Bargello Scissor Case & You Made my Day Award




This is a little scissor case that I made a long time ago and for some reason forgot to include on my blog. I love bargello and this was my first one. The threads used were Watercolours by Caron.

Whenever I do bargello the time flies as it has that hypnoptic feeling, going up and down, up and down and that feeling is increased when you use threads that have multiple colors in them.

I have been chatting a lot about stumpwork recently and that made me think of Celeste who is also an EGA CyberStitchers. She has done quite a bit of stumpwork (actually she says that this is one of the thing that she loves the best doing) as well as wonderful embroidery projects. Many of her projects come from the Australian magazine called Inspirations, one of my very favorite magazine.

I have all the issues and have done a few of their projects (I wish there were more hours in the day), but Celeste has really done many as you will be able to see when you go visit her photo album.


I would like today to give Celeste the "You Made my Day Award" because she is such a wonderful stitcher and I enjoy visiting her photo album so much. She is a real source of inspiration to so many of us. Enjoy!
