Bath Time

Remember that cute little model I recently finished for VeeandCo? Just look how Vee finished it for me!!!


Isn't it adorable? I was just thrilled to find it in my mailbox yesterday. Now, with these cute little robins at my house, Spring has no choice but to show up and melt away all these winter blues!

Hope you're having a fabulous stitching Saturday!

P.S. Don't forget to set your clocks ahead 1 hour tonight!

Happy Dance, Happy Dance!!!


IT'S DONE! IT'S DONE!

After 2 1/2 YEARS of stitching, my Houses of Hawk Run Hollow is FINISHED! Happy Dancin'!!!

This is the last square (I worked backwards) that I just finished last night. I moved A. Bailey's name down because I wanted her on there somewhere, and put my name at the top. I love how the two lines rhyme...

I haven't washed and pressed it yet. Just too excited to post! But here she is, my pride and joy...

It's stitched two over two on Vintage Country Grain Belfast with DMC. It measures a whopping 23" wide by 17 1/2" tall.

This WIP has seen lots of happy days, sad days, and has been my therapy on days that just weren't so nice. I've enjoyed every single stitch, and hopefully it will be something that my children will cherish once I'm "dead and in my grave." (I know, it's morbid, but I love it! LOL) I'll post it again after it's framed.

Thanks for sharing my happy dance today! :)

Model Finished

I was honored to stitch another model for Miss Virginia at VeeandCo this month. This one is called "Bath Time," and it's part of a new spring series she just released...


I just love the cute little robins, and the happy colors.

Thanks for visiting, and have a wonderful stitching day!

Blue Ribbon Part Deux

Thank you for the nice comments on my LK finish! :)

I've started round two of the Blue Ribbon Design ornaments. Last year I stitched 3 sets of Christmas Sentiments Volume I, and this is the first of Volume II. I'm using DMC on Vintage Country Grain Belfast...my absolute favorite fabric...


I finished two of them in January, and hope to get at least two more done by the end of this month. They're a quick stitch, and I just love the over one parts.
