You all are hardly going to believe this, but at last I have a fully finished object to share with you! I don’t even remember the last time I finished something off! Here is my Acts of Goodness pin pillow from the new book, Moments of Glad Grace by Blackbird Designs. I guess I got the stitching done in March. […]
My blog has been down. I am sorry. I guess my service had a widespread failure. It seems to be working again. I just want to let you all know that Mary’s Thread goes on, and eventually I will post some new stitching for you!
Happy March! Here is Arizona it is coming in like a lion with an exceptionally windy day. I hope we don’t lose any trees! I am writing a quick post to let you all know I am taking a break for a little bit. I will still check in with an FFO mid month, and a Small for the end […]
Happy St. Valentine’s Day! It is time for the Secret Stitching Sweetheart blog hop hosted by dear Jo of Serendipitous Stitching! All the participants swap stitched Valentines and then hop around to find out who got theirs! My Secret Stitching Sweetheart sent me this lovely Valentine! She couldn’t have known it but I have a great affection for Sunbonnet Sue […]
Hello friends! It is time for the first Smalls Link Up of 2023! I can hardly believe it but here we are! Here is my (medium) small for this month, The Philanthropic Pumpkin from Hands on Design. I am looking forward to the finishing actually, it will be very very cute and I have some adorable pumpkin pins to stick […]
I felt like I needed to reinvigorate my stitching life. I had so many plans for September that didn’t work out. I think I stitched 2 tiny leaves? bushes? whatever on Bathya, but didn’t get further than that. Why? I don’t know! I don’t really carry Bathya around with me to work on because I feel like she’s too intense […]
My Fully Finished Object for the July Gallery is the Blue Flower Pindrum by La D Da. I did my best! It is stuffed with poly beads on the bottom for weight, sawdust for stiffness in the middle, and fiber fill on the top to be easy to stick the pins in. I have done enough pindrums now to learn […]
Continuing the banner month of FFO’s for Rachel’s FFO Gallery here are the Smalls I finished up this month. I bought a little Sudberry House pin cushion for Jeannette Douglas’ Fall Posey. I went with a twisted cord instead of the suggested chenille trim. I just couldn’t find a color I loved with it and pom poms were too “fun” […]
Well, this king took me much longer than I thought it would! Part of that was because it turned out that our vacation was one of those vacations when I just didn’t have any time to stitch. We had a good little getaway to San Diego and Carlsbad, CA. Highlights of the trip included the San Diego zoo, and Mission […]
Merry Christmas! With the last Friday of the month also being Christmas, I am late posting this! But maybe nobody is going to be fussing with blog updates today anyway! I have nothing new since my Advent Calendar post. This is my small finish for the month, Jeannette Douglas’ Cozy Into Winter. I didn’t have a chance to do anything […]
