MY POMEGRANATE JOURNEY BEGINS

                             
                                         My first little appliqued Pomegranate flower
Certainly not perfect, but this was my slow (V E R Y    S L O W   LOL) stitchery 
this Sunday.  Moi--doing applique in layers?? Bien sur....

 My good and intuitive friend MaryAnn came over at the last moment and sat and stitched and talked with me; we sipped some white wine and she finished the binding on her daughter's  table topper.  We took a tour of my sewing room and she did me a world of good. I gave her one of my bleeding heart plants and she promises me some astilbes....
Merci beaucoup mon amie....It has been a difficult time this week ....Mom is extremely weak
 and very tired....sleeping more than not.

AND SO IT GOES...

Hugs to all
Julierose, La blageuse (attend-euse)

    Your pomegranates are starting out well. So good to have a stitching pal.
    Sorry to hear about your Mom. She is quite old, isn't she?
