I haven't been stitching much at all, but I did manage to do the stitching on two ornaments (I'll wait to show a picture until they are "finished"), and a small Bent Creek piece. This is Are You My Mother?...a piece I've wanted to stitch for a long time. It's stitched on a pale yellow jobelan with Weeks and GAST threads.
I've also been stitching on Count Your Blessings from Shakespeare's Peddler. This is a traveling pattern and it is such a cute design and a great reminder to be thankful for all the things in our lives...big and small. I am not quite finished with it, but very close, so I thought I would post now to see who might be interested in stitching this one next. This is the pattern:
If you would like a chance to be the next stitcher, please leave a comment on this post and let me know that you are interested. All that is asked is that once you receive the pattern, you stitch it in a reasonable amount of time, sign your name to the chart, and then send it along to the next person. We're going away for the weekend, so I will choose the next stitcher on Monday.
Finally, it's time for the monthly posting of our collected orts - TUSAL! My little jar is looking pretty full...it looks like there is a lot of blue in there, but I can't remember what I stitched this month that had blue threads! Hmmm....one more mystery to solve!
And, just because...here's a photo of my little grandson. He came by the other night for a surprise visit and made his grandma & grandpa very happy!
Until next time, thanks for visiting!
Goodness...you certainly have been stitching by the looks of your TUSAL. Love your cute finish too.
ReplyDeleteI love your little BC piece! Well done! And nice fill of your ort jar :)

I am interested in the Count your Blessings traveling pattern. Please count me in. Your Bent Creek design is great! Really cute.
ReplyDeleteYour projects are really beautiful. Your grandson is as well. I am getting ready to start a new project.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute finish!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to throw my name in for CYB, but with the post going on strike I think I'll wait for a bit.
I am interested in the traveling pattern as well. I've never done that and it sounds like fun! I have learned to definitely count my blessings in the last year or so due to my sister's cancer diagnosis. Not a day goes by that I don't say my prayers for the little things in life. :)
ReplyDeleteOh and that Bent Creek pattern is adorable!
