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 […]
Happy Halloween! It’s time once again for another of Jo’s famous blog hops! If you are visiting by happenstance why not go back to Jo’s and start at the beginning so you can collect the letters for the spooky mystery phrase? Otherwise, read on! My seasonal stitching is Little Black Cat by Bent Creek. I’ve done several others in this […]
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 […]
I’ve had very productive stitching time lately! I made very good progress on my Dutch Birds project. It was a gift to me after Summer School at The Attic-a great bonus of working in a shop! The design is by From The Heart. She has some very pretty, modest designs and I’m glad to see her work more on social […]
I’m taking part in Jo’s People’s Choice this month to highlight pet themed stitching. For me, that means cats. Although I don’t have any pets at the moment, until recently I had cats my whole life, and before children I also went through a period of serious fish-keeping. But I learned that aquarium fish are more a hobby than a […]
BEADS! Many thanks to Jo for hosting the People’s Choice Blog Hop! Oh man, I had no witches to show you last month, I don’t think I even have one pattern with witches on it! But beads I have in spades! I love designs that use some beads to add sparkle, dimension, and interest to the project. They just give […]
I’m linking up with Jo at Serendipitous Stitching to share my super gorgeous gift for my parents’ 50th Anniversary…you saw the creation, and now here is the (almost) finish (the frame is on backorder…it’s a long story!!) Sandy, who is the framer at The Attic, mounted it for me. Perfect as always. I will give it to them this weekend..
It was like pulling teeth but I managed to get my little FFOs done this month! As always I’m linking up with Rachel to share my work, and to thank her for the much-needed kick in the pants I once again needed to get anything fully finished! Here is my sweet little Sugar Plum Fairy Mouse! I left the pom […]
Series of designs! Thank you, Jo for providing such an interesting theme to discuss! I enjoyed thinking on this topic, and look forward to others’ posts as well! Even though from my blog posts it may not seem like I don’t do much stitching of series, I certainly do a lot of collecting for it! And I do love seeing […]
It’s time for the annual Easter Blog Hop hosted by Jo of Serendipitous Stitching! I wanted to make up a quick project for you and I had this kit from the Silver Needle’s Secret Stitching Night. It’s not my usual thing but it sure is cute and perfect for the occasion! The bunny is stitched with Rainbow Gallery Angora yarn. […]
