Another productive morning :)

Recently I was given a HUGE box of laces and some fabrics that belonged to my Aunt's mother. My Aunts Mother passed last year and she was a crafty lady :) I feel blessed to have some of her crafty items to use in my finishing :)And I can honestly say I will never have to buy lace again...YES it is that much lace-all sizes, colors and designs. I wanted to do something special for my Aunt and my 3 cousins...so I used some of the lace and fabrics that belonged to her to finish off these pillows. Even though she was not my grandmother-when I visited her with my cousins she ALWAYS treated me just as she did them and just like one of her own grandchildren :) I stitched the 3 for my cousins this morning and you already saw the one for my Aunt from Yesterday's post :)
I wanted to put as much of my Aunt's mother and my cousins grandmother as I could into each pillow. I used eyelet from her stash for the hanger as well as added it to the pillow. I also used fabric from her stash for finishing. These will be so well received...you would have to know my family though to know that. These will mean so very much to them. I can't wait until Wednesday evening at our Christmas GTG to give them their gifts :)
