Also, Livy, can I be your friend? I really really need more friends who still play with doll houses and are not seven.

Pockets, Hoops
Since my first expedition into embroidery, I've been thinking a lot about what I would like to sew into other bits of cloth. So far, ideas have mostly involved acts of guerrilla embroidery that make me titter at the grocery store. Also, I'm really really excited about the teensy embroidery hoop I bought for Christine's swap hankie. I want to carry it around with me everywhere and sew birds onto things. These gorgeous images from A Field Journal have my fingers antsy for details, colored thread, spring.

I love embroidering and sewing! I love all the wonderful colors of thread!
I have a little tiny embroidery kit and I have been meaning to work with it forever. It's still in my to do basket.
Guerilla embroidery?
*swoon*
Have I told you lately that I love you?
I'm a cross stitch girl myself but these make me itch to learn some fancier moves with a needle and thread!
Oh, and I am waiting anxiously for retirement so that I can become one of those hobbyists who builds miniatures/doll houses in her dotage...
amazing colors. saving for some future bit of inspiration.
