I spent all of last week stitching Kloster Blocks on the Heirloom Nativity! My goodness…they are more time consuming that I thought they would be! You really have to pay attention. I’ve had to do a bit of picking out… I guess I am 3/4 done. I can’t wait to start the eyelets and cutting! I love doing the woven […]
I have several small projects going this month, I’m aiming to get a couple of them finished if not all. Here’s where they all are: Blackbird Design Wild Garden: Plum Street Sampler’s Birthday Tart: Beehive Needleworks Peacock Pin Pillow: What do you think of the “perfect blue?” This is Evening in Paris by Dinky Dyes. It is as bright as […]
I finished quite a few Smalls this month which I posted about earlier this week but my “official” Small for the May check in is The Blue Pot Pin Pillow from Mani Di Donna. When I saw this released at Nashville this year I had to have it! I loved everything about it! The overall colors, the picture, the Gloriana […]
I’m linking up with Jo’s People’s Choice for May- the theme is Flowers. I feel like a lot of my stitching has flowers in it! Here are some highlights: Fobs by The Drawn Thread and The Scarlett House Blackbird Designs’ “Spring Arose” which still has not been FFO’d but which I still think is SO pretty! Various Flowers on Pillows: […]
We had a long weekend up in Flagstaff for my son’s last baseball tournament. I got more stitching done than usual for a weekend getaway! Yay! And by done I mean finishes! Woo hoo! First, here’s June from Snowflower Diaries Joyful World Calendar: Then Bent Creek’s Buzzzz. So cute! It will be a little pin pillow. I already have the […]
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 […]
My 6 year old will very soon be a 7 year old. She has yet to lose a baby tooth (yes, that’s late but she didn’t get her first tooth until she was 13 mos!) but some are starting to be wiggly so I needed to start her tooth fairy pillow so it can be a birthday present for her. […]
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 […]
Welcome back for the April Smalls Check In! We are 1/3 of the way through the year! Wow! In Arizona, “spring” is winding down and we are heading definitely into our long, hot summer. We’ve already had days approaching 100 degrees where I am, and the kids inaugurated pool season on last weekend. The water is still a bit cool […]
I’m gonna finish this tonight!!! Ta Da!!! I love it! It is totally worth all the annoying moments!!! And now… a new start!
