But her seaside and flowery ones are a delight to see and I see no reason why stitched pieces couldnt be then glued onto the lampshades themselves to make life easier for less experienced stitchers? : )liniecathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15643986273499722414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5702531234034114184.post-82331688549645986942014-03-19T01:48:33.534-07:002014-03-19T01:48:33.534-07:00Love that your children are showing interest in cr...Love that your children are showing interest in craftyness, its like a affirmation of the stitching you do too.<br />That delightful snail needs to be made up surely?<br />Even socks stitched togther would make him become 'real'!!<br />Im visiting the Quilt Museum in York at Easter, want me to take afew close up pics of the log cabin, if they let us take piccies there? Im sure they do, when they exhibit at the big shows, we snap away happily then, so reckon the Museum itself may be the same.<br />Your so right about many of the currently new Brit mags, there are extracts from books or the makers blogs and its really disapointing.<br />Theres a plethora of crafty/recycling mags here at the moment and frankly, most of it is rehashed from the 1960s when we were doing the very same thing then!<br />Just its brighter, bolder colours now and not orange/yellow/browns and creams like back then!<br />If you like the lampshades I will send you a link for a Uk lass who embroiders a scene round hers with appliqued fabrics added. They are amazing but would be as easy to make and personalise for yourselves.<br />Shes on Fb so will get the link for you.<br /> liniecathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15643986273499722414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5702531234034114184.post-68639601657080105622014-03-18T12:44:01.956-07:002014-03-18T12:44:01.956-07:00What a fun trip!

I have to say I'm mostly disappointed, there seems to be very little original content in some. I've either seen it in books or on blogs! I would rather save my money for books though a good mag is a nice treat now and again. I haven't read that one. Funnily I get more out of some of the traditional ones because I like imagining modern takes on the projects!Lucy | Charm About Youhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14802874219199570853noreply@blogger.com
