Yes, I know there's nothing even remotely Oriental about Winnie the Pooh!! However, my daughter-in-love happens to like Pooh Bear AND her name is Winnie. Of course there had to be a 'Winnie' on her hussif, don't you think? She also likes tea, so the little tea pot and cups reflect that. (and yes, he is standing straight on the hussif!)
Today your quote is from Winston Churchill ... "It is a mistake to try to look too far ahead. The chain of destiny can only be grasped one link at a time."
This new hussif of yours is looking lovely. The addition of Winnie the Pooh adds a touch of whimsy. I love the teeny tiny teapot. Thanks for all the links, I must read them. I don't think we as stitchers, knitters and makers are ever really recompensed what we should be. Sometimes the pretties we create would be priced way out of people's reach. Sadly, 'tis the fact of a creator's life.
ReplyDeleteHello Mary Anne! Love your Winnie the Pooh... your daughter in love is going to love this gift made especially for her! :) x
ReplyDeletei've always loved Winnie the Pooh. when i was teaching, i used to make little Winnie the Pooh reading books for the kiddos that needed just a little extra help....along with Batman and Robin books. that was a very long time ago.
