Well here it is Pink Saturday, I am happy to be back participating in all the pretty Pinkness. I love it when Saturday rolls around, I get my coffee and laptop sit on my comfy sofa and just look at all the pretty Pinkness out there in blog land. I have seen so my beautiful treasures that my blog friends are sharing.
Well what I am posting on is my two Pillow Shams, I finally finished them,,, yeaaaaaaaaa!!!!! they turned out pretty well if I do say so myself. lol.
Now normally you are to use a red for this some of you might know it as Red Work, well I love Red Work but I decided to use a pink and brown. I think the colors are very nice together. On one sham is a Rose pattern, and the other is Daisy pattern. I wanted them to have a subtle difference but share the same color and theme such as flowers, does that make sense.....
Close up of the Rose's
And a close up of the daisy's. Daisy's are my very very favorite flower. I have lots of other flowers that I like, but these I really really love.... To quote Sheila; can you love a daisy......... why yes you can..... lol;
And for my last Pretty Pink I have this very pretty Pink tea cup and saucer. The flowers sort of look like Poinsettia flower. So it is so perfect for Christmas I had some tea in it on Christmas Eve, it was so nice, hubby made a fire and all was cozy. ahhhhhhhh. oh sorry I sort of went off the track here,,,,, lol I am back now. Oh yes and the tea cup an saucer photo..... hang on. I love this little sweet pink tea cup.
The saucer is just a pretty as the cup don't you think this is a very sweet tea cup..... I do.............. can you love a tea cup??????? hmmmm lets ask Sheila, so what do you think,,,,, can you???
Why of course you can... lol well I hope you all enjoyed my Pretty Pinkness. I have lots of great Christmas photos to share with all of my dear friends, but I will post them like a to be continued. So please keep stopping in so you can take a peek at my lovely and silly family.
I want to thank you all for stopping by to read about my life and family from day to day, the projects I am working on and things like that. It truly means the world to me, and when you leave a sweet comment that is the Cherry on top.... So thank you all and I hope each and every one of my Dear Friends a Blessed New Year.
God Bless;

Your pillow shams turned out so pretty! It was a great pink Saturday post, and I am looking forward to your Christmas photos.
You did a great job on the pillowcases. I have never really done this kind of stitching. I would love to. I should find a pattern of something I like and go for it. Right? Also love the teacup and saucer too.
Good job! Happy Pink Saturday!
The pillow shams are so elegant...I wish I had that kind of creativity.
Happy New year to you and your loved ones.
Ahh. May I just lie back on those wonderful pillows and sip a cup of tea from that pretty cup?
You can do it for me!
Love the brown and pink color theme. Have a wonderful pink Saturday and a great holiday week - Happy New Year.

You did a wonderful job with the pillow shams and I like that you created them with 'subtle' differences. I like that quilted bedcover also!

Your pillow shams are gorgeous! Daisy's are my favourite flowers too :-)
Embroidery wsas the first needle craft I remember my mom teaching me how to do. I wasn't very good at it--I could never get my stem stitches to look right (is that what you used for your stitchery?). I so appreciate the great job you did--it's not easy! Glad you enjoyed some Christmas Eve tea in that sweet cup and saucer! Hope you have a wonderful New Year! Dana
Your pillowcases came out beautiful. I love the needlework it's awesome.
