A New Start for February

First, thank you to those who have left me comments.  I think I have figured out how to respond to your comments.  It is so nice to know that others 'get it'!

I've made this little start on my lunchtime/travel project.  

Sampler Months - February
Little House Needleworks



I'm working this over one to be made into a little pillow.  Hopefully next time I post I will have added some color!

Keep on Stitching!

Sunday Summary

I finished stitching Sampler Months - January on Saturday night.  I wasn't able to sleep due to a three hour nap in the afternoon.   Here it is with the stitching finished. 

Sunday afternoon I finished it into this little pillow.  I had thought I would use the green snowman fabric when I first started the stitching.  I am happy with the way this turned out. 

 Except that when I put in the intended basket it looked a little lonely.  See what I mean?

So I headed to the attic and found this other bigger pillow that I had finished years ago.  Still not the look I want but it's a bit better.

Then I decided to look through the box of shame and I found the following pieces which I can finish sometime soon to add to the basket.

Then I needed a new lunchtime/travel project.  So I started Winter Fling by Heart in Hand.  This one will be a quick stitch.  I had to make myself stop stitching on this.  I hope to make some more progress on this at lunchtime this week.

Have a great week!

Keep on Stitching!

Samplermakers Saturday

Yesterday was Samplermakers.  A group of ladies who orginally got together to finish a project from a class they had taken and have been meeting ever since.  I found out about the group several years ago and love going.  They meet once a month, usually the second Saturday for about 4 hours.   A very informal group.  There are all kinds of things  being worked on.  Some ladies knit. Some stitch.  And some do both. 

I took along Sampler Months this time, my travel project.  It's amazing how much progress a girl can make on a small with project with a few uninterupted hours of stitching time! 

This month one of the ladies proposed that those who are interested and have Betsy Morgan's Toy Chest in progress complete the stitching on the scissor case before the May meeting at which time we will assemble them.  Sounds good.  Hope I remember to get that baby out between now and then and get that piece worked.

Keep on Stitching!

Sampler Months

Earlier this month I started Sampler Months - January by Little House Needleworks.  I am stitching this using the recommended floss over one on 28 count.   So far I've made a bit of progress.  I plan to have this be my lunchtime project and travel project.

Have a great night.

Keep on Stitching!
