Well, I am LATE with this posting but it’s a good long one! Rachel at Ten Hour Stitcher has created a wonderful new SAL to encourage FFOs this year! Posts are supposed to be up by the 10th of the month, but I needed a little extra time for various reasons! Nonetheless, this is an excellent SAL for me because […]
Can you believe it is already the last Friday in January and time to check in with our first Smalls post of the year? 2019 is already flying by! Because I live in Arizona, USA, which is Mountain Time, and I know many of you are far to the east of me, I am putting up the post up on […]
This past weekend I finished up the American Goldfinch kit from Crossed Wing Collection for my mom’s birthday present. While it sure is cute, it is hard to sustain the micro stitching for long. Good thing it’s a little project! I finished it in a Tim Holtz watch fob like I did with my cardinal last year. This is an […]
I finished up Mr. Nutley Owl by Just Nan for this month’s Smalls SAL. Here he is! Isn’t he darling? I can see why these designs are addicting. It is just SO cute! I also finished up my Christmas Ornies SAL project for this month’s theme “O Christmas Tree.” This is the Christmas Tree Scissors Keep from The Victoria Sampler […]
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 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’m linking up with Heather of Stitching Lotus for our monthly Smalls check in! I got all the beads on Star Santa, as perhaps you expected! Do you remember this Threedles design from a while ago? I found the beads I needed on clearance at JoAnn’s so I got that done too! So fancy! I can’t wait to make another […]
Here in Arizona it is hot, hot, hot! The heat really saps my energy! And, with the kids’ summer activities, I don’t have blocks of time for stitching, alas! However I do snatch moments here and there on a variety of small projects. Little by little it adds up, and I realize have quite a lot to show! First, my […]
Normally on vacation I do not get any stitching done at all. Not this time! This time I got strep throat and had to sit in quarantine in the cabin while everyone else went out and had fun. Yay! I ate ice cream, listened to audio books, nursed the baby, and beaded like a crazy person. Here are Christmas Angel […]
Here’s my April Small for Heather’s Smalls SAL, Bugs and Birds by Lizzie Kate: Cute! This was a kit that came with a prefinished stitching wallet. The fabric is so cheerful! It was great to have something little and cute all finished. I learned how to stitch in hand better on this too. It’s not as neat for me as […]
