Two Turtle Doves

Hello!  I have another day done on Plum Street's 12 Days of Christmas freebie.  

And I finished a line on Promise Me round #2.  The second line has been started and it seems to be stitching up much quicker the second time around.

Thanks for stopping by!  Happy Stitching!

Finish #2 for 2015

Hello!!

I finished this up yesterday and I love the colors!  They are all Mo's Sale silks in her Easter colors.  The brown is Bread, the green is Easter Grass, the pink is Cupcake and the purple/blue is Easter Egg.  And they are all still available for purchase in her shop.  

Refl-egg-tions 

Freebie found here (you have to seach Refl-egg-tions in the search bar to find it)

Stitched with Mo's Sale Silks

Another new start... this is becoming a habit

I broke down at stitching group last night and started Save The Stitches.  I didn't get much done because...

...we were learning how to make Dorset buttons.  I am so lucky to be part of a group of such talented people who are willing to share their knowledge with the rest of us.  If you are not a part of a stitching group you should see if there is one in your area, I can't promise they will be a good as the one I am a part of, but I promise you will have a good time!

This was fun to do but it took so long!!  There was a lot of thread to be wrapped around that ring.

 Another one of the members spent Christmas with her family, and there was a shop close by that sold tatting needles so she picked me up a set.  Can't wait to try these out!

And a little bit of progress on Hannah Lynn. I can't seem to get back into the grove on this one, but I need to because I would like to add at least 1 page to the SAL... it is not looking very good right now.

Hope everyone has a good day doing whatever makes you happy!  :)

A few little things

If you are somebody who likes doing Stitch-A-Longs (SALs), there is a group on facebook called Cross Stitch, It's fun!!! that you should join.  You do need a facebook account to join.   I think there is a SAL every month and maybe even 2 a month.  WonderfullyHopeless, who is a youtuber who makes stitching videos started the group and is really putting a lot of work into it to make it fun.  I am a member of other stitching groups and there are so many rules on what you can post, SALs, and pretty much everything that I am nervous to post anything in case I am breaking a rule, but this group is not like that.  Of course there are rules, like do not share copyrighted charts and don't be mean but that is just common sense stuff.  Anyway they are a really great group of people and I am really enjoying being a member.

And a little/big freebie.  BrookesBooksPublishing is offering a freebie Advent Animals.  Click on the picture of each animal to view the chart.  They are very cute and look like they would be quick to stitch up.  I think I might make them into tree ornaments and the kids could put one on the tree everyday until Christmas.
