Where Oh where..........

Has this week gone, its Friday and I just don't know where Mon -Thurs has disappeared too.
Firstly and MOST IMPORTANTLY - I want to say THANKYOU to EVERYONE who commented and who visited my blog after I showed you my Elizabethan pocket, WOW I was blown away with all your lovely comments and thankyou too to the newcomers to my blog who left me comments as well, I'm glad that you enjoyed your visit!!

Well I promised another finish for you to see, this one I finished stitching a couple of years ago now, but never got around to finishing. Its 'Busy Bee Sewing Case' by With My Needle (Ellen Chester). Its stitched on 32ct linen and I as always changed the coulours and used the Kaalund silk threads I have to stitch this.

This is the front of the Sewing Case

This is the inside and I lined it with a bee patterned fabric which I liked as I thought it was warm and bright.

This is the back of the case. I found I only had 5 little tiny bees and I really needed about 3 more, but I don't think it looks like they are missing.

Sorry Nicki - I never got to the Post Office with your exchange (the P.O. has taken away our little village one this week and I have to go 3 miles for the nearest one (difficult distance for a non driver to walk) now I will get there this coming week I promise.


Hope that everyone has a great weekend.

What a sweet design and beautiful stitching as always! I think the amount of bees you have look fine. After all no two hives are exactly the same size, are they?!! Congratulations on another finish.

Su,It's beautiful. The thread colours against the blue fabric positively buzz :>)
I think the bees look perfect. Too many and you could have a swarm.
Your finishing is amazing. I love the inside too.
What a great shame about your post office. It's hard for everyone in the village to lose such an important service.
Warm hugs, Angela
