This was a quick stitch! It took me about a week. Mostly because it was straight cross stitch and straight lines so it wasn't a lot of counting.
This was sort of a filler since my next sampler in rotation is another larger sampler. Although I have several smaller pieces in my stash and maybe I should start doing a big project, a small, a big, a small....something to ponder!
I also finished the two scarves, and can now mail the scarves and baby blankets mailed to the recepients.
I must finish my sewing kit from the Altoid tin. Tonight I spent an hour in Hancocks looking at ribbon and trim to finish it off. Must say, their selection is pretty slim. But I still managed to find some that I think will work.
One if these days I'll pull out the yarn I bought to make my mother a shawl. She seems to get chilly and it would be better than using one of the throws as a shawl.
I pulled out all my finished projects and I have 10 that are unframed. Hubby says I can take a few in for framing, but the difficulty will be, deciding which ones.
I have been incredibly fortunate and I don't have a lot of things I want, or for that matter need. I think the only thing I will put on my Christmas list is Michaels and 123 Stitch gift cards. Although a new easy to use digital camera would be nice.
With that I'm going to wish all Happy stitching for another week!
Congratulations on your finish of Karoline! She looks fabulous. I really like the pop of colors. Way to go on getting the scarves finished! So, will you start a big piece or pull another smaller piece? Looking forward to seeing what makes the framing cut!
