It's better to remain silent....

I made up this sign....because I just love this quote....

he said so many wise statements!

What a wonderful man!

 

If you haven't seen the movie "Lincoln"...it is a good one.

My favorite part of it was how it showed how hard they worked to abolish slavery.....and how hard it was to go against the opposition.  I like daniel day lewis alot...but Tommy lee caught my attention.

 

Have a wonderful Monday...do one thing to make it special!

Freebie Friday- Life is good!

This is the third week of an 8 week all Summer long freebie friday event!!!! The theme is Inspiration!!!

Each Friday I will give you a design...like the "Life is good" design and by the end of 8 weeks you will have some beautiful Embroidery bowl fillers, pillow tucks, or ornaments. You could also use the designs to make other items like wearable pins or small pin cushions.

Take a scrap piece of muslin and trace the LIFE IS GOOD design onto it. I like using a disappearing marker....that disappears when water is applied to it. On my left sidebar is a tip on how to make a lightbox to trace embroidery designs.

Also trace the square around design. Back-stitch your word on muslin in any color you choose. Trim muslin design down....1/4" away from outside square. Remove disappearing marker and let dry. Make into a mini pillow...with a backing and stuff it. One bowl filler is done. These also make great pillow tucks on a shelf. Tell your friends about the all summer long freebie friday!!! The previous weeks were: Dream and Choose joy.

These lil pillows are very fast to whip up...so lets get started...I will post mine also....it would be GREAT to see yours too!!!!

Come join the friday flair party at...Whipperberry!!!!
