I had been planning to have a give away on my "Blogversary" which happens to be my birthday (Feb. 9th) and I was going to draw the winner on Larry's B-Day which happens to be Feb. 10th...but, my dear friend, Marcie, (she has a great give away, too!!!...go see!!!) told me about the OWOH (One World One Heart) event, I decided to jump on the magic carpet and go for a ride! Wheeeeeeeeee!!!
I just created this darling wee pin this past week...I wanted to have some hand sewing to work on while sitting in the living room with my Lar... as before the diagnosis, I was always working in my studio and only ventured out to cook dinner, eat, and then back to my studio! Things have changed!
I have her pictured here on top of an old book...she'd make a great journal cover......hmmmmmmm
Her body and wings are made out of an old cutter quilt..vintage trim adorns her head....the turquoise part of her body is hand painted canvas as is the "bar" that she hangs from...a vintage piece of lace dances down from the back.....a standard bar pin is sewed securely on the back of the bar (with the word "Cherish" on it)
Ok, now for the "rules"...to play..........you must leave a comment to be entered. To make it fun, complete this thought: Love is....
(its ok if people leave the same thought) but, remember, you must have a way for me to link back to you or send me your email should you be the winner! I will be choosing the winner on Feb. 15th. Please spread the word!
Heart Hugs,
Beautiful pin!

Love is--a lot of hard work. I know, my first thought was "Love is never having to say you're sorry". I'm dating my self, but the truth is LOVE takes a lot of work and sometimes there are tears and you DO have to say you are sorry, but it's worth it.
ReplyDeleteClara
P.S. Your darling would look great on my "Colleen tree". Sending prayers to you.
Hi Coleen! Love is bliss! Your giveaway is fabulous! I would love a chance to win your beautiful pin! Thanks so much for coming to visit! Lisa :)
