I also worked on "Love and Wisdom" a little bit on Friday. We are planning on going down to Florida sometime this week. I'm not exactly sure which day yet. This will be the last trip for the summer. The kids go back to school on August 18. I can't believe how fast this summer has flown by! Well, nothing much going on. I was thinking of taking the kids to Chick-Fil-A, so they could get out and play a little bit. Write soon!
Love that Finch!
ReplyDeleteIt's lovely Nicole - you can't go wrong with SB patterns.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your time in Florida.

This is such a pretty piece Nicole! My kids go back to school the 19th, it seems so early doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteLooking good! I really love this one. Your kids go back to school so early!
ReplyDeleteFinch is looking sweet.
ReplyDeleteWow how pretty!! This looks like so much fun to stith !! I love the colors too! I am working on my little bd gift and will post soon. I finally got into the doctor and am feeling so much more like stitching now. You inspire me with your beautiful stitching!!
ReplyDeleteLovely stitching - looking good.
ReplyDeleteComing along Nicole! You are such a fast stitcher and with three kids...you put all of us to shame! :)
ReplyDeleteBTW...here in Utah some school districts are year 'round school and 3/4ths of the elementary school kids went back to school today! My daughter teaches 4th grade and starts up again on August 17th after a six-week break. Every nine weeks she's off for three. Interesting huh? I'd like a 3-week paid vacation every 9 weeks!
ReplyDeleteI'm always amazed at how fast you stitch - I wish I could do that but I think I must be the slowest stitcher there is!!! Your Finch is really lovely!
ReplyDeleteThat looks great; I love the colors!
ReplyDeleteWow. This is sooooo pretty! Aunt Chrissy has been lusting over this one for a while, so I'll be sure to tease her that you've almost finished it! (Tee hee!)
ReplyDeleteGosh, when I was a kid, we had a summer that started the Friday before Memorial Day and ended the Tuesday after Labor Day. (Given the fact that I'm a box of rocks, though, perhaps the school year should have been much longer.)
This is really beautiful so far, loving all the greens. CJ ok;-) P.S. yes, Saturday is the first of August, unreal.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, Nicole! Those colors are beautiful but then all SB color schemes are so pretty to the eye.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your trip! School starts way early there - wow. After Labor Day here so we're still lazy bums in the morning for a good while to go. LOL

I love the borders on this one!! This Saturday I went to my LNS to buy the fabric for BTSS. Of course, they don't sell the one one I wanted (which is the same silkweaver you used), but she helped me pick out a similar style in another overdyed linen! The order has been made, and my fabric will arrive in a week (or two). Gosh, am I excited! This will be my first time using a non-solid fabric! I also got some of the fibers, but the others are coming in this week! I keep having to remind myself that patience is a virtue!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your Chick-fil-a lunch! :D
Oh, P.S. I showed Tawny (LNS owner) your site to show what the Silkweaver looked like, and she said, "Oh, Nicole! EVERYONE looks at Nicole's site because she she has so much beautiful work, and so regularly!" (or something close) So, I thought I'd tell you that you are popular even with the New Jersey crowd at "Where Victoria's Angels Stitch" (The LNS' name, JIC you don't know it. :P)
Your progress looks lovely! Hope you have a great trip. Really, the days just fly by~
ReplyDeleteLooks great Nicole...you are sure a fast stitcher. I love the patterns you choose. pj
ReplyDeleteGreat progress!
ReplyDeleteSee...its so gonna be done in the next day :)
ReplyDeleteLove it, love it, Nicole!!! Can't wait to see it in real life. I have to see you this time when you're down...please!!! Call me or email...
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Deb
Finch song is so pretty - guess I'm gonna have to add that one to my pile of must do's!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love Finch Song. It's so pretty!
ReplyDeleteOMG, love it! I have a tiny start on mine :-).

Nicole,
ReplyDeleteYour work is beautiful. I just found your blog from the comment you left on Down Sunshine Lane about the Rolaframe. I'm a Q-snap user .. what is the benefit to the rolaframe? Is is hard to use? What size would you recommend someone starting with?
Thanks for taking the time, if you can, to answer my questions.
Michelle
Beautiful progress!
ReplyDeleteAdorable stitch!
ReplyDeleteLove the Finch. I can't believe your kids go back to school so quickly! I wish mine did LOL!
ReplyDeletej'aime beaucoup, c'est très beau,

ReplyDeleteLove the Riddle! I have had it in my stash for quite a while, but thanks to you, I've kitted it up. Hurry home from Florida to show us what you've been up to! We miss your posts!
ReplyDeleteOh, it's absolutely stunning! It's been years since I've stitched an SB!
