A little giveaway!

This month's block from Sylvia is so cute and thought to make one for a scissor fob but i got carried away and finished a few more. I would like to offer one or two for anyone who wants to have one of these fobs.


((all pictures can be enlarge))


Aside from these fobs and block, i have stitched a few smaller designs but will have to finish it off first and send out for birthday gifts before showing it off. I just don't have the inspiration to do the finishing i wanted like flatfold as i discover i haven't the right fabric color in my stash.

My only hydrangea is blooming so beautifully! I so love this color.

As you can see, the dog isn't happy..he was looking at the family leaving for a week vacation. I have to take care of him. It's been a while, i think last summer, when he last stayed here for a couple of weeks. It will be fine he'll just have to get use to our place.


Thank you all so much for visiting my blog and for taking the time to leave a comment. I really appreciate it and love reading them all.

Happy weekend to all!!

What a beautiful pup! I'm sure he'll be perking up very soon under your care.

Hannah, the pup we babysit, mopes a bit too when her mommy leaves her, but she sure does like the extra treats she gets while she is here.

Annie said...

Your fobs are so cute. But I'll pass on this contest and let some others get a taste of your beautiful work.

Please enter me in your giveaway for one of those gorgeous fobs. The dog is gorgeous too and I am sure he will soon settle down. Lovely flowers.

Katri said...

The fobs are lovely, please add me to the draw!

And your RR finish is so lovely!

I think the dog just misses his family, but will settle soon.

Years ago I took care of a very sweet dog (who got along with my then dog great) when her family travelled. The first day she was miserable. She wouldn't eat at all (my very picky dog, who normally wouldn't have eaten the kind of food she ate, kindly ate her food then too...) But the next day she was okay, and for the rest of the stay there were no problems.

CATHI said...

The fobs are beautiful, please enter me into the giveaway! The puppy is so cute! I am sure that he will be happy again as soon as his family comes back! :o)

So many beautiful scissor fob Mylenes, oh I wish I would have time to get carried away like that :) :) They are really cute and so is your SAL with all the months so far.

Your flowers are also wonderful. I really miss having flowers but without a garden or a balcony...


And I hope the dog gets used to staying with you for a while.

Have a nice Sunday!
