Liberty

I finally finished it! This is 'Liberty' by Little House Needleworks stitched on vintage buttercream 32 count linen with the called-for Crescent Colours floss. This is definitely one of my favorites!!

Still Stitching!

Almost done! This is Little House Needleworks 'Psalm 145', stitched on 32 count Lakeside 'Fawn'.

I have so many other projects to share, have taken lots of pictures and now can't find them. That's one of the pitfalls of having a shared camera. But I have my own now! By the way, I'm shopping for a really good photography app for iphone, any suggestions?
After this sampler is finished, I plan to pick up (hopefully!) my Jim Shore Harvest Trio, you know the pumpkin with 3 blackbirds stitched on banding.

A Few From Last Year

'Ho Ho Ho' by Amy Brueken Designs 'Toasty'- a Mill Hill kit designed by Debbie Mumm

'Don't Get Your Tinsel in a Tangle' by Lizzie Kate-I added metallic blending filament to the word tinsel and to the packages but you can't see it so well in the picture.


'Cappucino' by Little House Needleworks

'Bethlehem' by Imaginating-stitched with GAST 'deep sea' on Picture This Plus linen 'mercedes' sparkly

'Chilly' by Stitchy Kitty, from the 'Snowman Trio' pattern

'Land That I Love' by Bent Creek

Recent Finishes

'Home of a Needleworker Too' by Little House Needleworks-stitched with Crescent Colours on 28 count lambswool linen. I changed the green, but can't remember the name....maybe Spinach? Oh, I also changed the blue as I didn't care for the dirty looking blue color for my house, so changed to GAST 'dungarees'. Check dye lots if interested in doing the same thing-some dye lots of 'dungarees' have plenty of the dirty blue in them too.

This is 'Bunny Blossoms' by Full Circle Designs, stitched on 28 count Vintage Autumn Field linen. I used the DMC colors (model was stitched with GAST), because they were prettier and 'popped' more. The chart came with a little piece of WDW wool, which looks exactly like some regular cream colored wool, out of which I cut the cute bunny and blanket stitched him on.


Caffe Latte by Little House Needleworks, stitched on 40 count Lakeside Vintage Examplar linen with Belle Soie silks.

And hot off the ironing board!!!! is 'Where My Heart Blooms' by Blackbird Designs, stitched on 30 count R&R Korty's Special Blend with WDW and Crescent Colours. I changed WDW 'olive' to CC 'Joshua Tree'. And I changed the Shaker White to CC 'Khaki Mocha'.
I was determined to finish this sampler before starting anything new, and I'm so glad to have stuck with it. The house seemed to drag on forever...... Anyway, I have several WIPS (ufos) that I'm feeling guilty about and thinking I should give some attention to. The trouble is that I also have a lot of things I'd like to start. But I'm sure nobody else can relate to that. ;) I'll gather up all the WIPS in one place later on today for a reality check.
It's a really overcast day here today, so that's my excuse for bla pictures this time.

Well, I'm off to decide what to stitch on next.
