This picture from an article on handmade expressions of affection gave me an idea for my thrifted goodies from my last post. I wanted to put some little daisies from my yard in it, but have to find one of those cute little tubes. This actually makes me think about when I was in high school and had a job working in my dad's lab washing test tubes, and doing other laboratory chores. (His lab was part of a medical clinic. It wasn't down in the basement of our home or anything like that!)
The strawberries are a project from the past, filled with lavender, tied onto vintage seam binding.

Thank you for stopping by my blog! I took a quick scan of yours and a few Flickr pics too. I am in complete and total AWE with your slip covers. I want so badly to have some made for both my sofa and love seat. I sew but have NEVER tackled something quite so grand! SO....maybe you could email your business info??...you may have a customer here!

I do that with magazines, too ecept sometimes I can't find them again when I'm ready to read them. I think I'm organized until something like that happens. . Now I'm off to find my Victoria , hmmmm now where did i put that?
Lovely to see where you inspiration took you--your project is delightful! Happy Days ((HUGS))
Oh, what fun when the snow flies, to curl up with a secreted magazine stash... and a little crafyt magic too. Craft stores have little plastic tubes, but where precisely does one lay hands on taller glass tubes? Surely there a science-y web site.
