Garden Pleasures Finished!

I got it finished up this morning! It feels so good to actually get something finished. I think that Queen Anne's Lace was starting to get me down a little. I love working on it, but it's also good to have some little finishes every now and then!




Little House Needleworks "Garden Pleasures"
Fabric: 25 ct. Lambswool Jobelan (1x1)
Threads: DMC, Crescent Colours, and GAST

Julianne left a comment a couple weeks ago wondering if I'd finished my Pomegranate Sampler. I hadn't. I only had two sides of border left to do, so I decided to get it out today. I took it with me to stitch in the car on the way to my in-laws. I managed to get all the green in the border done and now I just have to stitch the pomegranates. I'm looking forward to getting it finished now! :) I'll take a pic tomorrow! Write later!

A Little Finish

On impulse I decided to stitch Tanya's new Sampler Girl freebie "Tea with Jane." It was a very quick and fun stitch!



I found some fabric that matches perfectly to make a little pillow. I used Crescent Colors Wavy Navy, Blue Moon, and Cocoa Bean. The fabric is 32 ct. Country French linen in Latte I think.

I also worked on "Garden Pleasures" a little bit. I got the girl finished last night.



Thank you all for the very kind comments on my "Ashley" fob. It was fun to make and I love using it! :) Susan asked if I make the fobs to sell and the answer is yes! I have a couple listed in my sale/trade blog. I need to add some more! :) Well, the kids are wanting me to play with them! Write later!

A Tiny New Start!

I was inspired by Anita's very cute LHN "Garden Pleasures" pinkeep that I decided to start it this weekend also! I'm stitching it over one on 25 ct. Lambswool Jobelan. I'm liking it so far! :)



I don't have much done yet, just the border. I hope to get more finished tonight! I feel like I'm finally coming out of my slump. My excitement for my stitching has returned! :) I went to a couple of Joann's this weekend looking for the new Ashley Ginghers and I finally found them! I was so excited! I made a fob to match last night!





I had originally made an all purple fob, but decided I wanted a little pink to liven it up some! :) Well, Matthew is fussing, so I'd better go! Write later! :)
