Little House Neighborhood Nightmare!

I was dreaming last night that my LH Neighborhood had a snag in it, almost like a run in a stocking, or if you were to pull a string out of the linen. I pulled at the two sides and it came apart! I was so disappointed. All that work I put in to it. I didn't want to stitch it again. I was so glad when I woke up this morning and it was in one piece! What a relief!! :)

Little House Neighborhood as of 7/28/08

I got a package in the mail yesterday from DSL! Since I live so close to Amy it usually only takes one or two days for me to get them from her. What a treat for me!! :)

All Dolled Up charts

I love them all - I don't know which one to start first! :)

  3. Your LHN house is sooooooooooo pretty! I just love the colors in that one and your stitching is so uniform and pretty too! I am glad that was just a dream you had. It sounds like my experience with the roof of my house on mine as I frogged several times. The fabric was almost like your dream but I was able to fix it all. I love your new stash! Maybe I should order from her as my LNS never has these new things in for about a month after everyone else does. Do these new all dolled up patterns come with the buttons and beads or do you have to get them seperately? I love them and especially the strawberry house.

  4. HAHA, I received the same exact order yesterday from Amy! She is the best! I think you should start all 3, at least choose some fabric and do a 3 piece rotation over the course of 2 weeks, I bet you could get all 3 done! You're a very fast and detailed stitcher.
    A true inspiration to us bloggers.

  5. It is looking so good. OK I have a question. If you had to pick only one LH project to do or to do over which one would it be?

  6. That would definitely be a scary dream, Nicole. I’m glad it was just a dream! You are making such great progress on your Little House Neighborhood!

    Those new LHN charts are so cute – I really like the strawberry house one, but the bee is pretty cute, too!

  9. Yipes! That IS a nightmare! Only another stitcher could understand, eh? Do guys dream of their fishing poles falling into the water or of their drills shorting out? ;)

    I, too, vote for "start them all!"... lol, but in reality the chocolate box will probably grab my attention first. I have a sweet fetish like that. LOL

    Enjoy your stitching.. it's looking great!

  12. Dream interpretation? You're now torn between two homes: FL and Charleston...and your heart is still in two places so this gives you some anxiety. You probably are still settling in from the move and have some travel-lag from driving home and back for the week in FL! :] Don't worry! Everything is okay!! Hugs, Deb

  13. PS: I had a great time seeing you, Nicole. And I can testify that your stitching is more beautiful in person than on your blog!!

  17. That certainly was a nightmare. Glad to see your LHNeighborhood in one piece and looking terrific!

    New stash, you lucky thing. I'm going through stash withdrawals at the moment. Just hanging out to have a big spend-up after my holiday. Love all the Dolled Up charts.

    BTW - I liked Deb's interpretation of your nightmare.

  18. Start the strawberry house! My favorite! Funny (not ha-ha funny) about your nightmare. Mine's always spilling something dark on it that puts a big stain on the fabric. Don't even want to analyze that one.

  19. Your LHN Neigborhood is beautiful. I can imagine your relief when you saw your WIP and realized it was only a nightmare...

    I also want to let you know that I have been a regular reader of your blog for quite a while now, I am just a bit shy leaving comments. I find a lot of inspiration and enabling every time I visit here. I have nominated you for the Kreativ Blogger award.

    Your LHN SAL is looking wonderful. I've stitched the border on mine and am just finishing up all the leaves.
