Treasury Challenge!

HHU Team and Friends of HHU have regular Treasury Challenges where team members' and others' items are featured.

Beautiful, creative treasuries are created with some of the fantastic finds and treasures to be found on etsy.

MarieGems created this stunning treasury recently ," Memorial Day,  Pray for Peace ".

Let's take a closer look at her choices.

We would like you to look at the shops she included in her treasury- you can click on the items and enter the individual shops featured.

In the comment box beneath the treasury, here on the blog please leave a comment telling us

     *       your favourite item included in the treasury

     *       tell us why it is your favourite

     *       if you want to choose a different item from a featured shop than that featured in the treasury please do so but tell us why you like the item.

What were our  favourites in the Treasury?

Fabricgreetings chose this pendant fom JewelsbyJakimi's shop

"I really like the definition pendants from JewelrybyJakemi..They just seem to reach out and touch a special spot of my soul. It is really hard to select a favorite, but sister one has special meaning "

"I think Robin's tote reflects the Memorial theme so well. The attention to details with the design of stripes, stars, and colors are amazing!"

"My favorite if from KPTography's shop. I think the use of the software designed for quilters to make this kaleidoscope effect is so cool. I love that the pattern is made up of the natural blues and greens of the wild bluebells in the original photo. I had a kaleidoscope as a child and loved daydreaming and making wonderful intricate patterns. This beautiful notecard reminds me of that time"

"I think I like this dainty little necklace best of the items in the treasury because of its simplicity." This is from onelifejewelry's shop

"I love these stitch markers from Jeanie B. Its a great way to remind me (even when I'm dropping stitches or battling a cat who thinks the yarn if for her) that I love to knit and love knitting for friends and family. "

Marie has some wonderful items in this Treasury and her use of colour- red,white and blue-is quite subtle and understated.

My favourite item here is
