I made my excuse be the obligation to do one last thing for “Naughty November” (hosted by Rachel the Ten Hour Stitcher) and started something yesterday-Stacy Nash’s Summer Garden Roll: This is one short night of stitching on the border that shows the width. I don’t expect this to take as long as my other roll, the Bargello roll! The […]
We were on fall break this past week* so I didn’t have a lot of time to finish things up, so I tried to get most of it done before we left. I also didn’t have too much recently stitched to FFO anyway. I made the Pensee Sauvage by Samplers Not Forgotten into a pillow per the kit instructions. Oh […]
It wasn’t too hard to finish up my small for this month! This is the Summer Garden Needlebook by Stacy Nash. The kit came with the cardboard ovals, batting, fabric, and ribbon. I’m so glad not to have to cut my own ovals! I made a round needlebook from JBW earlier this year so I’m familiar with this style of […]

Then I put it away, get distracted, and because […]
I took a bit of a break from stitching this week to finish some things for Rachel’s Fully Finished Object Gallery. Finishing is always more fiddly and time consuming than I plan, so I did not have anything ready to show on the 10th, but I’m only a few days late so I still think I did pretty well this […]
For a while this month I was not sure which of my smalls would get finished for the check in. I was working on several you know, and it was sort of a race to the finish, which one would “win,” and how many I could get done! Well, it’s a tie…sort of. I finished the stitching for Spring Flowers […]
