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 […]
SNOW! I’m linking up with Jo of Serendipitous Stitching, for her monthly People’s Choice blog and the theme for February is SNOW! Here in the Phoenix area, February is really the start of our spring so any thoughts of snow at the moment seem out of season! I know that is a foreign concept to many of you in colder […]
Fancy Finishes! Every month Jo hosts us over at Serendipitous Stitching for a themed blog hop. And Fancy Finishes, the theme for December, is right up my alley! If you’ve read my blog for any length of time you know I do like to try my hand at some fancy finishing. Especially this year I challenged myself to do some […]
Thank you, Rachel, for hosting the FFO Gallery! Such good motivation for that final push to finish projects! Here is my Faby Reilly “Let It Snow” biscornu. Whew! So glad to have this one in the books. I think it’s lovely though and am so glad I stuck with it. I found the sew-on Swarovski crystals on Etsy from Crystallized […]
I finally finished the stitching on the Let It Snow biscornu from Faby Reilly. It is beautiful but I did not love stitching it. I’m not going to list all the reasons why, I’m just going to enjoy that it’s done! I’ve made several biscornus so I’m expecting this to be a cinch to finish off. Hopefully you’ll see the […]
It’s been a crazy, but peaceful, time. We had spring break the 2nd week of March, and then like many schools, were told not to come back to school for one, then two, four weeks, and now the school year will be completed at home. One by one all our activities were cancelled. I have to say, I actually don’t […]
My FFOs this month were supposed to be FFOs last month, but you know how it goes around the holidays! Anyway, I am so glad Rachel has decided to continue to host the FFO Gallery so that I can share these with you now! First is my Little Berry Thief Berry from Scattered Seed Samplers. It may be a little […]
Finally! I am ready to post the work I’ve been doing lately! I’ve been stitching on lots of little things! I finished my submission for the Ornies SAL. I chose A Star, A Star by The Sunflower Seed from the 2007 issue of Just Cross Stitch Ornaments. I really like how it came out! I thought I had the perfect […]
