My Round Robin Is Home!

My Tranquil Stitches Neighborhood Round Robin is HOME! And just look what a beautiful job the gals did stitching on my piece...



Missy was nice enough to post a picture of it so I could snag it and show you.

Each one of the ladies stitched a different colored leaf on the tree, too, which totally rocks! I'm not sure exactly how I'll finish it up, but I'm so pleased with it. Thanks to Missy, Eva, Jorja, and JoAnn for adding such wonderful houses to my Neighborhood!

Jorja's Round Robin

I finished up my contribution to Jorja's Round Robin, and it's in the mail home to her as we speak. I stitched Elizabeth's Designs "Woodland Sampling" with a few little modifications...

I like how it turned out, and I hope Jorja does, too. Her RR is beautiful so far, and I'm anxious to see how she finishes it up...

Thanks for visiting, and happy stitching!

Finished Round Robin

Oh, this not having a computer really BITES! But one good side effect is that I've been stitching away.

This is what I stitched for JoAnn's TS Neighborhood Round Robin...


She chose the most gorgeous piece of lambs wool, and it was an absolute joy to stitch on. This is her lovely piece so far. I wanted to keep it, but I was good and sent it on it's way. Click to see it bigger...

I'll post more when I can. Until then, good day and happy stitching!

Eva's House Is Finished

For Eva I stitched LHN's "Peachtree Cottage..."

And here is her piece so far. I'm sorry for the wrinkles. Iron hasn't made it to the new house yet...

I hope she likes my addition to her neighborhood. I really enjoyed stitching this one.

Eva's House

This is the design that Eva chose for her TS Neighborhood Round Robin. Isn't it sweet?

I finished up the house and windows on my square last night. Just have the roof to go. I'm also going to add a few flowers around the yard, and maybe follow Missy's lead and add some little bluebirds. I'm really enjoying my first RR experience. I'm very lucky to have such sweet girls to stitch for!

My House With A Porch

Jorja finished her square on my TS Neighborhood RR and I just love it! She couldn't have chosen a better design. I absolutely adore the porch and the chimneys. I can't wait to see it in person!

This is where I am on House #11. I've put it away to stitch on Eva's RR for now, but I think I can manage to have it done by the end of the month. I love the orange, and the way the gold tones it down. Click to see it bigger...

Have a wonderful Saturday, everyone, and HAPPY STITCHING!

Missy's RR Is Finished

I finished Missy's house last night. She asked that we stitch a house that makes us feel comfy, and I chose "Pine Top Lodge" from LHN. I can just imagine cuddling up to a nice fire with my WIP and a cup of hot chocolate just stitching the night away here...

And here's the way it looks so far. I love the square she stitched! So appropriate for a friendship neighborhood! A skein of floss shows just how tiny the stitches are...

I hope Missy likes her new addition. :)

All Gridded Up!

My eyes are crossed from all the counting, but my TS Neighborhood RR piece is gridded up and ready for everyone to add their houses...

I'm not sure what I'll stitch in the spaces on each side of the top square, but there's definitely room for trees and such. And I plan to stitch "Tranquil Stitches" above and "2008-2009" below the center square.

Missy has decided she'd like us to stitch over one on her piece, so I'm going to have fun going through my stash and deciding what I'd like to add to it. She's such a sweetheart and I want to find the perfect house for her.

Working on my model at lunch, and hopefully this evening. Patrick said he's doing dinner tonight, so after I get the dishes done I hope to sit and stitch. Hope is a strong word! LOL
