A Stitcher's Finish

Good evening all ! 

I have a wonderful finish to show you that

was sent to my by my new friend, Paula of 

Kelmscott Designs

She has stitched up Bloom Sampler

and wanted it to be a square pillow.

How adorable.  And don't you love her 

star scissors.  I know there are many of you

who are scissor crazy like me.  You can never

have too many. Right?

Well Paula, this turned out lovely and I'm

so glad you enjoyed stitching it. 

Thank you for sharing your finish.

Until next time, Happy Stitching.

A Stitcher's Finish

Still battling this chest cold and yet it's back to 

work tomorrow.  Yikes!

I have tried to rest up as best as I could

this weekend and spent most of my 

time keeping my hands busy stitching.

Not much energy for much else :(

xxxxxxx

I have 2 wonderful finishes to show you

today that were just recently sent into me.

This Bluebird Sampler finish was done

by my friend from across the pond, Michelle.

She got this stitched up quite quickly and

framed it for her wall of cross stitched 

Bird pieces.  What a great idea.

Next, Mouse sent in her Bloom Sampler
finish that she made into a cushion.
Love the embellishments!  How sweet.

Thanks girls for sending these in for all of us
to see. 
Now back to resting.  
Happy Stitching.

*A Beautiful Day for Stitching*

I spent the day outside on our deck, stitching in the sunshine.  I was supposed to be doing finishing work up in my studio, but it was just too nice of a day to stay inside.  I'm stitching some pieces that I hope to post to TDIPT on the 15th.  As I get them finished I'll try and get pics posted here on my blog.

 I recently finished another custom order.  This time for a "Bloom" pinkeep.  The customer wanted something with more of a summery feel, so I used a light greenish overdyed wool and some taupe colored ric rac for the finish.  I got the wool from Ram in the Thicket.  Susan, the owner, has the most amazing array of colors and a whole section dedicated to just primitive colors.  How great is that? 

Well, I was very happy with the way it came out and hope she likes it just as much.

Enjoy the day and Happy Stitching.

*Another Stitcher's Finish*

Hi everyone.  I have another stitched finished.  This one was sent to me by Terri.

She stitched "Bloom Sampler" into a sweet little bed pillow using coordinating fabric and trim.  It's just so pretty.

Thank you Terri for sending me a picture of your beautiful finish and letting me share it.

Still working on some new designs so I'll be stitching as much as possible this weekend.

Smiles,
