Finishes and stash

 Hello again!  I have some stash and a couple of finishes to show. 

Hope Song by Heartstring Samplery

Christmas Snowfall Biscornu by Just Nan, Chubby Bee by Jeannette Douglas, Fourth of July Rules by Primrose Cottage, Owlvira's Frightful House by Just Nan, and some linen.


Harvest Tiny Town, Frosty Tiny Town, Any Tiny Town, More Any Town Tiny Town, Seaside Tiny Town, and Patriotic Tiny Town, all by Heart in Hand Needleart.  Christmas Eve Mouse and Rose Heart Bunny by Just Nan.  The Queen Bee by October House Fiber Arts.

I knew I had some more!

One of the Tiny Town's that I thought was in the other pile.  Bees in the Greenhouse by the Blue Flower, Christmas Countdown by Erica Michaels, more linen, the 2023 JCS Christmas Ornament issue, Hardanger Filling Stitches by Yvette Stanton, Songbird Serenade by Counting Puddles.


Needle Travel.  Lists all of the known shops in each state and their locations.  Lists quilt, yarn, embroidery, cross stich, needlepoint, spinning, and weaving shops. I hope to put it to good use!



Timely Trinkets November Edition by Joseph's Workshop.  I finished this one.  

I was not impressed by the kit.  The linen was cut wonky and not serged.  The kit included a size 24 needle which was way too big for 32 count linen.  For the price I paid, it should have been nicer.  I probably won't buy another, even though they are adorable.  The above gets finished to go in the little box 2 pictures up.  Oh, and there are no finishing instructions included in the kit and the chart was very hard to read.  

Whew!  That's a lot of stash!  I think that should hold me for a bit.  Maybe.....

See you soon!

Eeek! A mouse!

 A Just Nan mouse that is 😛


Sitting on a little tin
And inside the tin is the tiniest little needlebook with a bee charm.  So cute!

November 1 was my birthday, so I started a new project.  Faith by AuryTM

It is being stitched on 28 cream/gold evenweave with DMC floss.  Pictures don't do it justice!  I've seen this stitched up and it is gorgeous!  

Kody and Cooper say woof!  

Happy Thanksgiving if I don't get back before.

Queen of the Needle

 I had SO MUCH FUN stitching and assembling these1











The octagon box is Still Queen of The Needle by Just Nan and the mouse is Queen of the Needle.  I love the way they turned out!

Working on Renaissance Rose by Joan Elliott.





This one is fun to work on too!

Bought an Ott Lite floor stand light.  Got it on sale for $82!  Normally, they are between $150 and $200.  Forgot to get a picture though.

Stay safe everyone and keep stitching!

Stitching

 I forgot to share my latest finish.  By Just Nan.  Actually, 1 stitching finish and 1 fully finished.






The above will eventually be a scissor roll.








The above was SO much fun to stitch!


The bottom bracelet is new, made with 3 mm topaz crystals and 15/0 permanent finish gold seed beads.  Just wanted to show them all again.  Working on Still Queen of the Needle!

Happy holidays!

Another mouse!

 These are SO much fun!  This is Summer Mouse and she has a scissor roll that I am still stitching.


I think I made the skein of floss a little too big.  Oh well.  I like her!

Stash and start-itis

Birch bark and blue - Bernat Pop.  I bought 7 skeins that were on sale $2.49 each
 Starts - on the frame is Ella The Frog Princess by Mirabilia.  Below that on the left is some stash, 32 ct. Blue Spruce linen and 32 ct raw Opalescent.  Next to that is the start of Welcome Summer bt the Drawn Thread and below that is Summer Mouse Scissor Roll by Just Nan.
 Had a Hoosier Stitcher get together yesterday at Fancy Works in Bloomington, Indiana and here is what I got there.  The fabric is French Lace and Raw Natural, both 32 count.
I also have some bead stash, but put it up before I could get pictures.

Mom is hanging in there.  Still doesn't remember or believe what happened.  She wants to come home, but is in no condition to do that.

Stay cool, everyone!
