Sarah Woodham

I definitely have stitching ADD lately. I can seem to settle on one project for long. I got out Shakespeare's Peddlers "Sarah Woodham 1770" and have been working on it for a few days. I'm really loving it again.

40 ct. Vintage Pearled Barley, various silk threads (1 over 2).


Well, I was supposed to go up to Manning to spend the day with Amy, but I've come down with something - I think it's a head cold - I had a mild case of pink eye and then woke up with a headache and stuffy nose today. I felt so bad for not being able to make it up there, but didn't want to risk getting her sick! So I guess I'm just going to hang out in my pjs and read or stitch. Write soon!

  4. Your Sarah is looking great! I've got the border done and a quarter of the honeysuckles done on mine. A few of the motifs as well. I'm really looking forward to getting her back out in January. :) I love seeing you work this from the bottom. The parakeet is lovely.

    Hope you feel better soon!

  10. Hope you get feeling better Nicole. Your sampler is just beautiful. I typically have ADD when it comes to stitching unless it's a tiny piece. Hugs and have a good weekend.

    Hope you get well soon. I know that stuffy feeling is a fatigue-maker.

  27. Hi Nicole, This is beautiful! I started 'Christmas Rules' but after seeing yours am going to stop and get new fabric as the shop I ordered from sold me a long piece but it will be too narrow to frame. I only had the snowman and the 'C' done so I can use the fabric for something else. Would you be able to email me at
    jcontini@ cogeco.ca and let me know what fabric you used and what dimensions to buy ? I would really appreciate it . Guess I will stitch on another project as there are always millions in the old stash. Thanks so much.

  30. Hi, Nicole,
    Miss you! I hope you take some good Pomegranate tea with lemon and read some of your new Kindle books and have some quiet moments to just rest in bed before Thanksgiving hits!!!
    Thinking of you and hoping we get to see you soon.
    Hugs, Deb
