Our Daily Challenge 18-24 December : Stitching.

I made the first shadow box as a Christmas present for my mother, who taught me shell names like "cat's paw" and "lady slipper" as a child. (All shells were collected on Sanibel Island, Florida, over the course of 4 trips.) Now I've made 10 different "compositions" --all 5" x 7" in shadow boxes that look like museum specimen cases. Most of the shells are "mini" versions of a larger shell; a few are their normal size. This collection was a gift to a friend who loves cats -- hence, the four specimens of "cat's paw".

i took the action sampler on holiday to turkey. i took some photos. i then completely forgot about the exposed roll of film until i found it about three years later. the combination of the sampler's erratic nature and the old film made for some interesting results.
Its been over a year in the making, but I finally finished this project. I started the Rebecca Ringquist Dropcloth Sampler at an embroidery class at Fabric Nosherie last spring and finished it soon after. I finally made it into the pillow I'd been envisioning and finished it up over the weekend. I used shot cottons bought from Bon Bon Atilier; I'm a little sad that both shops I bought my supplies at have since closed.

Mixing my color scraps for the 'main' fabric and printed whites for my background fabric, I created a completely unique look and layout for Tula Pink's Modern Sampler.
