White Wednesday in the Workroom!



This is my very first...


White Wednesday Post!


I signed up last week at



and then... didn't have any thing to blog about!


So...this week


 as I was working on the


 Christmas collection,


I made sure



that the items I was doing in all



whites and creams



were far enough along that I could share them
with you!


 To Start with though,


These are some of my white pansies.


Because I did all white

for Autumn this year ...so are my pansies









I've been very busy this past week in my sewing room.


At one point...

There were actually 2 sewing machines going at the same time!

Here are just a couple of the pillows I've been working on.



This one is done in all white organdy!













This is a reclaimed white quilted pillow sham.
I embroidered with "Bonne Nuit"...
(good night in french! )
I have several more completed with all the usual verbage...

'Twas the Night before Christmas!

It's a wonderful life!

Merry Christmas to all...and to all a goodnight!

and many others! there just not in white!

So...I guess we will have to wait until the

to see the rest!

Hope you have a Wonderful Wednesday and rest of the Week!

Blessings...donna

P.S. I just realized...30 days from today until the long awaited Christmas Open House...How's that for putting a tad bit of stress on a person. Any whoo...Hope you enjoy this little sneak peak.

  1. Hi Donna! You are just soooo talented! I love those pillows, especially the "believe" pillow! Just gorgeous! How is your week going? Well, I guess with 2 sewing machines going at once, the answer must be...busy :)

  2. Donna,those cushions are just lovely. I especially like the small white pom pom trim. You are a clever, busy lady!
    And thanks for the pic of your pansy. We don't have any flowering gardens here due to water restrictions etc so appreciate anything we can get.

I have been preparing for Halloween but got some of my Christmas books and mags out last week...just love the holiday season!

  11. Your pillows are fabulous. Wow, what a talented gal you are. I shudder when I have to sit down and sew a straight line. I love the white on white theme; and speaking of, isn't WW just awesome. Love it! Have a great week!

  12. Hey Donna, Sorry, This give-away has been wonderful, just meeting and being in contact with so many great people, but whew, I've had a hard time keeping up! I need to make a "disclaimer" on my blog. "If you don't hear from me, I still love you, I've just had a Senior Moment, and I temporarily have forgotten where I am. HA HA!" Thanks for checking in with ME!
    Hugs and blessings,
    Debra
