Time for Dots on Dots!

September 12, 2012

I love polka dots!! 


I love Dresden plates! 


And I have been loving hand stitching lately.


Putting all three together for the Dots on Dots Blog Hop was a no brainer for me. =) 

What has me stumped is what to make my block into? A pillow? A wall hanging? A tote bag? I'm still deciding. =) 

Make sure you hop around and see the rest of the Dots on Dots blocks today...



Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you will come back again!
