Well, the kids are off school today, so we are just hanging out and relaxing! We may go to the grocery store later - so exciting! :) I'm trying to decide what I want to stitch tonight - maybe my nephew's sampler? I really should get back to it! Write later!
Edited to add... I almost forgot! I also worked on "This is the Day" the other night. I finished the numbers and started filling in the white around them.

WMN is looking great. I love that gold color.... Yes the baby's sampler ...I am really looking forward to more progress pictures. This design is so sweet.
ReplyDeleteTake Care

Wow, great progress on both. The colors are so rich...I just love them!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love With my Needle...I bought the Goode Huswife book #1 because of you :)
ReplyDeleteAnd your houses are looking DIVINE!
Hi Nicole:
ReplyDeleteI just can'believe how much you get stitched. I am still trying to finish up block 5 of SOHRH and already you have another block done plus even more. Both of these are beautiful and I love them! Your stitching is gorgeous!
Congratulations on finishing your third block, Nicole - it's beautiful - I love the pattern at the bottom.
ReplyDeleteYou're making great progress on your other pieces, too!
Have a wonderful weekend!
Congrats on finishing the third block! All of your projects are coming along beautifully!
ReplyDeleteWMN is looking great! You are one amazing stitcher; I can't believe how fast you are !
ReplyDeleteYou crack me up! :-) Both look great. I'm tracking down the Goode Huswife book, I LOVE that sampler.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, love the color of your QC. What count fabby is that?
ReplyDeleteYour stitching always looks great and the designs are always fabulous. I am going to start VOHRH and am wondering if I should go with NPI silks. I have to go check out margie's blog. Your photo's alway show fantastic color.
Absolutely gorgoeus stitching, Nicole :)
ReplyDeleteHave fun at Amy's...one of these days I'll be there too :)
Wow. You rock! I love your WMN... I haven't been all that pushed on this until I've seen your WIP pics and now think I'm going to cave and stitch it. Love your HoHRH! I can't believe how much progress you've made on your, erm, TitD, too! ;) You're going to have several sampler walls before you know it!
ReplyDeleteThey both look totally wonderful. I didn't know what you were using for HOHRH and you are right they both look very different. I am going to be using Vikki Clayton's silks as soon as they arrive. I can't wait! Lots of Love Patti xxx
ReplyDeleteSuch a busy little bee you are Nicole, hopping from WIP to WIP. :) All your projects are looking so gorgeous! Enjoy your weekend!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful progress on all !
ReplyDeleteOh my, they all look terrific, Nicole! Congrats on completing that square. And I adore your With My Needle, I am going to have to acquire that chart!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Progress on all of your Projects...they are all so very pretty too.
ReplyDeleteTake care & Happy Stitching
Love all your projects -- the WMN is my current favorite. :D
ReplyDeleteBea-u-ti-ful! All of them!
ReplyDeleteWonderful progress on both pieces!!!!! Your photos always look so sharp!!! It really makes the colors pop~
ReplyDeleteGreat wips Nicole, your needle has been busy this week.
ReplyDeleteso wonderful:)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I love the colors you are using on This is the Day! The HoHRH and WMN are both pretty, too.
ReplyDeleteWonderful progress on your WIP's! They are looking just amazing!
ReplyDeleteYour WIPs look terrific. You have been stitching up a storm on them.
ReplyDeleteI also stitch my Houses with DMC and have often noticed how different it looks than the ones stitched with NPI silks or with HDF silks. It's always amazing to me how much the choice of threads can change the impression of a piece.
Nicole, I just love your photos. There is a quality to them that is just brilliant. Your Houses is really inspiring me to seriously get going on mine. So I thank you for that! All of your work is just drop-dead gorgeous!
