Further Proof of My Obsession...
and the Obsession Check List

This is my bedroom door, which I adore to no end!!! And its not going anywhere for a long time cause that fabric is glued and stapled to the actual door!

The world's best birthday gift made for me by my friend Aly!

This is one of my projects...it takes a LONG time to cross stitch that entire poem!

One of my favorite projects! I made this applique quilt of the banners of Gondor, Rohan, and Dol Amroth (added a ring for Mordor cause I needed a fourth). They look a bit different from the movie ones, but keep in mind I made this before they were out, so I kinda had to go with my own imagination.

This is my favorite project yet! I love this purse!! The two vertical sides have ivy print with LOTR going down the center of it. You can't see it. There is a really neat strap. and velcro inside to keep it shut. Plus it has lining and batting between the layers so it keeps its shape just like a purse you would buy at the store!
