With spring still a month or two away...I like to work on projects that are perky and fun to brighten the cold winter days. So to celebrate the coming spring-time, I have a new pattern called "Simple Things"!
With four separate embroidery patterns, you can use it as a quick block-of-the-month. Makes it easier to just throw the embroidery pattern you are working on in a bag and take with you on the go.
Since it's my newest pattern and I would love you to have a copy of "Simple Things"......Please leave me a comment here on the blog and I will draw 3 winners on Sunday February 20th!
Good luck to you and thanks for reading my blog!
