Fourth All That Glitters Plus More



The first picture is of my current project. When I was at Amy's, the Stitching Nuts, had these mesh cubes that they used as ort boxes. They had them in white. I thought this was a great idea - so I went to the Container store and bought five in pink. I decided to personalize mine and am doing my initial in pink with a darker pink border and the background will be done in Splendor in a very pale shade of green. Jen will finish it off for me and will attach the ribbon to the needlepoint and box. How cute is that? When it is finished, I will post a picture. It should be done this weekend since Jen is going to be making a baby bag for a baby shower and will be sewing anyway. I forgot to mention that Jen is a fantastic bag designer. She makes her own designs and then sews them. I have several that we have put needlepoint in.
The second picture is my fourth All That Glitters ornament. It went off to be finished about a week ago. Will post pictures of all three that are out for finishing when I get them back.

I can't wait to see your finished product. Looks like a lot of fun. By the way I noticed that one of your favorite shops is Next Station Needlepoint. It was my favorite and a frequent place to browse, buy and stitch when I lived in Stamford, CT. Seeing it on your blog brought back wonderful memories.

Happy Stitching,
