I haven’t updated you on some of my ongoing projects in a while mostly because I keep hoping there will be more to show if I wait another day or 2! Does anyone else do that? Well, I am guilty of it too often. Nonetheless, I do have some finishes to share, this one for 2 full weeks! Yes! I […]

FFO December 2022

Thanks to Rachel, one last time this year I have a FFO! This time it’s an old reliable stitch from Mill Hill…the Christmas Flamingo! Who doesn’t need a Christmas flamingo? We sure do because our littlest girl loves everything pink especially flamingos. She had a flamingo birthday last month. Here is her cake. A little less inspired than some of […]

I was planning to put the finishing touches on a few things before starting something new but for me sometimes making a plan is the surest way to deviate from it!! I went ahead and started a new project, Rosehips and Ivy by Blackbird Designs. I Can Not Put It Down! The colors and the linen I’m using are just […]

And the tiny pearl necklace??? Too cute! I’m almost done with this section! My goal is to finish it this week. […]

A Finish! And November Plans

Oops! I forgot to post this last week! So I’m I’m back dating it! I finished Praise Jesus over the last weekend of October. I’m very happy with it. The several small stitches I’ve just done look so nice together I feel like I should frame them into a little wall collage. Now I need to pick a new small […]

It’s the 10th Smalls Check In of the year! Only 2 more to go! How can THAT be?! I finished my Dutch Birds. Ta Dah! I really loved that Firestone red. I’m so glad for a chance to showcase it so nicely! I’m so glad I didn’t give in to buying the “correct” color. I have plenty left if I […]
