I've been working away on a new booklet, French Folio, and it's been really refreshing to stitch with such colorful threads on colorless-wintry days. We have rain moving in so before all the sunlight disappears, I took a photo of one of the designs in progress. The scissor fob is an Ann Fuller clown doll. Do you remember those pretties? I don't think you'll find them anymore unless you search ebay perhaps. My Mom sold the collection in her needlework shop and they were quite popular back then. It matched my project perfectly!

If you give Zack a paintbrush, chances are he'll want to paint all afternoon. Yesterday he enjoyed painting wooden suncatchers; this is one he did for me. It's almost hypnotic watching it twirl in the window.

Hey, Tanya. I bet my 5 y.o. would love to paint sun-catchers. I haven't seen the 'nesting' kind like the one in your window before. Zack did a beautiful job, by the way. :) Could you let me know where you found these, please?
Have a great weekend.

The sun catcher is beautiful!
I am really excited about your Paris booklet!!
LOVE Z's suncatcher
I love suncatchers. I was walking through a very old antique store, The Martin House formerly, near Helen and they had lovely stained glass and sun catchers in the big, old windows. They are beautiful!
