I have FFOs for you! Autumn Splendor from With They Needle and Thread. I’m so happy I was able to finish it just like the model. I loved the model so much! The Botanical Bee from Hands on Design. I went with the yellow bee fabric. For one thing, this choice won the widest support …
April 2024 Smalls
I bet you knew I would make it! I finished a small for this month! This is called Flowers from Mary by La D Da. Of course I was delighted to have a little project with my name in the title of it. I love the quirky flower vase and the alphabet border. I love …
March 2022 FFOs
Many thanks again to Rachel for giving me a reason to FFO some pieces this month and share them with you! I finished up the Sugar Plum Fairy from Satsuma Street. The designer sent me a whole new bead packet and guess what? It’s a good thing I asked her about this because the packet …

SNOW! I’m linking up with Jo of Serendipitous Stitching, for her monthly People’s Choice blog and the theme for February is SNOW! Here in the Phoenix area, February is really the start of our spring so any thoughts of snow at the moment seem out of season! I know that is a foreign concept to …
Happy New Year! A 2021 Summary

August 2021 Smalls Check In
I was inspired this month to stitch up some very small smalls for the August SAL. They stitched up so quickly I didn’t have time for a progress picture so I saved them for you. First I did a little Shepherd’s Bush fob, I think it is called “Blooms.” It is very bright and cheery! …
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?

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 …
