Madame Cottontail & Lonestar Mercantile~

Greetings friends & stitching pals~


... I recently finished my 3rd Madame Cottontail and the fun just never seems to stop! You guys love this design, as I do...... Between finishing lots of springtime goodies, needing wool and having a ginormous case of Spring Fever, I had a spur of the moment run up to Lonestar Mercantile.... For supplies and eye candy.....

Here's today's picture walk~

And on to more sights at my favorite place in the world~ (no, they pay me no endorsements.... No, they don't have me in their payroll....wish I lived a little closer to the....
I just LOVE this place for inspiration, heavenly sights & smells and wonderful supplies of wools, fabrics and antique buttons....)

Thank you so much for sharing. Because of your post, I had to contact Lisa at Lonestar Mercantile and place another order, eventhough I had placed an order from her already this week lol! I would so love to visit her shop in person. Maybe someday...
