I also made some progress on my Sunday project the Ruth Bacheler sampler. I finished the Irish stitches on the side and got a start with the first row of the alphabets. Still love the vibrant colors and I think my husband might actually like this one as well LOL!
As I mentioned in earlier posts, Katrina and I are stitching 12 different ornaments each but the trick is we stitch them twice and at the end of the year we give each other the 'doubles' we stitched and that way we end up with 24 ornaments. I finished my 2 for April!
For my Friday SAL with Katrina I stitched a bit more on Miss Lila and I just love the color conversion from Jean at the Attic for this one.
I like to have no more than one or two SAL's at the same time as I like to go with what I fancy to stitch on so this rotation works perfect for me. We had a wonderful week in Las Vegas! It was the first time being there for us and we enjoyed it. The weather was very nice and we got a nice start on a tan. We needed that sun after the winter in NJ. :-) We had lots of great meals, walked around, rented a car to see the Hoover Dam and the State Parks. Also managed to get tickets for the Cirque de Soleil show 'Love' in The Mirage. It was amazing and so well done on the music of the Beatles. I took a few stitching projects with me on our trip but did not stitch at all!
Thank you all very much for your lovely comments on my blog. It has been great to get to discover new blogs!

Oooooh! Love PTP fabrics! Aren't they wonderful? I love how your Ruthie is looking and Miss Lila too! I'm still envious that you saw the Cirque Beatles show. :(
I like your choice in fabrics, pretty colors! I plan to stitch Miss Lila one of these days.
Very nice new fabric. Isn't it always fun to play around with different fabric colours when looking for the perfect fabric for a project?
What a neat idea to share ornaments.
Miss Lila looks great already.
You're making great progress on Ruthie and Miss Lila. I love the conversion!
You and Katrina have ambitious plans for your ornament exchange... you're off to a great start.
PTP linens are wonderful... I think we both placed an identical order.
Lovely fabrics, Karin! Your ornaments for you & Katrina are wonderful--good for both of you for keeping up with it! I love love love Lila!! Ruthie looks wonderful, too.
Love the fabrics, they are all so pretty and a great assortment to have too! Your ornaments x two are looking great, and I think that is a wonderful idea, you and Katrina are doing!
Love Your progress on Ruthie and Lila, they are going to be so special when done! Keep up the wonderful work on them!
The fabrics are great! And the ornaments are so cute!!
I emailed you earlier this week. My friend and I are thinking about going to NY this July and I need advice!!
Wat leuk dat je vakantie zo lekker geweest is. Wat een mooie werkjes heb je alweer gemaakt. Hmmmm, ik zal ook eens een kijkje nemen op die site voor linnen. Ik borduur de laatste tijd toch ook weer lekker wat weg. Groetjes en fijn weekeinde
All your linens are gorgeous, I got a lot of the same colors. I have to admit, I wasn't crazy about the chalice so I returned it and got something else.
Miss Lila is really coming along, it's so fun stitching them together :-).
Love the ornaments. I've sent my last few off without taking pictures. I will have to post pictures when they come home from the finishers.
What a great ornament idea! Love your wips. x
