If you haven't heard, we had a new baby in the family and a lot of out of town family here to celebrate so I am a little behind on getting this gorgeous flower out to you. So, I choose the Peony not only because it is one of my favorite flowers with all its pink ruffly gorgeousness, but it represented what we all hope for in March...a little luck! I will be posting a You Tube Video shortly with a how to use floss to "paint" a flower so follow the Tweetle Dee You Tube Channel and watch for the video. To complete the flower I began straight Satin Stitching the darkest color onto petals and then added the medium pink and then the light for shading.

The first thing you will want to do is come up with a concept, whether it is baby moons or a fairy garden, or a woodland theme, you will want an idea of what you want theme you are going for before you head to your craft shop. You will also want string to hang it from the ceiling and also to hang your items from. For the Moon Mobile and the Woodland Mobile I used bakers string that I found in the scrapbook section of Hobby Lobby . If you want a string in the middle of your hoop to hang something from, cut a long length of string and add it to the four suspension strings when making the knot.

This past week I was so thrilled to be the keynote speaker and teacher at the USU Textile and Clothing Conference held at Thanksgiving Point. This is my second year teaching at this conference and I love it

Happy March friends. We have been waiting for this day for quite awhile now, so excited to share the Moonbeams & Cabin Dreams Block of the Month's first block! This collection was inspired by my Great Great Grandparent's stories on the plains of the Midwest as they traveled west on the Oregon Trail, served as missionaries to the homesteaders on the plains, and lived their lives in faith and love
