A Little Stitching and an Early Present!

I decided to start Margaret Cottam after I finished Mary Roe. I only stitched a little bit because I wasn't sure if I was liking the linen I chose for it. It's much lighter than the called for linen.

After stitching a motif, I think I'm going to like it. I also worked on Ann Priest a little bit...

My early birthday/Christmas present is the new iPad. My kids had pretty much taken over my old iPad and I really missed having one all to myself. So my very sweet dh took me shopping today. My birthday is still weeks away, but I wanted something for when I go to Myrtle Beach. I'm so happy with it!

Speaking of Myrtle Beach - I leave in only six days now! I can't wait!!

New Start

I ordered "Ann Priest 1841" from Tanya (The Scarlett House) and I received it the other day.  I couldn't resist starting it right away!

I love how the Gentle Art threads are looking on the Vintage Pecan Butter, which I got from Down Sunshine Lane.  It's definitely one of my favorite linen colors.
