Hello my lovelies and Happy Valentine's Day....
Hello Lovelies,
So, it is that time of the month again - time to show off my Fully Finished Objects...
Hosted by Rachel the Ten Hour Stitcher
For February, I have finally finished Cardinal Winter by LHN, which I started in March last year.
Hello my Lovelies,
The redoubtable and inspirational, Jo from Serendipitous Stitching, who has a sister blog called "Come Happy Dance with Me" has inspired me to start my own Happy Dance Blog, called "The Kittens are Happy Dancing". Please click on the pic below if you would like to check it out. I am going chronologically and so the first four posts are from 2011 (but please do excuse the poor quality of the photos and yes, they are out of order already as I found a later Happy Dance post with an earlier (2010) finish - so annoying to be out of order alread - lol!).
Hello my lovelies,
One of the joys of having built a brand new house is the chance to start a new garden and boy, have we (mainly TraderVic) been working hard on landscaping, planning and planting our new garden. Here are a few pics to show you the bounty from our garden - I love flowers.... In another post, I will show you some more pics of the actual garden.
Hello my lovelies,
I am so sorry that I have not visited with you all since April last year - not sure where the time has gone - especially as we (like so many of us) were in lockdown for most of it. I promise you, a lot of reading, stitching and knitting got done but for some reason, I really hermitted and posted on IG rather than on Blogger. But it is a NEW YEAR, so here goes.
This is what I have been stitching this month....
Unfortunately, for me, despite stitching like mad all month I didn't quite finish my choices for two of the themes: One (12 Days) and Four (Nutcracker) for the Christmas Ornie SAL which I host. Although I did make a lot of progress on my Nutcracker Village for Theme Four.
But firstly, here is my 12 Days design - by Jim Shore - this is a picture of what it will look like when finished....
.... and here is my rather pathetic progress on it!
But I am pleased to say that my first section of Nutcracker Village by Country Cottage Needlework is coming along very well (although not finished). It is stitched on the called for sparkly fabric but I couldn't seem to get the sparkles to show up but I must say I think it is one of the prettiest Christmas designs I have ever stitched and I am sorry to say that the photos do not really do it justice.
Okay, TUSAL time again, here are my April ORTs.... Travel ORTs on the left and home ORTs on the right, sitting with a pile of my latest Stash Empire acquistions (some lovely fabric for finishing Christmas Ornies).
If you would like to see everyone else's TUSAL reports for February, please go to Daffycat's Blog and check out the comments section (please note, Sharon has not yet put up her April post so this link to her March post),
So, it is that time of the month again - time to show off my Fully Finished Objects...
