I got busy in December and wasn’t able to join Rachel’s FFO Gallery with all my Christmas finishes like I’d hoped! And I’m just squeaking in this month too. In fact you’ll have to check back in later as I couldn’t get my photos in before the link up closed tonight! Anyway… I really owed …

Thanks to Rachel, I have been motivated to FFO a few more smalls this month! I already showed you my 2 Mill Hill Santas… And here is the snowflake all finished. This is Mill Hill’s “Ice Crystal” from the Snow Crystals series. I finish them very simply, the way my Grandma always did. I hot …
I’m continuing to make a lot of progress on Toccata 1! I have about 13 more motifs until I can’t do more without my thread order. One motif is all Queen stitch so that will take a whole stitching session but otherwise I’ve been doing about 5 motifs a day so I should arrive at …
I didn’t get my October FFOs posted in time for the deadline last month for Rachel’s Fully Finished Object Gallery, so I saved the post and added a few to it for November! Here are 2 months of FFOs! October: First I framed Let It Bee from The Drawn Thread. Cynthia made it easy on …
I concentrated on getting some FFOs this past weekend in honor of the August Check-in for the FFO gallery over at Ten Hour Stitcher. Thanks for hosting, Rachel, and for giving me the motivation to get some thing(s) done! First the easy one: the Blackbird Designs Quaker Strawberry from JCS Ornaments 2006. I finished it …

I have been working on 4 La-D-Da designs this past week. And because I have one more in my “Do in 2018” pile and another on the way, neither of which I can justify starting without a finish, I needed a La-D-Da-A-Thon! But lest you think I neglected the Just Nan birth record (Baby Celebration) …
I just couldn’t help myself. I had to start a few more projects! They all came out of my “do in 2018” pile and I figured if I don’t go ahead and get them started in 2018, they don’t even have any hope of being done in 2018! I’ve also been working on more finishing …
I’m linking up with Heather of Stitching Lotus for our monthly Smalls check in! I got all the beads on Star Santa, as perhaps you expected! Do you remember this Threedles design from a while ago? I found the beads I needed on clearance at JoAnn’s so I got that done too! So fancy! I …
Here in Arizona it is hot, hot, hot! The heat really saps my energy! And, with the kids’ summer activities, I don’t have blocks of time for stitching, alas! However I do snatch moments here and there on a variety of small projects. Little by little it adds up, and I realize have quite a …
