Tiny Little Stitched Houses

Stephanie has just posted lots and lots of photos of some of Squiggee's tiny 3-d houses. Her SWAN stitching group has been working a lot of these lately.  They are charmers!

Squiggee isn't the only needlepoint company to do these 3-D houses.  Susan Roberts has some wonderful buildings.

So does dede Odgen, although I think hers are larger.  They certainly are very detailed!

Know of another designer who does 3-D buildings?  Add their name in Comments below or send me a quick email at chillyhollowathotmaildotcom and I'll update this list for you.  After all, the architect in us needs to build a house with needle and thread!

Nothing Screams Easter Like Sugar Eggs

Nothing says Easter to me more than sugar eggs.  We had these as children, covered in colored sugar and icing and edible if you didn't mind they'd been sitting out for a month.  Later on chocolate eggs became popular, which is understandable as they taste so much better.  Still, nothing beats a sugar egg for display!
