Hearts and Bags
Here is heart #54. For CoHs members, the hearts are in my album now for swapping if you have seen something that you like.
These next two pics are bag fronts. I know what you are thinking..I missed that really big bit at the top! I have some really great loopy, wide, ribbon trim that I am hoping will look great on the front of the bags. Watch this space for a finished product, but not soon, I have other things that have to be done first. YES, art meme people, I talking about you...and the RR block that I need to get done before the next RR blocks turn up. So those are my goals for the week.
Took the kids up to the local pools this morning for an hour or so. Seeing as they have been swimming every day, I want to try and keep that going. I am planning on taking them for an hour after school 2 or 3 days a week, and I am going to try to get to aquasize inbetween meetings and workshops. *sigh* and so it all begins........

Hey Jo, your hearts are fantastically beautiful ! I am not as clever as you and I couldnt stitch if I wanted to, but love checking out your blog. I am a tree hugger and an apiarist - what a combination ! I live in the Waikato, do you sell your wares down here ?
I am just getting my blog, `Bees in the Antipodes` up and running, lots of fun and afew bad words floating around ..
Love the bag fronts Jo - very, very nice. I'm getting the urge to cq again - which is nice after such a long absence - thanks for the inspiration. Thanks also for the link to my new blog - scary stuff starting again...grin.
Hi Bees in the Antipodes. Hope you come back this way, would love to check out a local blog, but I can't find it anywhere. Can you post another comment, or email me (via my profile) with the URL.
Oh, Grrrr! I had a long comment almost finished, and blogger wiped it out. Here goes again!
I can always count on you to think of something unique and original. I love the heart and the brown bag. That chain stitch vine with the heart beads gives it a whole different look. However, the pink and green is just 100% fabulous. I like every stitch on there, but the feather vine and leaves the best.
I see you have a bit of tatting on there, and I liked seeing what you did with it. I'm a person who gets tunnel vision. =)
Susan, the pink and green really IS fabulous. The 'boysenberry' fabric spoke to me, and I had to use it, and I love green...
I think you will find a little of that tatting coming your way!! :)
Oh, I am just trying to use the some vintage photos that I printed on frabri, too! I finished the first photo heart yesterday and I am already working on the second one now. Very nice work, Jo!
C'est magnifique et sublime, bravo.
