assiduous Apis mellifera

making a mess...
trim ... trim ... trim
because this...
 looks like i finished the cross-stitching in 1998 ... and then it was lost in the Great Pile of Stuff for eighteen years
was finally made into a pillow...
and the pillow sorta kinda goes with these... 
too bad there are no cookies in that cookie jar
how 'bout a closer look at that little picture...
Sweet Melissa

anywho... 
the red table complained a lot ow!!! you're scratching me!!! when i placed the cup on it, so those pinwheels and a bunch more and that bee and a bunch more are gonna grow up to be a table runner someday...

  1. You've been a buzy bee! Love the sweet grouping. My BIL and SIL are giving bee keeping a try this summer. I'm wishing them success (with hopes of OH honey at Christmas... does this sound greedy?).

  5. How'd I miss this? That's gonna bee a nice table runner. Love the pillow. Remember Jonathon Livingston Seagull....Erica Wilson? Not sure if it was her design but I started an embroidered pillow top with a JLS theme way back, early seventies, when I was a child bride. Most of it is done but the procrastination gene is strong in me and I never finished it. Soon, I tell myself. The sands are running faster and faster through the timer.....
