I got two motifs finished up and now my eyes have had enough of 40 ct., so I may work on something else or just rest. I'm still not 100%, but I'm getting there. Thank you all for your very kind comments and well wishes! Write later! :)

Quaker Christmas
Ok, I've tweaked my rotation. I've decided to devote two days to bigger projects (Quaker Christmas and SoHRH) and one day to smaller projects (Garden Girl, Sweet Treats and Hanky Pysanky). We'll see how this goes. I'm so bad at sticking to a rotation! No matter how hard I try, the screaming rotation usually wins out. So today is day one of working on Quaker Christmas for this week.

This is looking so great Nicole! Love the color and the fabric :)
ReplyDeleteOooooo! So Pretty! Is it over 1 or over 2, please tell me it is over 2 on such tiny count. I have tried over 2 on 48 count and it was a no go. I love that floss, I see it is cranberry but what brand is it? I will have to get some of that, no doubt.
ReplyDeleteQuaker Christmas is looking great, so is SOHRH. What thread are you using for Shores? Hope you are feeling better are soon and don't you just love Mums!!!!
ReplyDeleteThat is looking really beautiful, Nicole! I love cranberry in all the silk brands!
ReplyDeleteYou've mentioned 40 count tiring you out lately. Think it's being under the weather or time for a vision check? Can't hurt.
Lovely colour and design.
ReplyDeleteI find just taking my projects in order but with no set time limit the best way, as an hour on one project can be a long time where as i can work on the next for three or four days quite happily.
That silk is truly droolworthy!
ReplyDeleteOooohhh!!! This is wonderful! Actually, all your works are soo beautiful! I visit your blog daily, and I am always delighted by your projects!
ReplyDeleteI am stitching a BlackBird Pincushion on a 40ct.linen too, and my eyes are desperate! In your previous post I noticed that you use a OTT-LITE lamp...is it a good help when stitching? Do you use also a magnifier? I use a "neck one", but it moves whenever I move a finger...and after some minutes it makes me feel sick...I am planning to purchase a "flexilen on base" one, hoping to feel more comfortable...
Monica, in Italy
QC is looking great! I love the colors!
ReplyDeleteHope you're feeling better. I've had the 'dreaded crud' too.
ReplyDeleteSo, to where in SC are you moving?
I am in Greer, between Greenville and Spartanburg. Oh to have a stitching friend close by.
This is a gorgeous piece so far. I absolutely love the colour you're using.
ReplyDeleteNicole,
ReplyDeleteIt's gorgeous! I love the colors you're using.
This is going to be one stunning piece Nicole!
ReplyDeleteLove your Quaker Christmas. I finally caved and ordered it yesterday. Not sure what fabric I'm going to use though.
ReplyDeleteQC is looking beautiful - love that thread you're using!
