More Pin Tins

I know that Fiona is very distressed that the blogs have been few and far between.  I have been busily stitching and teaching and there is no excuse for not busily blogging.

I am on a mission to design  a stumpwork top for each of the small ‘Sajou‘ pin tins.  I showed you the violet design on a previous blog and I have now completed a beautiful little toadstools.  I will put this on the web site as the next free design.  I will let you know when it is up.

I have also worked an acorn version.  Acorns are definitely my passion at the moment!

Lyn in my ‘Stumpwork as a Competitive Sport’ class has also completed two beautiful tins.  I have a few more in construction including a beautiful little needle-lace basket of apples.  ‘Sajou‘ now have a larger size tin as well so I will have more to play with!  Do visit their website  to see all the beautiful needlework supplies, visit www.sajou.fr.  To buy the pin tins visit www.bustleandbows.com.au.

    This are amazing. I absolutley adore the toadstools - they really appeal to my fairy sensibilities. Gorgeous work.

    Hi Jan,

    I’m sorry I missed you here in the US. I’ve been writing on my blog and I seem to be mentioning your name often. You are a great teacher and your love for needlework is inspiring.

    Smiles,

    Hi Jan,

    Love the cupcakes and tins. Life has been a tad busy and have not made contact for some time. Will visit B&B’s to ascertain if I could manage a cupcake or two (Gluten free, of course)

    Much love,
