Finish:
Out on a Limb by Scattered Seeds Samplers
This is the first of the Scattered Seeds club projects. It was a nice stitch, but I don't think I will make a pin keep. Not sure how I will finish. I will probably wait to see the other pieces this year to make a decision. That is the fabric that came in the kit for finishing, by the way.
Oh heck, I see a mistake.....lets just say it is a "customization". I don't like stitching words so I left off the "Little" that is supposed to go at the top on purpose.
New Start:
Hanna Longstreth by Queenstown Samplers
May 1, 2020
This is a Stitch a Long with Gary and Vonna of Fibertalk. I wanted to do a silk project and when I learned that all the proceeds are going toward the medical school expenses of the designers Great Niece who is related to and is named Hannah Longstreth....well, what can I say.
The challenge for me with this piece is that is is on 45 count linen....hello magnifiers...and the motifs are spread out with nothin in between....hello gridding.
Progress:
Coffee Quaker by Heartstrings Samplery
Not sure why this is taking so long. I make alot of mistakes and need to do the gridding for some of the upcoming motifs to try to mitigate some of that.
Isabella Uffindel by Hands Across the Sea
Page 3 is complete....starting page 4 this week.
Vintage Birds by Jeannette Douglas
I am really enjoying this....the letters are very nice and the colors are beautiful. Am waiting for one of the colors (Loganberry).
Elizabeth Jones by La D Da
I am not enjoying this, so may take it off the frame and put it in time out for a while. It is not the fabric (although I don't like the fabric) but I just cannot seem to get into the groove so it needs a rest.
I think the photo coming out so wierd is a sign! HA
The Library by Litte House Needleworks
Trying to work on this for Sampler Sunday, but it is going slowly. Am using it to practice a couple of techniques so I am not whipping through it.
I am getting a little bogged down I think so I am going to pull some smaller seasonal projects that I can work on.
All the photos seem a little wonky today but I am sure you get the idea! Will show ou what I choose to start next week.
Thank for visiting.
Stay safe, stay well.
Lovely work on all your samplers. The wren is very sweet, a nice design for Spring.
ReplyDeleteYou have alot of large projects on the go but at least you are making progress on them. It's nice to have a smaller project like your Wren finish to work on as well.
ReplyDeleteGreat finish and progress! I'm looking forward to seeing your new start.
