I have been working on my "Sampler Stocking" for the past couple of days. I'm determined to get it finished up soon.
I was at Barnes and Noble the other day and found this book...
I really want to make this quilt....
The fabric used is Blackbird Designs "Harvest Home." It's so pretty! I really need to finish up my little table topper first though! ;)
Well, I'll be looking forward to sleeping in for the next few days. It's been a rough week. Matthew caught a cold and hasn't been sleeping well. He's finally getting over it, so it should be a good weekend. Write soon!
Nicole, I absolute love, love your stocking. I hope that you finish it soon. It's great! And I love that quilt from the Harvest Home book too! Hope Matthew is feeling better soon!
ReplyDeletethe stocking looks real close...is it?!?!! It is sure pretty! You are such a fast stitcher!!!
ReplyDeleteI hope Matthew feels lots better real soon & doesn't share with his siblings!!!
I cant wait to see your finished stocking!! I havent touched mine in months, cant decide if I want to restart with silks or continue with the dmc. Guess I better get Frederika done first, lol.
ReplyDeleteThe quilt is beautiful!
Oops ~ Hope Matthew gets well soon!

ReplyDeleteYour stocking looks fabulous! Can't wait to see it finished. I like that quilt. :) The fabric is so pretty. Hope Matthew is feeling better.
ReplyDeleteAfter stitching my first CHS stocking (Truth & Virtue), I've decided it definitely won't be my last. Your sampler stocking is fabulous. Those reds just POP! Guess I'd better add that one to my list.
ReplyDeleteThis stocking is amazing!! Fabulous!
ReplyDeleteYour stocking is SO pretty, Nicole. You can't have much more to do other than making it into the stocking itself, right? It looks so nice. The quilt book--gasp. I love the cover quilt, too!
ReplyDeleteI hope Matthew is feeling better soon! Enjoy your 'lie in', as they'd say here!
Your stocking's looking so lovely, Nicole. Lots of hours stitching with this one. :)
ReplyDeleteYour stocking is looking so pretty! And that quilt looks like it will be so pretty too. Don't you love all these patterns that are out for jelly rolls and layer cakes and charm packs, etc.? So handy! Hope Matthew is all better so you can both get some sleep!
ReplyDeleteLove your stocking Nicole! Keep going! I love those colors! I just bought my daughter a layer cake and jelly roll quilt pattern and fabric...I love it! I guess I really need to make a quilt for hubby and I and I love your choice! Hope you have a great weekend and that Matthew is up and going!
