I am linking up with Rachel at Ten Hour Stitcher<\/a> to participate in the Fully Finished Object SAL again this month. Thanks for hosting, Rachel!<\/p>\n

I did not get as much finished this month as I had hoped, but I did get one thing done that was time consuming and that I am especially proud of:<\/p>\n

This is Lorna Bateman’s Floral Beauty Pin Cushion, which was a complete kit my mother gave me for Christmas a couple years ago.<\/p>\n

I finished the embroidery up earlier this year and put it on the pincushion base, but my FFO was the picot beaded edge which took a couple hours this week. It was only a bit tricky.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Friends, this was an absolutely gorgeous kit to work with. I am rather new to ribbon embroidery and it had good instructions, and I appreciated that all the needles were included and labels and each stitch gave directions on which needle and which ribbon to use. It was very good for a beginner! If you want to get a kit yourself, Lorna has an etsy shop<\/a>. She is also releasing her first book<\/a> soon-I can’t wait to get it because now I feel more confident to assemble the materials myself and try another of her beautiful designs!<\/p>\n

My other finish is, you guessed it, Just Nan’s Hedgie Hedgehog! Here he is with his pins and leaf!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n\n\n

I stationed him in my shadow box after all, next to Mr. Nutley Owl. I thought they looked well together. I also needed him up high where the little hands in my household won’t be able to steal the pins!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So that’s it for me! About 1\/2 of what I planned, but I’m happy with it nonetheless!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
