tea and thee…

Needle Thread Cloth‘s August challenge is Tea Time Stem Stitch…

I have been having lots of fun lately spreading plaster on linens and laces and distressing mirrors (thanks to special friends again and again)…

a bit of layering and machine stitching along with touches of hand embroidery (stem stitch and french knots) on vintage map and book papers (thank you Carmen Dyson)…

you have all month to stretch your creative muscles and join in the fun over at Needle Thread Cloth…
