March!

It has been a nice stitching month. I have made progress and did finish a few pieces as well as starting a few new ones LOL! Also went to my LNS and signed up for the Brightneedle classes at the end of April. Something to look forward too!! A whole day of stitching and chatting and I am going to meet Margaret !


Sunday's is Ruth Bacheler Sampler day and this is the update after working on it for 3 Sundays! I am stitching this on 36ct Vintage Navy Bean in DMC

Friday's Katrina and I are having a SAL and this week we started a new one: Miss Lila's Sampler from Barrick Samplers. I am stitching this on 40ct with a converstion in Belle Soie silks Jean at the Attic has done.

Another WIP on which I added a few stitches. It is Needleprint's Mary Peacock done in the conversion by SB.

A finish!!! One of the Friday SAL and it is from Shepherd's Bush called Love Letters. The other finish I will post in my next update as I haven't made a photo yet.

Also a big thank you for your comments and compliments on my stitching!! I really appreciate it!

@Annemarie: yup the plan is to stitch 24 ornaments this year. Actually it isn't as bad as it sounds LOL. I stitch 2 per month and as they are the same it goes really very quick.

@ Jeanne: it is indeed a Jeannete Douglas ornament and you can find it in the 2008 JCS Ornament Issue.

Happy Stitching!

More!

Here you see my finished Simply Life from The Primitive Needle done in a conversion in Belle Soie silks from Jean at the Attic.

Also I finished a few ornaments. Katrina and I are stitching each 12 different ornaments, only the trick is we stitch each chosen ornament twice! At the end of year we give each other these ornaments so we end up with 24 (!!!) different ornaments. Isn't that cool?! It is so easy to stitch the same ornament twice as you have the fabric and threads all ready.

I also finished the last RR in our Neighbourhood RR!! This is a Sheepish Design I stitched on Lynn's RR. Now I just have to wait till mine comes home and I know from Susan it is close!

Thanks for looking!

Another Shepherd's Bush finish!

First another Shepherd's Bush finish! This time 'Sail Away'! I started this for my Friday night project in December and finished it 2 weeks ago (forgot to post it here earlier). I think I will send this one and Roma's Garden to Jill Rensel to finish.

Two weeks ago I started Simply Living from Primitive Needle as my next Friday project and this time Katrina joined me. So tonight it is back to this one and I just love it. I have ordered a few of Lisa's new designs from Market. I bought this chart, threads and fabric in November when I was at the Attic Retreat and Jean made a conversion to Belle Soie silks and I love the fibrant, rich colors.

This week I started stitching on Lynn's Neighbourhood RR and I will post a photo when it is finished not to spoil the surprise for her. Tomorrow I go to my LNS Where Victoria's Angels Stitch for their Nashville Market Day. I already ordered a 'few' things online but it will be fun to browse as well in a shop and I am sure I bring home more.
