny rugs and want to do some of them.
Your finishing is wonderful. I love that pouch.
Love that pouch : )
Go Faye!! Love the finishes!! Bunnies hopping always give us Spring fever.
Girl, you are just too much! That bunny applique is SO precious - and the pouch is perfect! So spring like - and now it is spring. Those bunnies will be hopping for sure, so "Hoppy" stitching to you!
Both bunny finishes are so pretty and spring-y. Happy first day of spring, by the way! Easter will be here before we know it.
Hello
I love the mat it's gorgeous.
The pouch is lovely too.
Happy stitching.
Aww... I just love bunnies and those are two of the cutest finishes around, Faye :) It's so warm up here, too, and we love it--it feels more like our normal May weather!
Enjoy your week :)
I love your applique! So cute! I want to try wool applique sometime too. Love the finish you made for your customer/friend too! (I assume she's a friend!) Love bunnies!
I'm loving all the bunnies! That pouch is too cute. We are loving this wonderful weather here in WV. All the pear trees are in bloom and so pretty. Happy Spring.
Faye, your wool applique is lovely! I also want to try applique, in addition to punchneedle, rug hooking, quilting, etc. etc. The little zippered bag is too, too cute! Love the idea of transforming cross projects into items we can use everyday. Your finishings are always fabulous!
Good for you! Sweet, sweet, sweet!:)
Your bunnies look great! And that pouch is a fabulous finish for that sweet little design.
Darling bunny finishes Faye!!!
Love those little bunnies! You did a fantastic job with the applique!
Love your brown bunny pouch. I just finished stitching this one too but am planning a pillow finish.
Your applique bunnies and your prim bunny pouch are very cute.
Faye,
I love the wool applique! It's gorgeous. Do you have a link to that particular kit?
Great finish. You should post pictures of the butterfly pouches you made for me that I use all the time. They are so pretty and the butterfly charm you put on the big one is perfect! Definitely an amazing finish on that one above!

LOVE your wool applique. Where do you get your wool? Would love a source for my rug hooking. Keep keeping me inspired!
I have a couple of these candle mat kits but have not started them yet...so they are easy? Your finishing and the pouches are so cute...you do good work. Can't wait to see your drum finishes. Lucky you with the items you received...to bad you didn't hit that mega millions that so many states had up for grabs!
