A quick note to my sweet customers who have stitched more than one pattern. You can easily group the patterns together on a wall or a shelf for maximum impact.  If you're an embroidery fan interested in learning to cross stitch, check out my stitching tutorial:  Ombre Hearts        Please visit the shop to view more of my for sale patterns and freebies.     Happy Stitching! xx ~ Jilly 

Counting My Blessings

Image
Tidying my tiny home while listening to Frank Sinatra. Faux leopard-print. Pink Roses. Vintage crystal vases found at thrift shops. Minimalism. My mother's vintage Chinoiserie secretary. Twinkle lights all year long.  Morning prayer. The mercy of God. The gift of faith. The humility of Mary.  The "little way" of Thérèse of Lisieux.   Morning tea in vintage teapots. Seashells Good Books  Roses in mint julep cups. Candlelight A roof over my head.  My rescued beagle, Ellie.   A Creative Nook  My generous Aunt who gave me a beautiful white French china set. A tiny kitchen to prepare simple and fresh food.  Cross stitching on white linen.  Silk Thread. Vintage Pin Cushions, French "Heart" Scissors.    Beautiful Art Off season beaches. Violet-blue sky and sea. Living simply. Walking in nature. The wise Indian priest who encouraged me to always count my blessings.
