#32 from Boo Cartledge

#32 of 365.  I love this 4 x 6 piece.  You've got your embroidery, your Ray Johnson memorial bunny, and then the amazing coincidence of the flower on which the bee stands matching the pink flower embroidered -- what? 30, 40, 50, 60 years ago?  I've been buying vintage embroidered pieces for 20 or 30 years, none of which are new because I prefer the worn ones...   One of my favorites, I sent this one to Lucy Pritchett.

I LOVE IT! Can't get enough of when the stamps bleed into the background. Awesome


Brings back great memories of my mom teaching me to embroider designs like this on pillowcases when I was a little girl! Love it!

Thanks, Andy! I may intentionally see what stamps I have that I can get to bleed. This one was a happy, happy accident.

I knoooooow!! One of my all-time favorites. Thanks for the enthusiasm!

Hi, Paula! I just now saw your comment. Yep, I learned embroidery in the same way. It made me happy then, and it still does. : )
