IHSW round up ......

Well, I have to say that I have had the most productive IHSW this weekend.  Friday night (which happened to by FNSI)  I completed the Finishing on three small cushions, finished stitching a row of Halloween cats and did some sewing on another Halloween small cushion.  You can see pictures of all of these here.

Then on Saturday (late afternoon and evening) I finished stitching my first Little Sheep Virtue: Hope by LHN. This is a SAL I am doing with Sarah,  Lija and Anne.




Little Sheep Virtues: Hope
LHN
28 ct linen (unknown)
DMC threads

Then on Sunday, I did the final Finish on my two Halloween pieces, I am very pleased with how they have turned out and with the bright Halloween fabric I paired them with.






The last item I worked on was my PS Santa's 12 Days of Christmas which is a Sunday SAL with my dear friend, Linda.  I am up to Day 7.


So, as I said, the most productive of weekends.  I love it when FNSI and IHSW coincide.  If you want to see what everyone else got up to for either FNSI or IHSW, follow the links.

FNSI Fun last night......

.... how did you all go last night with sewing/stitching/crafting for Friday Night Sew In (FNSI)?  [Click the link if you want to see what everyone else did].

I was very pleased with what I accomplished.

First off, I finished the stitching on this row of cats with bright green eyes, taken from a larger design in this year's JCS Halloween Ornie Magazine.  The fabric is actually quite orange, I am not sure why the camera washed it out so much.


Then I cut out some strips to border another Halloween design I finished stitching the other day.


Then I Finished three small cushions:


Springtime Messenger:

... and Strawberries x 2.


... and lastly, I stitched a little more on my Little Sheep Virtues SAL (I stitched the snow)



So, what did you all get up to?  Tell me, tell me, please.

Now, for the rest of the weekend it is a funeral for me to go to today (the mother of my sweet friend, Marie) , then more stitching fun for IHSW.

Gotta go, have a good one, everyone,

hugs,
