Interspersed with the finishing I’ve just shown, I’ve been stitching along on my planned projects this month. I’m right in the middle of them. Here is last weekend’s work on the Drawn Thread Sampler of Stitches:

And this weekend’s work so far on Betsy Morgan’s Spanish Etui :

Interestingly enough, the dark red in both of these is the same…Rosewood by Gloriana.

I’m loving all the satin stitch and other interesting stitches in these as well as the bold colors. Hopefully I’ll get them a little further along by the end of the month!
