Climbing Rose Cottage

Well what has happened to Spring? The weather was lovely here last week and on Monday it changed. We had heavy rain, strong winds and the wind had such a chill in it. It's not been much better the last few days and they say we may even have winter showers by Saturday.
I have stitched one of the cottages from Elizabeth designs, Climbing Rose Cottage. I have a few of these cottage charts so a few more may be stitched in the near future.
I am in a sampler mood at the moment and I am stitching one of Just Nan's samplers called 'Follow The Needle'

Snow, Spring and the Sea




Three more cute finishes all from SanMan Originals. First is the Cup of Winter


This one has not scanned very well it is a lot nicer in RL.

Next is Spring Tuck.

I love tucks they are a great way to finish small pieces of stitching.

Last one today is Ocean

This one came with the frame and will go in my bathroom.

Thank you all for visiting and thank you for the comments you have left.

All Hearts Buzz

Just a quick post to show you my two latest finishes.
The first is All Hearts by Elizabeth Designs, this will be made into an ornament.


The second is another of Sandy's tuck's. This one is called Buzz and is from the February newsletter.

Not sure what I am going to stitch next, off to have a look.

Cocoa, Marshmallows and a Woof

Long time no post but I have been stitching. I will show you a couple and post again tomorrow with the rest. Oops forgot to scan them back in a second.

Cocoa and Marshmallows by SanMan Originals (member's only chart). I was not going to stitch this yet but I keep seeing it stitched by other people and gave in. I am going to frame it for the kitchen.

Woof another cute tuck by Sandy (SanMan member's only chart). As soon as this arrived I just had to stitch it.
A few more photo's of places we like to visit in our area. These two are of Dover Castle, Jack's favourite place to visit. Tom is not so keen to much walking he says. LOL He prefers Walmer or Deal Castle. Here is some information about Dover Castle.
