RECYCLED RABBITS

Stitched up a fresh batch of spring bunnies, using vintage fabrics. Added a little embroidery here and there, and voila recycled rabbits! Here's a sampling...

Faded pink bark cloth with pearl cotton embroidery.

Seed sack rabbit.

Actually, these aren't the only rabbits I've "recycled." Two years ago, Nigel gifted me with these...

Petey, Pip, and Pinky

It isn't recommended that you try to save them. Apparently, it almost never works. These must have been just old enough. They survived and thrived, and three weeks later, we released them into our little woods, which is something of a rabbit sanctuary anyway. If you find a nest, please leave them be, their mother has not abandoned them. She only comes at night to nurse them, so as not to attract predators. 

And finally, just outside my front door today, the first daffodil!!!

Hope you're seeing signs of spring where you are!

Wednesday: Random Stitchy Stuff (Every Needle Tells a Story)

In a push to get ready for the holidays, and finally stock my etsy shop, I am doing a major studio cleanup. Here is a small sampling of needlework that I am sorting and finishing...

Spring had awakened a longing for adventure which she hoped was real, and not a false  sense of bravado brought on by a new dress and the seductive qualities of polka dots...

In the interest of full disclosure...I attempted this same cleanup last holiday season, and never quite got there.

Hope your workspace is neat and tidy!

What I Made On Wednesday

This little quilt is dedicated to the "Fly Tribe," a very talented group of artists who offer support and encouragement everyday. The first in a series of "what if's" dedicated to this amazingly supportive clan of women...

Hope your Wednesday was amazing, or at least pretty good.
