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? It’s such a pretty thing! The finishing materials were included in the kit. The fob is a tiny version of the needlebook …
The People Choose…
Modern Samplers! For those just joining in, Let the People Choose is a Blog Hop organized by Jo of Serendipitous Stitching. Each month “The People” suggest a blog post theme, and we all do our best to show and tell for the theme. This month is one of my favorite themes so far, the Modern …
Easter Blog Hop 2020
What a strange Easter we will have this year. In my life I have never missed church on Easter and it will seem very odd indeed to watch Mass on TV, and, in fact, to participate in all the Triduum services virtually from home. Of course our stitching community is always virtual and that is …

March Fully Finished Gallery
It’s a framing month! I finally got around to ordering some frames for a few pieces that have been finished for a while and are deserving of proper display. Framing is always more time consuming and picky than I think it will be, but the results are always worth it. I just love seeing my …
Secret Stitching Sweetheart 2020!
Every year, Jo of Serendipitous Stitching organizes a virtual Valentine’s exchange called “Secret Stitching Sweethearts.” All the participants email a Valentine’s (love, hearts, friendship) themed stitched piece to Jo, and she emails one out to each of us to put on our blog. Then we hop around to find out who received our picture and …
January 2020 Fully Finished Gallery
My FFOs this month were supposed to be FFOs last month, but you know how it goes around the holidays! Anyway, I am so glad Rachel has decided to continue to host the FFO Gallery so that I can share these with you now! First is my Little Berry Thief Berry from Scattered Seed Samplers. …
Advent Calendar Day 23: TA DAH! A Big Happy Dance
In honor of Day 23 of Jo’s Advent Calendar, I present to you my completed Heirloom Nativity from The Victoria Sampler! Finished this morning at 7:23 am, I started it in November of 2016: This piece has been a joy to work on. It gave me almost no trouble. I used the floss packs from …
