I was cruising around the blogs I like to read the other day when I happened by Wendy's, she had posted a photo of the loveliest pin cushion that she had hand embroidered; it depicted a basket of strawberries and I was smitten with the design! I commented on her blog that I'd love to know the name of the designer and where I could find the pattern, she promptly E-mailed me a response and even suggested a likely place to check to find the book. I was on a mission to find this now, my head was swimming with ideas of where and how I could use such a pattern. I did an online search and found the book, "The Red Book" by Diane Arthurs. Hmmm... it looked suspiciously familiar. Did I already HAVE the book, was it possible? Yep, you guessed it! It was in a bin with
my embroidery supplies and patterns, a long-ago gift from none other than Quiltkeemosabe! Is she just the bestest friend or what? She knows what I need even before I do! The pattern was quickly located within the book, it's so sweet, there are lots of others I can use, too; even more strawberries! This whole episode got me to thinking... what else do I have in inventory that I might not even remember? Well, let's not even go there, I'm happy with what I did find and I'm trying not to over-analyze my lack of control over inventory! I'm thankful to have enough projects to keep me busy for a lifetime and friends to point me in the right direction... what more could I possibly need?Floss, that's it, I need embroidery floss...
...no, wait, I might already have some!
Life is Good!☺
