BEADS! Many thanks to Jo for hosting the People’s Choice Blog Hop! Oh man, I had no witches to show you last month, I don’t think I even have one pattern with witches on it! But beads I have in spades! I love designs that use some beads to add sparkle, dimension, and interest to …
The People Choose…
Series of designs! Thank you, Jo for providing such an interesting theme to discuss! I enjoyed thinking on this topic, and look forward to others’ posts as well! Even though from my blog posts it may not seem like I don’t do much stitching of series, I certainly do a lot of collecting for it! …
The People Choose…
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 …
January FFOs. A last blast of Christmas cheer
I got busy in December and wasn’t able to join Rachel’s FFO Gallery with all my Christmas finishes like I’d hoped! And I’m just squeaking in this month too. In fact you’ll have to check back in later as I couldn’t get my photos in before the link up closed tonight! Anyway… I really owed …

Happy New Year! A 2021 Summary

Advent Blog Hop 2021
Welcome! It is the Serendipitous Stitching 2021 Advent Blog Hop! The theme this year is Christmas Trees! I was so happy to see that because I just love Christmas trees. My parents lived in Germany before I was born (actually I was born in Heidelberg and spent my first year there too) and collected many …
November 2021 Smalls Check In
It’s the penultimate Smalls check in of 2021! Here we are again friends! I finished the Mill Hill cupcake for my sister in law. I am definitely making this one again for me. I didn’t get to the monogram yet for that Sajou box. I wanted to keep working on the Bargello Roll. It’s getting …
Gifted Gorgeousness
I don’t usually do a Gifted Gorgeousness post, but it’s that time of year to start thinking about Christmas gifts and I have a few I want to stitch up for some special people in my family. I don’t think they read my blog (if you are a family member reading my blog stop now …
