Beekeeper's Cottage Etui

We must interrupt this regularly scheduled program for a news flash..... I got the smalls done!!!! Yea!!!! ( sorry for two posts in one day but I couldn't wait)! OMG and is it cute! I'll refresh your memories; this is Beekeeper's Cottage Etui by Carolyn Standing Webb. I showed the cottage the other day; I'll share the smalls now. Clockwise from upper left: Sunflower Pinkeep, Pansy Needlebook, Thimble Skep, Rose Tape Measure and Forget Me Not Scissors Fob. I stitched everything as called for but added a bee button to the skep and a bee "pull" to the tape measure. I  also did a different bee on the "how doth the busy bee" piece. This was a challenging project but I really loved every minute of it!

Backs and Inside

Oh, what the heck, here's the cottage again, where all these lovelies will reside!

 Thanks for letting me share my passion with you; I know I get inspired when I see other stitcher's work and hope you do too.
