July 2021 Fully Finished Gallery: Things with Wings

I can’t believe it’s time for another FFO Gallery link up! Thank you, Rachel for continuing to host this! This month evidently my personal theme is “Things with Wings.” I am proud to share my Amy Mitten Summer Casket Keepsake Butterfly for those who didn’t see it last week: And I have another butterfly to share, the Mill Hill Blue […]

Let the People Choose: Houses

The People’s Choice theme for July is Houses! This is perfect for me because this month I picked up a little piece that has not one, not two, but 10 houses on it! I have almost all the houses built. I couldn’t do the shadow side of the houses yet because I don’t like the floss color provided. It is […]

Let the people choose: Butterflies!

Jo of Serendipitous Stitching has long hosted a monthly People’s Choice link up, and this month it is Butterflies! I absolutely love butterflies. I always have. When I was a Girl Scout, I earned my Gold Award (which is roughly equivalent to a Boy Scout’s Eagle Project) and my project was planting a large butterfly garden in a public park. […]

June 2021 Fully Finished Gallery

I know you all are eager to see that Peacocks Purse, but my folks were visiting last week and there was no way I could spend the time needed on such an intimidating project! And this week is busy too. I will work on it for next month, ok? But I did fully finish my Drawn Thread Treasure Box for […]

May 2021 Fully Finished Objects

I’m linking up with Rachel at Ten Hour Stitcher for the Fully Finished Objects Gallery this month. This SAL is the best motivator to get those projects out of your box or drawer and out on display!

Gifted Gorgeousness April ’21

I am linking up for this month’s Gifted Gorgeousness blog hop with Jo of Serendipitous Stitching. I don’t usually participate in this one but I have Things To Share this time! Last month was my birthday and I got a VERY special stitching gift from my husband. It is Jewel of the Sea by Georgina Bellamy which was in the […]

April 2021 FFO Gallery

I missed the March FFO Gallery but I’m here to make up for it with the April one! I have several things finished up to share with you. You’ve seen them all finished before, recently, because I am mostly caught up with the things I care about finishing, and let’s be honest, which are easy and inexpensive enough to finish! […]
