Here it is, the very last Smalls Check In for 2022! Thanks to all of you who participate! Since I still have a number of bloggers joining each month, I will keep it going again in 2023, just the same as ever. Here is the new badge if you’d like to place it on your blog: My small this month […]
Merry Christmas!! Here is my seasonal smalls display of red and green. I love how well they coordinate! It makes me happy to see this every morning on my hall table. I hope you all had a happy celebration! We did indeed, with the slight wrench of Covid diagnoses in our family (not me, yet, but 3 of the 7 […]
Glitter! I love a little sparkle on my stitching, as you’ve probably noticed! All the same none of that sparkle is “glitter” per se, but much of it gives a glittery effect! It’s good to have this theme in December too, because that’s when I get out many of my sparkly pieces! Here are some favorites… Let It Snow Biscornu […]
I haven’t updated you on some of my ongoing projects in a while mostly because I keep hoping there will be more to show if I wait another day or 2! Does anyone else do that? Well, I am guilty of it too often. Nonetheless, I do have some finishes to share, this one for 2 full weeks! Yes! I […]
We are halfway to Christmas, Friends! I hope you are having a good, peaceful Advent! I don’t have a new stitch from me to share but this year I inherited some of my Grandma’s Christmas stitches and I’ve been saving them to share with you now! I have these cute little ornaments which my mom finished for me… And this […]
Thanks to Rachel, one last time this year I have a FFO! This time it’s an old reliable stitch from Mill Hill…the Christmas Flamingo! Who doesn’t need a Christmas flamingo? We sure do because our littlest girl loves everything pink especially flamingos. She had a flamingo birthday last month. Here is her cake. A little less inspired than some of […]
I was planning to put the finishing touches on a few things before starting something new but for me sometimes making a plan is the surest way to deviate from it!! I went ahead and started a new project, Rosehips and Ivy by Blackbird Designs. I Can Not Put It Down! The colors and the linen I’m using are just […]
Yesterday in the USA was Thanksgiving! My parents are here in Arizona for a visit. We had a wonderful feast! We truly have so much to be thankful for! I wanted to share a finish of the Sampler Etui needlebook, but it’s not done yet! But here is my progress. Maybe I’ll get it done this weekend. Then I can […]
Ok, so I did get a little sidetracked this past week, in a good way, which I will share later. Now I’m back to my plan. This past weekend I worked some more on MNO. Isn’t that owl adorable? And the tiny pearl necklace??? Too cute! I’m almost done with this section! My goal is to finish it this week. […]
Oops! I forgot to post this last week! So I’m I’m back dating it! I finished Praise Jesus over the last weekend of October. I’m very happy with it. The several small stitches I’ve just done look so nice together I feel like I should frame them into a little wall collage. Now I need to pick a new small […]
