Two Samplers

An update on My Favourite Things by Drawn Thread.




This one is coming on well, I think it will be finished soon it is stitching up quickly. 

Next one is St. Peter's Fair by Shepherds Bush.




Not a good picture you cannot see the sun very well I will try and take a better picture next time.

I will work a bit on my Northern Lights sampler by Jeannette Douglas,  I will post an update on it in a couple of days.

Berries and Favourite Things


Another finish and a WIP.

Morning Berries is a Little House Needlework sampler.  I stitched it on linen band and it will look great with my Autumn stitching later in the year.




My WIP is My Favourite Things by The Drawn Thread.  It is one of three samplers I have as WIP at the moment and I am going to try and work on each of them every week.  The other ones in my sampler rotation are St. Peter's Fair by Shepherds Bush and The Northern Lights Sampler by Jeannette Douglas.

12 Houses



Another finish, one from Drawn Thread called 12 houses sampler.  I have had this in my stash for a long time along with a few other Drawn Tread charts.  I must try and stitch a few more of them this year.


I have some UFO's and I must try and finish a few of them up this year as well.  I say that every year but one year I might actually finish them all.  LOL

April already?



I cannot beleive it is April and I have not posted any finishes so far this year.  A lot going on at home and not much stitching but I have finished a few pieces.   I will post one of them today and try to make sure I post again in a few days.


Today's finish is Vintage Christmas from Country Cottage Needleworks.   Unfortunately I did not get this finished in time for Christmas but I will make it into a cushion for next year.
