I did a little Doodle-Stitching with Aimee Ray tonight.  I have been wanting to embroider a few of Grandma’s pillowcases that we got when she passed away.  One of the reasons I like the plain white cases is because I have so many quilts that I couldn’t possibly have matching pillowcases for all of them.  Plus, matchy-matchy isn’t always my favorite.  So I grabbed Aimee Ray’s books for some inspiration and took over the couch.

 

Some sweet birds are my choice for pillowcase #1.  This design is from her book Doodle Stitching: The Motif Collection: 400+ Easy Embroidery Designs.  The other book I have of hers is Doodle Stitching: Fresh & Fun Embroidery for Beginners.  Both good books!

 

I made some good progress–tomorrow night I will probably finish it up.  (Baseball makes for a great night on the couch being lazy.  Go MN Twins!!!)

 

So much more to blog about!  Tony keeps asking if I shared about ___________  or ____________ or ____________.   Gotta get you all up to date on more of my domestic exploits.
