And this was Tuesday...
40 ct. Vintage Pecan Butter, AVAS threads
I decided to take a little break from eyelets to start something small - May Word Play. Here are the beautiful threads on the linen.
This was my progress as of yesterday...
40 ct. Vintage Examplar, GAST threads (1 over 2)
Today, I let the boys play hooky and I took them up to Myrtle Beach to see their grandma and great aunt and to swim in the hotel/condo pool. Check out this view! It was a beautiful day, but very hot! Thankfully, there were some indoor pools too!
I hope to get the May Word Play finished up soon and then get started on June (and get back to those eyelets too)!
Beautiful stitches!! How fun to have a special play day!!

ReplyDeleteLooking great Nicole - Pecan Butter is one of my favorite Lakeside Linens. I have bought all the Wordplays and fibers but not had time to start one yet. They are so cute, wonder how you plan on finishing yours.
