The red house and red flower are the ones I completed.
The whole thing!
Edited to add - I had a couple people ask about the fabric I'm using for the Game Board Sampler - It's 28 ct. Light Mocha Cashel.
Saturday I went up to MIL's house and went stitching at JoAnne Nantz's. So I took my Saturday Project with me - Shepherd's Bush My Earth and I got quite a bit of stitching done on it! :)
I used Cindy's lettering for the My Earth words, and I'm very happy with it! While I was at JoAnne's shop I picked up the new Country Cottage Needleworks design and some threads to stitch it...
Spring Violets
And the other day I stopped at Alex-Paras Needlearts to get some Needle Necessities in Very Berry (103) because I saw that Nancy was using it stitch her Quaker Samplings. I definitely want to do one in that color (sorry Nancy for being a copy cat!). I also got a few spools of Kreinik to stitch Petal Fairy and some magnets and a bag. :)
That shop is just amazing. It's mostly needlepoint (they have a tiny selection of cross stitch), but they have just about every thread imaginable. It's heaven just to walk in there. Well, not much else - today is Sunflower Bellpull, so we'll see how much I can get done on that! :) Write later!
You are making great progress on all of your projects Nicole!
ReplyDeleteThe game board is looking lovely :) Great progress! And that Very Berry thread looks lovely - such a pretty colour :)
ReplyDeleteIt is fantastic that the rotation is working for you! Don't you feel so much more productive now?
ReplyDeleteHi Nicole, Your game board and 'my earth' are both looking gorgeous! I have the supplies for the gameboard, I just need to find the time to get the fabric on some rods and get it started. Glad to hear that the rotation is working for you, you look as though you are powering through the game board! :-) Thanks for the message you left on my blog, I appreciate it! Jackie x
ReplyDeleteLovely progress on your gameboard Nicole!
ReplyDeleteGreat progress! And your SB looks gorgeous :)
ReplyDeleteYour Game Board sampler is moving along so quickly. Looks great.
ReplyDeleteYour WIP's look great, Nicole. And congrats for starting a rotation system. It can be easy to let too many WIP's get out of control. This way you definitely get a sense of accomplishment with them.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad your rotation is working for you! Mine is the screaming kind... whichever project screams the loudest! I need to find a better plan.
ReplyDeleteHugs...
You have some beautiful WIPs! And you have a great rotation plan I think also. I loved the picture of your little boy. Such a doll!
ReplyDeleteSo far a rotation is working for me too! I feel like I am actually seeing some good progress on my pieces (Carol was my inspiration too!). Your Gameboard and My Earth both look amazing. Great progress!
ReplyDeleteHey Nicole - Love the Gameboard. The colors are really popping on the fabric. What are you stitching it on ??
