I love Lucky Nekos too! :D Anyway, I wanted to email you, but my computer us being silly. I wanted to let you know that Sublime Stitching http://www.sublimestitching.com/ has some wonderful patterns and super easy how-to instructions for beginning embroidery. They have some awesome kits to start with too. :D I am a self-taught satin stitcher, but I learned all other stitches from Jenny Hart's books, I have some if you would like to borrow them! Here is a group on Flickr that has lots of vintage patterns that I think you would like too. http://www.flickr.com/groups/hooplove/
I love all your creations! One of these days I will have to learn to use a sewing machine..lol..I only hand sew. I love the apron and the quilting you have been doing! I also love the Clara Bow creation! I was a flapper in a past life too. ;) I did a hand embroidered Louise Brooks once. :)
Anyhoo, take care and yes! Hopefully we can meet someday.
Hi! I'm Erin Fosmire and I like reading, sewing leopard print stuff, beach walking, quilting, and knitting in Pismo Beach, California. I'm currently life sidekicking with my husband Luke and living with our three cats, two dogs, and one small human.
