I’m very close on Oakley Owlet thanks to a return to weekend baseball tournaments. They are limiting fans so we are livestreaming my #1 son’s games from home. Convenient! Can you tell I’ve made progress on Autumn Quakers since last week? I can. But then when I pull it out of the hoop and look at the big picture, I […]
I know we all in the stitching community love our dear pets so I felt you all would be good people to share this with. I have mentioned once or twice before that our family has a feline member-this is my stitching buddy, Kiwi. I was only 22 or 23 here! And Kiwi was just barely out of kitten-hood. Kiwi […]
Last week I didn’t just work on the reticule. We are back to school with online school for 4 of our 5 kids so I haven’t had quite as much stitching time but I did get some work done on some Smalls. Lest I don’t get around to it, I committed to Smalls first thing since I didn’t get one […]
Why is it that small projects often give the most trouble? I have 2 lovely projects I was working on last week and both have given so much hassle. I think I’m not paying attention! I’ve been careless and it is wasting my time! Let me tell you about it! Last month I showed my start on Betsy Morgan’s Satin […]
I found my DMC 225 and finished Just Nan’s Celestial Collaboration last night. I have an ambitious finishing plan. You will not see it this month. Or even next month. This idea has to bake a while! 🙂
I only managed one tiny FFO this month, Just Nan’s March Hare in a cute little frame a had stashed away for “just the right thing.” Head back to Rachel’s at Ten Hour Stitcher if you want to find more prolific finishers! 🙂
I am doing my allocated December stitching. I have started my Joyful World December. I have re-started my Faby Reilly biscornu. I’m not sure I ever showed it before. Well, here it is now! And…I have gotten back into Heirloom Nativity. I took out the work that I wasn’t pleased with (the top middle section) and I am redoing it. […]
This week I finished Scattered Seed’s The Little Strawberry Thief! It is so cute! The strawberry finish should be a cinch. And now, since it is done earlier than I expected, I will try to finish my Bit of Summer pindrum from Blackbird Designs for my small this month. I made good progress this week: This is a club kit, […]
This week I finished up November from The Snowflower Diaries’ Joyful World… And the Heart’s Content Mini Motif Sampler Fall Foliage: I’m so happy with these two! Now on to December and to frame the sampler. The kit came with a gorgeous tiny burled wood frame. The Little Strawberry Thief is coming along-hope to get it done this weekend!
But I made progress last week! I only have a little bit of white border left on the Mini Motif Sampler, and then an easy-peasy backstitched line around the whole edge. I’ve made an excellent start on The Little Berry Thief from Scattered Seed Sampler’s club. It will be my small this month! I have my “Sunflower” floss and can […]
