Needlework pyramid?

Earlier today someone posted a link to a photo of a lovely needlework
pyramid, but I accidentally deleted it. If that talented stitcher would
repost the link, I would be most grateful.

will add a ladybug on the scissor band. I have an Ivory scrimshaw
measure and silk winder that have ladybugs(made from old piano keys), I
wish I could have won the scissors that were on ebay a few months ago
that were shaped like a lady bug.

I have finished the outside panels of Twisted Oaks "Honor Thy Needle"
Etui. These panels are stitched over 1 with Dinky Dyed Silks. I started
in January. I basted the bottoms and the pyramid pin cushion yesterday.

Donna also did a pyramid needlework ornament - it's kind of a crazy quilt
take - very pretty, I think it's in her RCTNP album.

The pyramid etui's are just lovely - I think CA Wells teaches one, and there
are some others around.

Thanks so much, Bobbie. I've been wondering what's next, and this just may
be it!

The Kit came with all the mat boards precut. The directions are very
clear, however the charts are "small". I had to enlarge them in order to
actually use them. I can share the leftover silks. I did substitute a
Thread Gatherer golden yellow in place of the Dinky Dyed Banksia yellow
as I had that in my stash at the time I was kitting it. I have ordered
from ABC Stitch Therapy and visited the store. Very high marks in
service. Don't tell Cheryl, but I have ordered a set of ladybug counting
pins made in Italy to add to my Etui.

Let me know if you want the silks, you really need only half a skein.

Bobbie V,

Remove the knot with a net to reply.

A book called 'Starting to stich Creatively , By valerie Cambell -
harding , B.T. Batsford, 1994 , has a chapter called Pansy bags ,
[page 36-] where she shows how to make triangular bags with woven torn
cloth + embroidery ,.

Gee - like I'm surprised by that ! LOL

Bobbie V,

Well, aren't you kind! The cost of the silks dissuaded me from ordering the
Pyramid, although I did order the Patchwork Garden Pincushion Ball and the
Hedgehog Baby. I will do those with DMC but I felt that something as special
as the Pyramid deserved silk. So, yes, I will take you up on your offer!

I will email you with my address, and if you give me a price and your
address, I will send you a check.

Thank you so much, Bobbie. I really look forward to this project.

Do you have a link or other information on the Hedgehog Baby?? I would be
very interested in seeing this.
