Last December I received a wonderful gift from Melissa as part of a Birthday Exchange. One of the items that she included was a fantastic pattern/kit to make this sewing case...
Designer: Stacy Nash
Design: Blue Sewing Roll
I completed this a few months ago but am just now getting around to posting pictures. I love how it turned out, and it was such a quick stitch!
Stitched and grunged for that Primitive look
Saturday was a great mail day...no bills, just a Connecting Threads and Knit Picks Catalog as well as a "mystery" package. I had a suspicion that it may be my HOE Summer Exchange and was anxious to learn who stitched for me. When I opened it I saw an adorable pillow created by Linda O...
2013 HOE Summer

Here is a close up. I love the little SB "Meadow Daisy" button...
The polka dot fabric she selected is perfect for this design. Thank you so much Linda, awesome exchange!
Why Do I Love Vermont ???
Ben & Jerry's...of course!
With my very special favorite :D house guest, Colleen, I drove 100 miles to Waterbury, VT for an ice cream ~ a delicious Ben and Jerry's ice cream!
When an ice cream flavor is "retired"....
When an ice cream flavor is "retired"....
It gets a headstone in the graveyard...
Now that's a clever idea.
Thanks for stopping by...Have a great day!
Until next time...

I love the sewing case and the pillow. I love to sew little projects like this but I don't have a lot of time! I usually find the most time to sew when I am waiting in the office of my dentist in Oakville. I love ice cream too, and I have even been to Vermont, but we didn't go to Ben and Jerry's, we will have to hit that next time. Thanks for the fun post!
Love your sweet little sewing pocket! CUTE!
And Ben and Jerry's!!! Why myself and my darling daughters are BIG FANS!!! Chocolate Fudge Brownie (absolute fav of mine), while the girls enjoy Red Velvet Cake. But about two weeks ago I tried Willy Nelson's Peach Cobbler....OMGosh...so very delicious and I'm nutty about peaches and Ben and Jerry did it again with that flavor! :)
Adorable finish Marie!
I LOVE B&Js :) Yum!
I got to visit B&J's last October - so much fun, Stowe is a lovely place. It was so hard to decide on a flavor to get though! That company has a good sense of humor....something that is definitely lacking where I work! I once had a director who told us "we're not here to have any fun". No kidding!
Love your new finish and gift exchange!
beautiful views.... love all your pics
I just discovered your blog. What a great post. I looked back a bit, very, very nice. http://astitchersstory.blogspot.com/
