I finished the alphabets in my La D Da projects. Here’s Lazy Alphabet And Leaping Cat For Lazy Alphabet there are a few more little flowers and things and then the border which is just a solid navy line and a dotted red line. Easy peasy! For Leaping Cat there is quite a bit more work- 3 trees, a bunch […]
Friends, today I mark my 2nd full year of blogging! Knowing myself, when I started this blog at that time I was not sure how long I would do it! And I must say I am so proud of myself for posting at least monthly in those 2 years! I don’t have any *new* stitching to share with you but […]
Welcome all you visiting from Heather’s Smalls SAL! I feel like I have several little things going at the moment and it was too hard to decide which to finish for this month’s small! But ultimately all of them just had too much work to finish in the time I had left this week, so I picked up something new […]
I have been working on 4 La-D-Da designs this past week. And because I have one more in my “Do in 2018” pile and another on the way, neither of which I can justify starting without a finish, I needed a La-D-Da-A-Thon! But lest you think I neglected the Just Nan birth record (Baby Celebration) I did not! So I […]
I’ve indulged in a lot of daytime stitching and late nights. I should get more sleep…I should clean my house but…well, I’m sure you understand! Plus I started a new audiobook so what can I do??? I completed the bottom part of Lazy Alphabet: There is a solid navy line around the whole which I will do in hand last. […]
My stitching has continued to be quite random lately, just working on what calls me at the moment. I have a little progress to share from last week: Lazy Alphabet by La D Da. (This one is so fun!) Charmed by Raise the Roof (Also so fun!) English Sampler Pillow (I messed up the spacing of the mauve dots so […]
I finished up the French Garden Fob from 2 weeks ago for my August Small! Boy was this ever fiddly. It came out fine but I wish the back had come together nicer. It was so quick to stitch up perhaps I’ll give it another go in the future. Or at least attempt the technique again which was an interesting […]
I wanted to see if I could make a whole small in a day. I chose the fob from French Garden by The Drawn Thread. I will for sure get it done tonight, I have 3/4 of the border left, but wanted to take a picture while there is still good light. Here it is!
I just couldn’t help myself. I had to start a few more projects! They all came out of my “do in 2018” pile and I figured if I don’t go ahead and get them started in 2018, they don’t even have any hope of being done in 2018! I’ve also been working on more finishing so I have some FFOs […]
I’m still plugging away at the GPA English Sampler Pillow: It’s showing progress! The pillow sure is pretty to stitch on though the loopy trim does catch my thread frequently. I discovered I made a big mistake. Instead of starting 4 threads from the bottom I started 4 stitches from the bottom! Oh no! I will not be able to […]
