At the moment, I am reading "Laura Ingalls in the Big Woods"

and each sentence is a precious source of inspiration ...

The word "attic" has a very special meaning since it reminds me of my beloved grandparents

who lived in Burgondy and who took care of me 

when I was a little girl ...

Happy Stitching my friends !!!

Once again I got inspiration from Laura Ingalls's books ...

I read this sentence in "On the banks of Plum Creek"

and I got the idea of creating

a big pouch to store the slate that the 2 young sisters were sharing

as well as a little pouch to store  flat pillows representing animals and one syllable words such

as those you can read in the Mac Guffey's First eclectic Reader.

I also add a copybook cover with a cross stitched tag .. even if copybooks were not common at that time ...

Sold, thank you !

Thanks for stopping by !!!

I am sure all of you have scrap bags or else

in which you store tiny scraps of fabrics ...

I love those little scraps and

they are often very useful to decorate the back of a pillow

or stuck on a prim tag !!!

Enjoy stitching !!!

While reading this sentence, I couldn't help thinking of me as a little girl,

picking  flowers for my dear Mom ...

Maybe you would love to stitch it to celebrate Mother's Day
