Little bumble bee buttons and a whitework embroidery depicting a bee. At some point I will doubtless steal these bee themed ideas for my own creations. How I love them.
Pretty fabric designed in 1977. I love the stance of these birds, one serene and watching the other startled and about to fly. The thistle there I guess for Gibb's Scottish roots.
I hope our trip to the library tomorrow throws some more unexpected published magic my way.
I love the bumblebee stitch! It has so much detail!
ReplyDeleteThe countryside, nature - those birds, insects, bees and flowers make me feel quite peaceful!
I despise living in the suburbs :(
Good luck with your handiwork! x
