Hello, I hope all my American friends had a great Thanksgiving last week. We did. The kids and I made 3 pies (apple, pecan, pumpkin) and the rest of our feast was tip top as well. This is not Instagram worthy food photography but maybe you’d like to see it anyway… I did not finish …
September 2023 Smalls Check In
My Small for this month is a little Blackbird Designs project which I was lucky enough to spot in a destash group. It is an old class project that makes a little scissor box and pin cushion. Here is the stitching: The fabric is 28 count which seems very coarse compared to my other recent …

April 2023 Smalls Check In
I’m a little late today with creating the Smalls Check In! Sorry about that! I’ve been enjoying slowly getting back to my stitching this month. There’s just so much fun stuff to work on, I’ve been in a sort of chaos-unfocused mode! But I did make a start on one of my favorite Nashville releases…Stacy’s …
March 2023 Smalls Check In
For my little bitty small for March here is a pin cushion designed by Indigo Rose. I do love the specialty stitches in her designs and the use of variegated silk. I bought this kit second hand with the lovely little Nantucket basket. It took maybe 3 short stitching sessions and finished in a half …
