Second Blog, Second Post

LOL, don't worry -- the titles get better!

A couple pix, WIPs --


 
 
The second item is courtesy of Mary Corbet's fabulous and long-standing (for so many excellent reasons) Needle 'n' Thread blog.  Mary has a slew of free patterns, and since the Jacobean era has long been a favorite of mine, I was compelled to try this.  The background fabric is from Vikki Clayton's Hand-Dyed Fibers. The white fabric used for the flower is from my mother's stash.  We always used to send stuff back and forth...she loved to send me something "strange" and challenge me to do something with it!
 
More later.
 
Be imaginative! Be curious!  And I'll be back!

Second Blog, First Post!

Hi there!

Well, after 3+ years on hiatus from blogging and general public availability, I'm back.  I've moved a couple times, my grandson is four years old (my, how time flies!), and my mother passed in April of this year. But I've continued to be blessed with the grace notes of embellishment in my life, even during tough times (*grin*).  So I figured, since I've missed y'all, I'd best get back to what I do best -- sharing the beauty and the fun of creativity in all areas that I can manage!

If you're new and want to catch up, my previous blog, still in existence, is accessible at www.everembellished.blogspot.com. Enjoy!

In the mean time, stay tuned...

Be caring! Be creative! And, I'll be back!

Warmest regards from

P.S.  Please bear with me...I just did this much today, and there is still a LOT of tweaking to be done! Thanks for your patience.
