I’m so proud to present my Joyful Wold from The Snowflower Diaries!! I started it in January 2017 and finished June 20, 2023. Actually I finished stitching the months in December 2019 and then put off the border for an embarrassing 2-3 years. But none of that matters now because it is totally done!!! I feel relieved to have such […]
I was very sick last week with something like the flu…it wasn’t Covid…but still I quarantined away from the family because we didn’t need more people coming down with the awful thing I had! The only upside was after the achiness left my hands (2 days I couldn’t stitch the aches were so bad!) I had some good stitching time. […]
I had a good weekend stitching Mary Amelia’s Bird. I went from here: To here: To here over 3 days. Not too bad! It is going quicker than I thought. I do not love stitching the 2 strands of DMC on the 36 to get the coverage I would like. It looks ok but not as neat. If had been […]
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! And I do love seeing […]
I put the last stitches in on “When This You See.” But not at the pool! I had just about 10 stitches left after my last pool session and couldn’t leave it like that for another day. So I finished it that night and now it’s done and added to my September finishing pile. Because it is mid month I […]
Welcome to the last Smalls Check In of 2019! I am so grateful to you faithful friends who continue to link up month after month! I have finished my Snowflower Diaries December! That means I have stitched all the months! I do plan to do the fancy border so the project will continue in 2020. Hopefully it will be a […]
It’s now November so I feel like it’s time to take stock of my WIPs and see what I can get done before the end of the year. ONE: I really want to get the months done for the Joyful World Calendar. November is half done, just waiting on a thread to finish that gorgeous peacock, and put the flowers […]
Oh, I was self-indulgent after some long hard days last week and DURING THE DAY (I usually do all my projects at night when the kids are in bed) I got crafty! A while ago, I had a little beaded scissor fob that broke. I saved the beads and went to Hobby Lobby to get some better materials to try […]
I’ve been doing a lot of stitching here and there, but not really finishing anything. I keep thinking and hoping I’ll finish something so I can join in an SAL or have something of consequence to post but alas. It is the end of the school year. We are busy. I haven’t had time to finish things, much less post […]
After finishing Leaping Cat last week I felt such a sense of accomplishment that I embarked on a stitching binge of which the main feature was picking up whatever project caught my eye and doing something with it. You’ve already seen Dilly Mouse but here’s what followed: First I started a project released at Nashville this year that I just […]
