I have A Secret....


A Secret Garden....in this months issue of Homespun magazine Vol 12 no. 5 (Go Green Issue)!! Quite excited to receive my Homespun today, so I can now share with you my project in Homespun
A set of Jar Covers!!! I took these pics before I sent them off to Homespun...one set in greens

And another colour combination in pinks/blue.

I haven't taken any photos from inside the pages of Homespun, but I really loved how they were photographed!

My little secret now revealed! Lol!

I hope you enjoy the rest of your week, think I might be doing a bit of celebrating tonight!

Lisa

    Well done you. You can now say your published. They look lovely and I should make some I have a bit of a jar fetish. I find it very hard to through a jar away, one of the many strange things I do.

    Congratulations Lisa, they are so pretty. Love the ladybird. I will have to start stalking the mailman as Homespun seems to take extra long to get to WA. He knows now when it's due & I've heard it's hit the Eastern States. They will go on the 'to do' list for sure! Tracee xx

    Congratulations Lisa. Your gorgeous stitcheries that you have shared so far are up there with the best, so it is only fitting that you are now a published designer. I do hope my copy arrives this week or I will have to wait till the end of July to see it. Fingers crossed.

    Do you have a tutorial on your site? I am new to stitchery and would love to know what needles you use, how many strands of floss, and your stitching method. HELP!
