So many pictures-----

Just a warning...pictures to follow....I have been busy!
First I finished Babouska as a free standing doll...

I think she is cute this way.
Next,

This is a freebie from Elisa. i stitched on28 ct Jobelan Blueberry and with Weeks Peoria Purple. The thread was sent to me from CalamityJr.....perfect match up. Now before you ask why the black box......

because for ages I have had a small piece of this Pansy on black print. I finally got to use it. Now for the box...remember the cigar boxes? This is one of them....I added a ribbon to hold the top open as it would open too far.

I decided to leave the name on the sides of the box. I added lavender pearl pins to the ric rack trim.....

 

a small pocket for scissors.....

I love the latch....quite decorative for a cigar box. I am really please with this project finish. I think I will get back to the wine store to see if they have any new boxes!

Remember the mail from Japan??????



Finally decided to order this kit. Maybe today I will start on it.

Time to have another cup of coffee. It was so nice to have you visit today.  I really hope you have a wonderful day. Be sure to save time for yourself.
