A Couple of Quick Stitches

I think I am settling back in after retreat. That was such a fun week.

I have stitched and finished a couple of things. First, is my red stitch. This is a freebie by Carol D.


This is stitched on 40ct. Antique White linen with DMC #53 and Threadworx #1051. I made it into a pincushion using an antique mason jar top. Love it!

Then I made another pink stitch, as I didn't get one done last month. This is an Elizabeth's Design called "Love".


This is stitched on 32ct. Antique White Belfast linen with DMC floss. I really love this design.

That's all I got for today. Thanks for visiting.

Happy Stitching :)

Weekend Stitching

When I got up this past Saturday morning, I decided I was going to stitch something fun for me. After browsing through my stock I decided on this:



This is LHN's Traveling Stitcher. If you are familiar with this, you have noticed that I did not stitch it in the given colors. Of course I had to change it to purple. And a close 2nd favorite color for me is lime greenish--especially with purple. I used all DMC's except the purple, it is a Crescent Color as it was one I had in my stash. Hopefully soon, I will be making my own pouches using these luscious fabbies I received in an exchange last fall with Missy.


I definitely want to use the green, but haven't decided whether to use the dark or light purple.

I am so happy with how this turned out as I was kind of winging it!
