Favorite designer of 2020! Jo of Serendipitous Stitching has asked those of us linking up for People’s Choice to share the favorite designer we stitched in 2020. Friends, for me it just has to be The Drawn Thread! I stitched so much in 2020 but the piece I just really loved stitching the most was …
December 2020 FFOs
I’m linking up with Rachel the Ten Hour Stitcher for the last Fully Finished Object Gallery of 2020! I was not sure I could get any of my pieces FFO’d this month so anything counts as a triumph! First, of course I HAD to do my daughter’s rocking horse ornament. Here it is on the …
The People Choose
Stitching Disasters! I am linking up with Jo of Serendipitous Stitching for the final “Let the People Choose” of 2020. It is a tragi-comic theme this month…stitching disasters! I liked the questionnaire Jo included and it was fun to fill out. Stitching disasters are always horrifying in the moment, but for me, most of them …
FFO Gallery November 2020
I’m linking up with Rachel over at Ten Hour Stitcher again this month for her “Fully Finished Object” gallery.

Many thanks again to Rachel for hosting the monthly “Fully Finished Gallery!” It is an opportunity to show off fully finished stitches and provides great motivation every month to keep things out of the “drawer of shame.” (that special drawer or box we all have of stitched pieces that never get that final touch!) I …
Gifted Gorgeousness-May
Here is one final FFO for this month, double dipping with Jo’s Gifted Gorgeousness link up, a little present for my Sister-In-Law! Ta dah! She loves gnomes and when I saw this little guy I knew I had to make it up for her. It is just one of those little kits by Janlynn. I …
FFO Gallery-May
I have a some small finishes to share for Rachel’s Fully Finished Object Gallery this month. First I finished up the JBW Spring Bouquet needlebook. See why I wanted to get this one?
