Hmmmm....thinking of blue.....

The beautiful thing about the grey walls is that almost all colors will look great against...so I thought of blue..........what do you think? Help!

I forgot that I had this wreath (not finished of course) it's soft blue but it looks very nice with the grey or is it gray?

I think the blue needs to be softer.....or should it be lavender???

 Slip covers....they are going to be in white linen....

Next I'll show you soft pink......this is harder than I thought..........

The Dutchman is painting....

 I love the new color, we are going from brown to french grey....

The old and the new....

My curtain fabric..... and soon I'll reveal the finished room!
What do you think?
I would love an suggestion to a contrasting color or any other ideas!

My Needlebook....

Finally, I finished my Sue Spargo needlebook....it has been a long journey. Even though it has been many hours of stitching, weeks, months..... along the way it became a healing. If you have ever had the fortune to take a class from Sue you will understand what I mean. She inspires you and encourages you to try new stitches and create what you love. I always feel so calm and happy when I am stitching. It gives me time to reflect and time to think....which over the past year has been such a struggle....... each little stich has been a lifetime of healing........

Do you have something that inspires you, what gives you the most inner happiness when you are doing it? Do you knit, crochet, scrapbook, or stitch?

There are pockets for storing threads and little treasures...
A needlecase to hold my needles and a place for my scissors....... beautiful art from Michelle... my favourite "houses" tape from Anna....... my Needlewomen poem......
Now when I need to do some stitching everything will be right here, ready to take on a new challenge....... thank you Sue!
