So much goodness to share!!!!


First....this beautiful image is for you ~
I've given it to you before but to me....it is by far, the most wonderful
Mother's Day image EVER!!!!
I wanted to give it again
just in case you make your own cards....
or want to create artwork....


To save the LARGEST size of my images:

Right click on the image.
Left click "OPEN LINK IN NEW WINDOW"
Then....Left click the image AGAIN.....
you will now have the FULL SIZED IMAGE.
Now you can right click it to "save image as"
and save it to your own computer.





Lisa called me the other day
and told me about this new line coming in at Michael's!
I love all that is French General so I high-tailed it to my local store....
my budget was a little limited that day but I did come home with these!
You will just LOVE this line....






A few years ago I had the privilege of meeting sweet Fifi O'Neill when she came
to Georgia to shoot a friend of mine's home....




She was the editor of Romantic Country magazine at the time and
has also freelanced for so many other magazines too!

Well, this girl has OUTDONE herself!!!!
I picked up the recent issue of Romantic Prairie Style magazine this weekend.
Fifi is the editor and I just have to say ~
I LOVE IT!!!!!!!

It is FILLED to the brim with all the things we all love....
I just have to share a few peeks inside
but you have GOT to go get a copy,
I promise you will love it so much.













Here's a little look at what I'm up to in the studio....I'm such a nut.
If I have someone want one needle book, I have to cut out FIFTEEN!
What is wrong with me??
But I do have several different types this time...
even Americana ~





Plus, I've added a few new goodies to my Etsy shop!!!




A peat pot nest baby...the inspiration for my class at Paper Cowgirls!




Plus...this beautiful statuary piece ~ I love her so!
I have one for myself and found another
for you ~






Remember to spread kindness...it will always return to you ~

Wishing you a most beautiful Monday dear friends!!!!!


hugs and love,
Dawn

You know Dawn...one of the things I love about you the most is that you practice what you preach. You are one of the kindest souls in blogland! And I, for one, appreciate all that you do and all the kindness you spread.
I love your current projects... especially those darling little needle books. Thanks for the peek into the new magazine...I will be sure to look for it! :)

Very goodmorning Dawn, thank you so much for being my friend on facebook and for the babyshoes tutorial. The picture from the mom and her child are wonderful, thank you for sharing it. I love the French General but never seen it in the Netherlands. I also was looking for prairie style magazine but I think I can not buy it in the Netherlands, very sorry, It is breathtaking.
Like your beautiful cotton and lace . We celebrate Queensday in the Netherlands so today everyone has a day off. A lot of festivals and flea markets. Unfortunately, I continue to paint in the attic and then the decorating, I love it.

Hugs and have a nice day,
Ellen

Honey, I'm home!
I missed you! I'm done for awhile, except for building the sets for VBS in June. But that's good.
Can you believe I hauled that mag to KS & back & never cracked it open! It was non-stop laughing & talking the whole time! It is beautiful tho, maybe today when the kids leave.
Love what you've been up to. The sachets are very cool the way you did them. Talk to you soon.

Happy Monday, Dawn! I read on Fifi's blog about the magazine, although I haven't seen it yet. I'm going to have to look for it more aggressively, I think, because those pictures you show look great. You've been busy! I was busy yesterday making some things for my Etsy, too. Especially when I realized it's only two weeks away!

Sweet Old Vintage said...

Love the photo.. Beautiful...I will use it today...will look for the magazine.. I have her book that I pick up often... Still waiting for nice weather.... But am slowly getting the outdoor space ready for pleasing relaxation... as always love coming to read and share inspiration and special thoughts on your blog..

Such a beautiful post today Dawn,but then all you do is lovely...that's just you! :) I took a peek at that wonderful magazine at Walmart. It is very inspiring to say the least....I loved it! Thanks for sharing some of the pages so I could take another peek :) May you have a most blessed week dear friend.

marie said...

Thanks for your generosity Dawn...this image is so beautiful. Thaks for the peek into the magazine too...love that cheery, cherry kitchen!

Your needlebooks are so special...I love the one I purchased back when you first started making them. I'm interested in that pretty green one...will that go in your Etsy shop? : )

Vee said...

Gosh, you're a pretty lady. I really like some of those pages you've shared with us. I've just about given up on buying magazines as the budget squeaks and they're so expensive.

Sandy said...

Such loveliness here today! When I run errand tomorrow I am going to see if our bookstore has a copy of the magazine, must be something, there is much buzz about it. The needle books are lovely!

I sure wish I could get as much creating done as you are, my new shop is pitiful to say the least, just no time to work on listings right now.

Have a great week!

Michelle said...

Loving your little needle books! The magazine is definately on the list now. :)

Admire your seam binding bows. Don't know how to get them double like that. Write a tutorial for it?
