milagro heart


A sketch of a heart I am working on....

Milagro heart

As with most pieces, this is a work in progress....
The gold background fabric is a beautiful sparkly fabric called
"fairy frost". It is much prettier in person. Normally, I am
not one to use anything "sparkly" but, I really loved the color
and the name seemed magical and when
I held the fabric in my hands it made me
smile...

The inspiration for this heart is the darker background fabric.
It looks like little milagro hearts.

I noticed that most of what I am stitching these days has been darker
in color. I feel it is the Winter's influence over me...
Not a depressing thing or negative in any sense.
I am just drawn to "warmer" colors.



And this is a little something that makes me smile....
I love little black dolls, and I am making this one
just because it makes me happy!

This is my Spring inspiration!

I have rented this book again from the library for gardening
inspiration. I cannot say enough good things about it.
I love Barbara's sense of humor and the way
she educates the reader with valuable, sustainable
gardening ideas.
This is a book I would like to purchase to keep on hand.
