Where I Long to Be..........


Stitching by the Sea is complete! Is this not too darn cute???
I did change fiber and fabric colors to use items from my stash, but remained fairly true to the original. I added the "OC" at the top as a nod to my favorite "stitching by the sea" spot--Ocean City, MD. The adorable JABCO pins are on order and will finish it off nicely.

Here's an interior view of the basket. I did not used the called for wool felt, but found a nice cotton print that reminded me of waves to go inside.
Here's the bottoms of the pincushion and basket:
 
Thanks for stopping by and your "twisted threads" of friendship!
