Party Cakes.....


It's been awhile - there's been a lot going on here and it's not good.  I'll post more about it soon. 

I just wanted to share my latest finish (as of last night) with you.  This is "Party Cakes" by Country Cottage - with both colors changes and as you can see, I changed it from "Cakes Cakes Cakes" to "Eat More Cake" - that suits me better.  :-)  I used a darker brown (WDW Kris's Bon Bon) & switched out the Crescents for Gentle Arts threads.  I think it's very cute and this is my own "birthday cake" to myself.  ;-)

(not the greatest picture - I haven't even ironed it yet, it's just laying on a table for the pic!)

Thanks for stopping by.... I'll be back soon.....

Happy stitching & sewing!

    Nice finish it would not be uniquely your own if you didn't change the colours. Happy Birthday.

    That is what life should be about! Eat more cake! Skinny people wish they had, and the rest of us are glad we did! We all end up at the same place. Hugs, Amy!
