Preparing for Field Notes #roxysjournalofstitchery Vol 6 | Edith Holden cross stitch | Hey Seaville
I'm so excited to for the next installment of #roxysjournalofstitchery Volume 6 - Field Notes. It sounds like the perfect blend of stitching and journaling. Over the weekend I pulled out some things from my stash that I'll use as inspiration, including the following books:
- Wild Flowers Of Australia by Thistle Y. Harris
- Collecting Ladies: Ferdinand von Mueller and Women Botanical Artists by Penny Olsen
- The Country Diary Collection Book 19 Country Cross Stitch
Will you be joining in this volume?

Making a no sew journal from an Amity Bloom Provision Box #amitybloom #junkjournal | Hey Seaville
zhlédnutí 816Před 3 měsíci
Years ago I purchased a Provision Box from Nazy at Amity Bloom. It's been sitting in my drawer ever since because it's "too precious" to use. After looking through the box, I've been inspired to use the contents for a no sew journal. A place to keep all the precious pieces that will hopefully see the light of day. Hope you enjoy watching my process as I pull this journal together. Thanks for wa...
