IHSW_February 2020 Edition

This past weekend was International Hermit and Stitch Weekend (IHSW) for February.

It is such a lovely idea, isn't it? To be stitching with other like-minded people from all over the globe, no matter the time zone, all weekend long - bliss!  In fact, any stitching time is great, isn't it?

You can take part on your blog or via the Facebook page - IHSW on Facebook or click on the pic of Hermie below:



My IHSW started on Friday with FNSI (another virtual SAL), you can read all about what I stitched on this post here or on my Friday Frolics post here. The posts mirror each other, so you can click on either. Hint: there were Happy Dances!


Then on Saturday and Sunday, I did some FFOing but you will have to wait until the 10th of next month to see them as I am saving them for my Fully Finishing Gallery post.  But, you can see my last FFO post here, in case you missed it.

However, I do have some stitching to show you:

Progress has been made on "Jour D'Hiver" by Lilli Violette.  If you want to see what it looked like before IHSW - please click here.


... and I had a new start on Sunday for my New Start Sunday SAL blog - "Two White Houses" by LHN.


 It is part of the #LHNSUNDAYSAMPLER SAL on FB.


Here is Furio checking out my floss selection (as I have chosen a darker fabric I am having to swap out some of the colours for those with a better contrast).



.... and here is my progress pic....



Thanks for visiting and please don't forget to leave a comment as I do love a good chat,

hugs,

The Violette design is so pretty and fun to stitch.
Furio coordinates rather well with your chosen fabric!

Little Violette is so cute. Plus I love the Two White Houses. It will be fun to watch their progress!
