Stitch Me Up

How many love to embroider ? Well this is your time to browse blogs in the Stitch Me Up blog hop brought to us by none other than our famous cheerleaders Madamm Samm and Jane  and you can start right here right now as this is my day and this is day two of the hop .
I love to embroider although time only permitted me to do one of the sweet designs that were given as part of our participation in the hop .It was not a hard decision as to which design I would choose as I fell in love with the cute little sketches by Mdm. Samm , just too cute so without further adieu here is my contribution to the Stitch me up Blog hop :-)

 Isn't she cute all dressed up in her little yellow dress and blue pinafore with yellow daisies embroidered all over . She is wearing matching yellow socks and a pretty blue bow in her curly frocks .

Susie Q as I would like to refer to her was a pleasure to embroider and color  using  my trusty crayons to add some depth to give her life .I plan on sending this to my granddaughter . I hope you enjoyed my little creation and I want to thank everyone for stopping by today and be sure to hop on over to the others on the list below to see what they have created for this fun little hop .
hugs Sheila
