(Long time follower of your special blog here...you really inspire me to be a more feminine and godly homemaker! Only wish I could take some sewing lessons from you...) :-)
I have to admit to being a teeny bit envious of the inexhaustible supply of embroidered cloth your thrift shops yield. What industry there was in the past. I think you are right to leave some of it under glass. My favourite cushion has perished with use.
That's genius! I have a tray that has an embroidered insert which I found in a shop once and I really love it but, I've never thought of using framed embroidery as a tray. How fun!
It's lovely as a tray - why not? As long as the glass is strong enough. And, that GLH cookbook site looks right up your alley, Anna! I think you should choose a book and do it.
So pretty! Anna you always have an eye for photography!
I wanted to let you know that I was very inspired when you made this dress. http://pleasantviewschoolhouse.blogspot.com/2009/10/brown-linen-shirtwaist-butterick-5315.html
I just recently finished my version. You can hop over to my blog to check it out!
I am an evangelical Christian. I have three daughters whom I homeschool: Clara (16), Bella (14), and Daisy (7), and two older sons: Giles (20), a college graduate, and Felix (18), a college freshman. I'm 41 years old and happily married to my Dear Composer. We live in a 1920's school converted into a home, outside of town. And God is good.
Photography is an important part of life at my house. Photos that appear here are taken by Giles, by the Composer, and by me. Giles is a real, paid photographer, and he uses a Sony Alpha. Most of the photography prior to September 2008 is his. Since then I have done most of the shooting and I use a Konica Minolta. Additionally, the Composer offers me nice shots on occasion, often from his little Canon point and shoot. I've given up trying to note who's done what. Thanks for your interest!

Gorgeous! Now I have to add an embroidered tray to my endless list of projects to do!
