What exquisite needlework! I'm gobsmacked that most of them are hand sewn. All those tiny teeny pieces!

I LOVE the little birdies on your Mums sweater! They're precious

Beautiful! My favorite is the flowers. If she doesn't want it, I'm first in line! LOL

They are all beautiful. She's very talented.

What a sweet and happy looking Mom you have! I absolutely love the 1st mini. So delicate. If it ever needs a home. . . . . . .

I don't do any hand work so I am extremely impressed with her work. All those little pieces takes a lotsa lotsa patience! All those flying geese would have driven me nuts! And I love flowers so the last little bouquet is very charming.

We all love your Daughter, she helps keep our families fed by asking us EARLY in the mornings what we are having for dinner most days. LOL

Have a safe trip home,
Linda/Oasis


Have Fun,

Your mom and her 30's repro fabrics are beautiful!
Someday I hope to make a mini.
Oh how I miss Florida. I wish it was closer to my home.

Dear Caren's Mom,
Oh, what lovely work you do, have you ever entered them in any contests? If you have I am sure you would win, they are really lovely. L.
Your embroidery work is beautiful, I also embrodiery, just love it. Sounds as if the ladies are in line wanting your work, maybe you should have an auction, ROF. You can certainly depend on the good taste of our angels to let you know how pretty your work is. L.

Caren's mom: those are absolutely amazing -- especially lovin' the scrappy Log Cabin.

Do you give as gifts, or keep these beauties for yourself?
