I like to draw and usually see an idea somewhere on something and then draw my own pattern.

My sister cross stitches and just gives me things and says "Make something out of it". Sometimes it takes me a long time to figure out what that something will be.

The flower basket is a half log cabin square and it really was a happy accident. The flowers were me experimenting with varigated thread and applique.

Thank you all for the comments and inspiration! Rhonda
