More Kind Fond Love

I worked on KFL a little bit yesterday. I actually stayed up way too late watching the Bachelor finale. How dumb!! Anyway, I got the words stitched and a tree and a dog? Or is it a cat? I can't tell. Here's the before and after....

I also made a little progress on HoHRH on Saturday that I forgot to share.

Here's the fabric I got at Amy's to go with Mouline Rouge. I think I'm going to use DMC 498 like Sharon (scroll down) did. Her finish turned out so pretty!

I had quite a bit of fabric leftover from the fat 1/2, so I decided to try to Vonna's Baking and Basting dyeing technique. I love how it turned out! I'm definitely going to use this technique again. Thanks Vonna for such great instructions!

I have also decided to join Paulette, Margaret and few others in a SAL. They have been stitching Scarlet Letter's "Ruth Bacheler 1717." I got the pattern a couple weeks ago. I'm planning on using 36 ct. Pearled Barley and DMC threads. I just love this one! It will be my first Reproduction Sampler!

Well, today is Titania Tuesday. I hope to make some more progress on her wings. Write later! :)



P.S. Thank you for all your very kind comments on Sea to Shining Sea!
