I finished the orange kitty and Eve on Charlotte Clayton. I'm really loving this one! It's such a fun stitch.

Dorothy has been a little more difficult. The lightest pink had very little contrast with medium pink. I could barely tell them apart. The dyelots have obviously changed since Glenna and Laurie stitched their samplers. I switched it out for a NPI I had. It's not perfect, but it will have to do (since I tried just about every other pink silk in my stash). :)

I started The Scarlett House's "Mary Roe 1808" back in March, but didn't put it on my blog because I only had a little bit of the border stitched. I decided to get it back out and work on it some more. I love the colors in this sampler, they're so bright and pretty!!
I hope you all had a great weekend! I'll be finishing up packing this week. I really don't have too much more to do. Just a few dishes and then our linens and clothes.
Hope you're feeling better, Nicole. Love seeing your WIPs. They're all looking great! Bummer about the two pinks in Dorothy. It looks good whatever pink you chose.
ReplyDeleteI hope you'll be feeling better soon Nicole. All your WIPs look wonderful. I think the NPI pink works well for the border flowers.
ReplyDeleteI really like all the samplers you are working on.I like the colors in Mary Rowe too. I hope you feel better soon I'm just getting over a cold. Not fun.
ReplyDeleteI love the eyelets in Dorothy. And I think the two pinks you chose look nice. It's going to be so pretty!
ReplyDeleteFeel better. I love all your WIPs! I can't wait to watch them grow. I think the pink looks good too.
ReplyDeleteFeel better, Nicole!! If you stitch that well while sick - I'm impressed. Gorgeous cat!!

Lovely stitching. I hope you feel better soon.
ReplyDeletePretty samplers!!!! Hope you are feeling much better :-).
ReplyDeleteI hope that you're feeling Nicole. You know I have to tell you that I "hate" coming to your blog. Every time I do I see something that I just have to stitch. Dang - you're such an enabler. I wasn't all that into Charlotte, but now I think that I have to do her.....and Dorthy....and Mary!!!
ReplyDeleteI love looking at all the things you're working on! I agree with Deb; you're the queen of enabling, and we love you for it.
ReplyDeleteALL of your stitching is beautiful !! I'm still stitching away on Mary and loving every minute!!
ReplyDeleteFeel better soon Nicole! Love all that you are working on! Safe travels!
ReplyDeleteI loved seeing your wip's. You sure made some good progress on all of them and while you were not feeling chipper. Fancy a cup of tea? Feel better soon.
ReplyDeletesorry to read you are under the weather. Beautiful stitching.
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better soon! No fun being sick when you have to move of all things! As the kids get older you'll get fewer colds, something to look forward to with aging!
ReplyDeleteHope the hurricanes are not an issue for you.
I love all of the wip's but the kitty is wonderful. Feel better.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful stitching. I love the bright colors as well. Hope you feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear you caught a cold, but I always try to take advantage of that 'down' time to work on cross stitch as well. It helps that DH is especially helpful with the child, so I rarely have to do the stand-up-sit-down routine very often! Your samplers look lovely - hope you feel better!
ReplyDeleteHope you're feeling better :) Love the projects you're working on!
