I just love the colors in this design. I can tell I'm going to have a lot of fun stitching this one! Well, I'm going to get stitching while Matthew is taking a nap! Write soon!
P.S. Thank you for all your very kind comments on Miss Lila! :)

My New Start Will Be....
Blackbird Designs "Beneath the Sunlit Sky." An oldie, but a goodie. :) I have had this pattern kitted ever since it came out (almost two years ago) and while searching for something new to stitch I came across it. I decided to use different fabric though. I had it kitted with Platinum Belfast and I decided to go with 32 ct. Purely Primitive by Silkweaver instead. I actually started a tiny bit last night, but had to rip it out because I started in the wrong spot. You'd think after all these years I would know where to start stitching! :)

Blackbird Designs is something I am really into right now too! I want to get the fabric and threads for Flowers for Sarah but I am thinking of making it into a wall hanging instead of a needlecase because it is too pretty to fold up into a needlecase. I too had to start over on my project, Small Tokens pin cushion yesterday. I love this choice you have made and look forward to seeing your progress!
ReplyDeleteThe colors on this one are so pretty! I'm looking forward to seeing your progress.
ReplyDeleteGood choice on the fabric for this, Nicole. Will enjoy seeing your progress.
ReplyDeleteI love the colors in this sampler a lot, and don't know why I haven't stitched it before. Maybe because it gets lost in the stash pile. Can't wait to see your start!
ReplyDeleteI love this design! Your colors are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteAh yes, definitely one of my BBD favourites. Can't wait!
ReplyDeleteI love this one and have stitched it. The real thing looks a lot better than the photo on the chart. It is one of my favourites. I hope you'll enjoy it too!
ReplyDeleteThose colors are gorgeous!!!!!! I'm so looking forward to see your progress.
ReplyDeleteI always love visiting your blog because you have great taste in patterns, and you always have such lovely linens and floss featured in your pictures. Great inspiration, as always!!
ReplyDeleteOoooh, I can not wait to see you stitch this one! Great design and great colors!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE BBD and especially this chart! What beautiful colors! I may have to write this one down and look for it the next time I'm at my CS store! I'm looking forward to seeing your progress. :)
ReplyDeleteThose colors are lovely, Nicole! I hope you're able to get lots of stitching time this weekend!
ReplyDeleteThis is exciting because I just bought this chart! I will love to follow along with you!!!! As you know I could look at your pictures and cross-stitch work all the livelong day!!!
ReplyDeleteAhh, Nicole, Everything you touch looks perfect. Perfect fabric, perfect threads, perfect stitching. You know, I don't know why I like you! ;-)
ReplyDeleteMay the new start treat you well now that you've found the right place.
Oh my I love Blackbird stuff! Can't wait to see this sampler come alive under your needle!
ReplyDeleteFYI: I ordered all the supplies for Miss Lila's House from the Attic just now...You are such an enabler!
i love this chart :-)
ReplyDeleteperfect stitch for this time of the year, don't you think?
I'll join with everyone else in saying how lovely this chart is. I'm sure you'll love stitching it and I look forward to watching your progress.
ReplyDeletePerfect time to start this design, Memorial Day weekend has always represented the beginning of Summer. Your fabric pick looks amazing with the colors. CJ ok;-)
ReplyDeleteI just love this design. I'm sure you'll stitch it up in no time! :)
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful colours!
ReplyDeleteOh, lookie there...another goodie! And it will be perfect on Purely Primitive ;)
ReplyDeleteGood Going you!
It will be gorgeous! I love this design, and someday I'll hopefully get to it. Your colors are fabulous!
ReplyDeleteThe colors are gorgeous! You have turbo needles ;-).
ReplyDeleteYour work is always very beautiful. May I ask something, I am wondering how many hours you stitch every day. I have just one son, a husband who is out of the house working long hours and I struggle to pick up my stitching once a week, and how long it take me to finish a project, well I don't like to say. You must have a secret, I would like to know, actually, I NEED to know!!!!!

I have this one kitted up too and I stitched up the house for a fair and square round recently. Good Luck! I will have to get mine out to stitch up too soon but right now I am working on From Sea to Shining Sea. Thanks for the inspiration.
