I've been busy...

working on charts for the upcoming Counted Wishes Festival. I've completed a Christmas Sampler, Christmas orny, Halloween orny, working on a 'Quaker' type sampler, and stitching a model of a typical Blueladie Designs sampler. Phew!!! I sure am busy trying to come up with some wonderful designs for y'all. :D

FYI

There won't be any stitching updates for a while because I'm working on model stitching one of my own designs (Blueladie Designs) for the Counted Wishes Festival. Thanks for stopping by, though. Hope you got the freebie that was posted previously. :)

Stitching Update

Hi all,
I hope your Easter is truly a blessed one.

I have been working on designs for the September Counted Wishes Festival. So far I have one finished and am working on the second.

Here's what I'm stitching on to date:

This piece I am working on to remember my sweet Wolfgang. He was 19 when he died and he was with me all of those years. I plan on just stitching the cat and his name, birth year and death:

This is Maryse Dupont's 2011 SAL. So far I am up-to-date with it: (the sweet pincushion was a prize I won in Mouse's Birthday giveaway. I LOVE it! Her stitching is divine! :)

An update on Little House Needlework's Sunflower Inn.

I am working on the 1st square of Carriage House Sampling's Christmas at Hawk Run Hollow:
