Designer of the Year! This month’s theme from Jo or Serendipitous Stitching asks us if we’ve chosen a specific designer to focus on for the year. I was so excited when I realized that I had a really good project for this People’s Choice theme, as well as a certain Instagram SAL I just learned about, even if it did […]
It seems like I was getting antsy at the end of 2021 to start new things and I kind of binged on new starts! Everything I started I thought, “Well, this will be a good project to do next year!” So I really do have my work cut out for me. Getting everything out and (sort of) organized, I see […]
In 2021 I had 28 finishes. It is much less than the number of finishes as 2020 (42 I think?) but most of them were a good deal more complex. And several of them were off my “bucket list,” projects I deemed to be high priorities in my stitching career. I also had a good number of starts which I […]

First of all, the banner image features our mantel with the gorgeous needlepoint stockings my mom made and gave each of us over the years. I’ve shared them before but they are so special they must be […]
I was not able to get an FFO post this month because we’ve been so, so busy! My sister in law was visiting and I’ve been baking and making and cleaning and decorating. Maybe I should share some pictures so you can see how I’ve been using my stitching time, because truly it has been on the back burner these […]
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.
