More HOA!

Is it Friday yet?? Or June?? I'm ready for summer! I have been stitching a little bit. Not as much because I went to my class last night. I'm really not sure if I'm learning anything. I think I might be, but it just hasn't sunk in yet. It's a lot to take in. I still think it's 80% lighting, maybe more. Lighting makes all the difference. Anyway, here's my progress pic...

And I got a little package from Handcrafts Online yesterday.

It's Sweet Treats Block #3 - Tart. I can't wait to get started on it. I love the colors! :)

Melody did get in touch with me. She was on vacation! :) We got it all straightened out and I'll be sending her package to her today!

Write Later!

  1. Heart of America looks so beautiful! And what fun to get goodies in the mail! I hope to do both of these designs some day. Glad to hear Melody got a hold of you to claim her prize, too.

  3. Wow you sure have lots done on Heart of America and it is really pretty!! I love sweet treats too. I need to get cupcake and tart too. My LNS doesn't have those so I need to try and order them with all the thread and cute buttons. I almost have block 4 on SOHRH done. I haven't gotten as much stitching done this week. Gotta get in gear I guess. Debby

  7. HOA is looking great.

    I'm doing a Diploma in Photography at the moment, I thought I'd be sailing through (I've been taking photos since I was a kid) - but it's quite a lot more technical than I realised. Good luck with yours!

  9. I'm loving your progress pics on HOA Nicole! I agree lighting is key when taking photos, though you seem to get plenty of good lighting where you are.

    I've caved in and have ordered the first two installments of Sweet Treats after seeing your stitching updates on this one :)
