Crayons are a really great way to enhance a stitched project...and they aren't as messy as fabric paint.Besides, who doesn't love to color!?
This project started out as a picture, then for reasons I can't explain it turned into a tooth fairy pillow!!
These things come to me in the dead of the night...
I had a lot of fun creating this. More to come!

Happy Easter !!!!
Compromise.
I have been married for 28 years...compromise is key. Even with the dogs!!
Ok, so I dress Oliver up in cute little shirts. He likes it!!
And well, maybe they were getting a bit sissy.
Sooooo, I found the baby a " West Coast Chopper " t shirt!
Compromise!!!
While I waited to pay...I HAD to get the baby blue bunny ears too!!!
It is Easter after all!!!

What's new in Craft-Opia!!
A couple of weeks ago I found some really awsome embroidered vintage linens at a flea market.
I tend to collect things like this the way I collect fabric...all I can say is when I'm gone there's going to be one crafty-crazy estate sale!!!
Anyway, one piece I bought just screamed to become a ring bearer pillow!!! It was just too perfect!
The backing had to be something special, so I used a piece of a silk crazy quilt.
This was such a simple little project, but it made me smile when I was finished !!
Oliver's doing great! My baby is growing up!!
He has some bunny ears for Easter...that is if I can convince him they need to stay on his head!

Good stuff...
I'm so happy to say that I'm writing this post on my NEW computer!!!!
Honestly, my old one deserves a place in a museum !!
The poor old thing was on it's last legs!!!
My beloved came home Friday with this new computer and my jaw dropped!
What a difference!!
On the artsy end, I had the best custom order4 last week.
Been working with a bride to be that wanted something for her wedding guest to place personal notes in rather than a guest book...
I came up with the idea of re-vamping a chafing dish.
It turned out really cute!!
It's nice working on something so wonderfully sweet and romantic!!!
