My stitching has been interrupted a bit as I hinted at earlier!\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This WIP was finished November 10! But she sleeps a lot and I continue to make some progress on little things…<\/p>\n

Last year I stitched this design from Lindsay Lane, Wishes do to Heaven Aspire. I love how sweet it is. But I really saw it not as a square but as an octagon pillow.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I  was quite lazy and didn\u2019t feel like stitching in a guide to make sewing the pillow perfect so I kept putting it off. <\/p>\n

But then…for the Pyn Pillow, Milady\u2019s Needle showed the drawn thread method to make a guide! You just pull out a linen thread so many threads away from the stitched area. So easy to achieve perfection! Then I just needed to stitch the cropped corners- simple! And I decided to add the lace by hand since that wasn\u2019t so bad on the pin pillow either! Perfect, and done.<\/p>\n

\nNext up was finishing X-mas In My Heart, here it is. It came out a bit wonky for all my care. The chenille trim covers a host of faults, thank goodness. Hearts, I have decided, are hard. Until I discover the trick of them. There must be a trick!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nI needed some quick and easy things these days so started a couple Mill Hill ornaments: <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I\u2019m waiting for some smaller beading needles for the drum as the petite seed beads just don\u2019t fit on the provided needle. Grrr! I ripped the paper too and now have to patch it somehow. I often have trouble with those green seed beads!<\/p>\n

So I started the Santa while I\u2019m waiting. These will probably be my last starts of the year…except for a new birth record!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
