Crowns and Royalty

Paris and Europeon Chic dictates royal images on pillows, towels, bags, and many other items. Take a stroll through your local home decor department and you'll be sure to notice items with the crown appeal. Adding a royal touch makes a person feel special. To me, it's not about acknowleding one particular queen, but celebrating our lives as women.


This pillow was purchased from Teresa Sheeley.
I was pleased to win this bag in a blog giveaway. Thank you Michele! Look at the royal items Michele offers at Sweet Yesterdays.

I keep my new bag hanging right by my coat and purse. It's filled with craft supplies and ready to go at a moment's notice!

Blessings to you all,

Ele

Sew much fun!

I picked white gladiolas from the garden yesterday. So pristine and gorgeous. I fear they will be the last of the season. I love how they look next to my "Lorena" pumpkin.



Still sewing away! Can you tell I really like making these banners (buntings, pennants)? I was drawn to fabric I spied in the store the other day. Fabrics in browns, blues, greens, and beiges add a Fall feel. The brown fabric with batik blue dots.....fun!






Adding seam binding and a few yoyos just looks right to me.
I couldn't resisit making buntings in pinks, aquas, cupcake and present themes. They are perfect for birthday parties, or baby's room.




I've also been sewing a few fun bags lately. I just couldn't resisit these bright colorful fabrics.
