GROW YOU BLOG PARTY

HELLO EVERYONE,

I am very excited to join with Vicki who is sponsoring "Grow Your Blog Party"  today at  "2 Bag Full" !! I am looking forward to exploring many lovely blogs. It is Truly Very Kind of Vicki to put forth so much time and effort to benefit us all.  Thank you Very Much Vicki.

A wee bit about myself.  I started CJ Stitching and Bloom back in July of 2007. I was encouraged by many crazy quilting friends so I could share with everyone my Stitching Creations.  I jumped in and have never looked back.  I have met so Many Very Wonderful and Kind Friends from around the world that has brighten my days and have blessed me in so many ways. I Cherish All My Blogging Friends.

I worked as a Registered Nurse for 36 years and retired in 2012. I have been stitching every since I can remember but in the 1990s I really became passionate about "My Creative Stitching".  Every quilt I have ever made has had lots of stitching on it.
 
In the last several years I have learned how to do "Wet and Needle Felting"! I absolutely Love Working with Hand-Dyed "Wools" and "Stitching and Beading" on them. I love adding lots of texture to My Creations by adding all kinds of "Fancy Threads and Textile Fibers".
Click on "Bavaria Winter Wonderland" to see more detailed photos of this art piece and the inspiration behind it. 

Below is another Favorite Stitchery I called,  "Dreaming Of Spring" which I worked on during one of our really Blustery, Very Cold Long Winters!!

And the last Favorite Creations I will share today is a Wet Felted Wool Easter Vessel I made last Spring. There is lots of beading and stitching on this Wool Vessel...

The Photo above is of My Dear Sweet Grand Daughter Chloe enjoying  her self with a Very Fancy Snow Lady that she made with her parents.  Chloe melts My Heart With her Lovely Smile.  When I first saw this Snow Lady I thought to Myself,  Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, I think My Grand Daughter Is Very Artistic, what do you all think????  In My Humble Opinion I think Chloe is a "Budding Artist" and that really pleases her Grandma!!
