Sunday and Menday

Hello. Just popping in to show you what I have been working on this week. I've been stitching away.
This little Sunday bear is so good. He's been saying his prayers...
















This little bear has been catching up on all of his mending....





















I have four of these dish towels done and have three more to go. I have been enjoying the last few weeks of summer vacation left. It has been such a relaxing summer and a MUCH needed break. Pretty soon school will be starting up for the kids and we'll be in that hustle and bustle mode with busy schedules. I hope you all have a nice weekend.

    Oh, what darling little dish towels. I love to embroider too and have done so many of these. I agree, needlework is a relaxing activity.

  5. Those little bears are just too sweet! I love the look of vintage style embroidery, it seems to be a lost art! You've done a beautiful job!

  7. Morning Anne!

    I am sorry that I have not been around for the last week or so. but I have my Mum staying with me at the moment and feel guilty if I don't give her my time and so haven't been on the computer much.

    Hope all is well with you.

    I will have so much catching up to do
    when Mum goes home that it will take me until Christmas
    to get through all the posts I have missed!

    Have a lovely weekend.

    What a cute Bear. Your dish towel reminds me of a very old dish towel. You do a nice job stitching them.

    1. Thanks Roxie for becoming a follower too! You have a really nice blog and I'm looking forward to many more visits to your blog. No I don't sell my projects and I'm just a beginner at embroidery but these cute iron on transfers make it perfect for a beginner. The towels are made to look vintage but are new. I love how these towels are turning out because of the vintage look. These look like something a woman might have gotten from her grandmother. =)

  15. Your Sunday and Menday towels are so pretty Anne. I used to embroider my owl tea towels too and after seeing yours I may have to do some more someday.
    I hope your Summer has been a joy and that you are well.
