I just have to stitch the sheep and a few more motifs! I've definitely been bitten by the Shepherd's Bush bug - I'm thinking of stitching this one next...
It's "Sail Away." I thought I had lost the kit. I looked everywhere for it yesterday. I mean everywhere! I finally found in my pantry, in a basket with mostly magazines and some yarn. How crazy is that? Anyway, I'm so glad I found it. I just love this one. :) Write soon!
I really, really love this Family Sampler. And your stitching is so fab. Did you mark up the original chart? If not, would you be willing to sell the chart to me? I could sub my own threads for it.
ReplyDeleteAnd where did you get the Shepherd's Bush heart-shaped thread holder? Does it come in the kit? I'd love to have one of those.
Oh it's gorgeous Nicole! I really love this piece~~the fabric and floss colors are so beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteI am in love with Sail away. That will be a wonderful design for you to stitch next.

Beautiful work. Love your photography.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, it is too pretty!! It really is beautiful. I love Sail Away as well--I think it's one of my favorites. It reminds me of my daughter, going off to college, when I swear she was just a little kid a second ago. Time goes too quickly! Your stitching is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteLOVE IT!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou're flying through it as always and it gorgeous :)
That looks amazing. Your needle must really be smoking.
ReplyDeleteIts lovely Nicole, what a great job you are doing with it. Are you going to personalize it with the boys names and DH? That would be spectacular

You're just flying through this one and will have it done by tomorrow (or tonight) I'm sure. Looking forward to seeing Sail Away.
ReplyDeleteVery nice! Will you get the Jill Rensel mats for it? My house isn't in pinks and purples...but the Rensel mats are so pretty...it just might happen :)
ReplyDeleteThis is so sweet Nicole!
ReplyDeleteGreat progress Nicole. You take the most beautiful pictures of your stitching.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe how quickly you have stitched this one. I love it!
ReplyDeleteI love the Family Sampler, you work is beautiful. I have also been bitten by the Shepherds Bush bug. I just got Sail Away for my birthday. Haven't started it yet, but it is right next to me. I have spent a lot of my time lately quilting. I think you have motivated me back to some evening cross stitching!
ReplyDeleteTFS is beautiful. Congratulation on a love piece.
ReplyDeleteAfter seeing your pictures and Melissa's I think I'm hooked - I might have to get this one!
ReplyDeleteyou really are almost done. Can't wait to see the finish. I also have a few SB pieces that i have kitted up and they call my name.
ReplyDeleteYou have made such beautiful progress! I am looking forward to seeing it finished! I also love the new project! Can not wait to see your progress on it!
ReplyDeleteIt is so beautiful Nicole, I love how it is coming together. Sail Away is one of my favorites, even though I am not really a sea girl.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! You are such a fast stitcher!!!!! You always amaze me!!!!
ReplyDeleteHow exciting that you've nearly finished FS. It's so pretty and I like the rose on it.
ReplyDeleteI'll be interested to see you work on Sail Away because I'm still undecided about whether I like this one or not.
Love the new header too, Nicole. Such a beautiful picture of the SB fob.
SB is one of my faves, also. I like the way you put the symbol on the thread holder...I always write out the thread number out. Debra in NC.
ReplyDeleteWow, you're doing really well with your Family Sampler, it's beautiful! I hope mine looks as good when I'm done! I love Sail Away too.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you found it! Family Sampler is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThis is turning out to be so pretty, I really like it.
ReplyDeleteSail Away is probably going to be my next start too. I pulled it out last week and I remembered how much I like that design.
Great progress, Family Sampler is looking gorgeous
