Waiting For Spring!

I have had a cold for the last few days and have been feeling rotten and this little cutie came just in time to brighten my week-end! I won this from Sharlotte. Isn't it darling! I love the lace. Can't wait for Spring. We have over 70" of the white stuff and we are predicted to get about 12-18" over Tuesday and Wednesday. Really, enough is enough!
I pulled out Autumn at Hawk Run Hollow and finished the first square (which was 3/4 of the way done) and started the 2nd square. It's fun to do but it's so large that I will be doing other things in between the squares. It's done on 36 ct. Flax with VC silks. All the pic's are click able for a better view.

Another little finish for Spring. Spring Blooms by SB. The empty square will have a sheep button in it. It will be made into a pillow if I can ever get to the fabric store and then to Cheryl's. It won't be this week.
I thought that I would end with a picture of Sammi. She is on my lap because almost no stitching was getting done.
Thanks for all the great comments and for visiting my little piece of the world. Until next time keep warm and safe and...Happy Stitching

Is It Autumn Yet?

Image
I am so tired of the hot and humid weather. Summer is not my season. I have decided that I need to stitch Fall designs. I had Autumn Alphabet stretched and put in an in and out frame. Love the colors. After Autumn Band sampler was stretched, it also went into an in and out frame. Halloweenies is my favorite of all of these pieces. I just love Paulette's designs. I think that the frame is perfect for the design. Next up is Autumn on Marigold Lane. I think that this will probably be framed. It was a fun stitch that worked up quickly. I want to thank everyone for the birthday wishes. This was a big BD ..... 60! I wondered if I would feel different with this BD and I am glad to say that I don't. Yeah!! lol. I went to New Hampshire and Vermont with friends for a few days. I was treated like a queen. Stayed in a beautiful B&B, ate some wonderful food, shopped and saw some gorgeous scenery. I was a wonderful way to spend my birthday. Again, I want to thank all of you...

Plaid House!

Image
Thanks for visiting my little part of the world. The comments you leave mean the so much to me. It was a busy week here in Southern MA. I finished Plaid House by LHN. I used the natural linen called for and I must say I don't really care it. The piece looks good but the fabric wasn't fun to work with. I started Christmastide at Holly House by The Scarlet House. Please excuse the lousy picture. I don't iron while stitching. This piece is beautiful but will take awhile to finish. The house is massive. I picked up 2 pieces from the framer. Ye Be Thankful by Cross Eyed Cricket. I used a plain black molding. I did this piece last year. It's from Just Cross Magazine. I know that Paulette from PSS designed it. I just love the whimsy of it. Thought I would show somee Halloween finishes from years past. They are all hanging currently. A close up of the molding I picked. I thought that I Thanks for hanging in with this picture heavy post. Until next time ......

What a Great Week!

Image
This past week has been very busy with a limo stitching shop hop, cataract surgery and some wonderful mail! Rubie Owl is coming along nicely. I love everything about this design and have enjoyed every stitch. I won Theresa's giveaway(giraffexing.blogspot.com) and look what I received in the mail today. A beautiful needlebook, scissors, floss, lace and some beeswax. The little scissors are beautiful and I didn't have this pair. I love to use lace in my finishing and will put it to good use. Isn't the fabric just so happy? Behind the felt are two pockets where the scissors and floss were. It is a beautiful and generous giveaway. Thanks Theresa, I love everything. I also won the By The Bays giveaway. Donna was very generous because I really won the Halloween stitch an inch designs but I had already bought Halloween so she sent me the fall ones and the pendent. How great is that! I love these stitch an inch designs and I believe that fall is my new fav. Thanks, Donna. I love...
