Kindred Spirits

I worked on "Kind Fond Love" for a little bit and then I got bored (that's been happening a lot lately). So I decided to restart an old project I had started last year. The Primitive Needle's "Kindred Spirits."

First here is the little bit of progress I got on KFL...

Kind Fond Love Sampler
40 ct. Vintage Light Examplar, DMC (1 over 2).

And here is my "Kindred Spirits" start...

Kindred Spirits
36 ct. Days Gone By Silkweaver Linen, Belle Soie silks - Noir, Kiwi, and Lasagne (1 over 2).

I'm loving it so far! I was not happy with the fabric I was using before, and I'm much happier now that I'm using the recommended fabric.

The weather has finally cooled down here in South Carolina. It's been such a hot summer and it's such a relief to go outside and not have it so hot and humid that I can barely breathe. I have the windows open and the air off. It's so nice to hear the birds singing and feel a cool breeze! Well, nothing else going on here. Maybe I'll get out and enjoy this beautiful weather while it lasts! Write soon!

    KFL makes me happy and yours is so pretty! I finally ordered the chart, linen and some of the silks so I can start it soon.

    Kindred Spirits is too cute - I love the border. It does look great on that fabric.

    Glad it is getting cooler in SC. Today is my first fallish day here in central GA. Enjoy!

    That Kindred Spirits is just taking my breath away on that Days Gone By; I've been thinking that might be the next silkweaver I try for a while now.

    Nicole - both of these are wonderful WIPs and I always love the fabric that you choose for your projects! Kindred Spirits is so cute, but I like the other one just as well.

    It's gotten cooler here in Michigan too - the furnace is running quite a bit! I love the Fall, but am not sure I love what comes after!!

    Both are beautiful, Nicole! I have KFL started too, but since it's over one, I haven't touched it in a while. Sigh....
