October FFO Gallery
We were on fall break this past week* so I didn’t have a lot of time to finish things up, so I tried to get most of it done before we left. I also didn’t have too much recently stitched to FFO anyway. I made the Pensee Sauvage by Samplers Not Forgotten into a pillow …
Little Bubbles of Happiness
I know I said I wouldn’t start anything new this month. Then I found the cutest SAL and I had to join in. It is so little and sweet. It is called Bulles de Bonheur (Bubbles of Happiness) and is offered by a French designer, Pili Campoy on her blog Lin Pulsion. She says, we …
February Fully Finished Objects
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 …
Let the People Choose…Lizzie*Kate!
I am linking up with Serendipitous Jo to show you my People’s Choice for January…my one and only Lizzie*Kate! I discovered Lizzie*Kate the year she was retiring. I panicked since this had happened to me before, where I fall in love with a designer whose work is all OOP or something, so I instantly bought …

November (and October) FFOs
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 …
October Smalls SAL Check In
And just like that it’s the end of October! I realized on Monday that this week had the last Friday of the month in it. So I had to scramble to get something done! I just made it! Phew! I decided to pick up this neglected Mill Hill project, the Vintage Rose beaded pin pillow. …
FFOs for August
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 …
June’s Fully Finished Objects
At last! I have my Finishes ready to show you! I am linking up with Rachel of Ten Hour Stitcher whose SAL helps motivate us towards fully finished objects. You know I’ve been getting a lot of stitching in even though it’s summer break for the kids right now, but finishing is another matter since …
