A finish and a silly cat!

I did have a finish recently. I stitched Linda's Ort Bag by Victoria Sampler


There are 4 pieces. It is stitced on pink Cashel linen using the thread pack from VS, which included silks, pearl cotton, and Kreinik metallic. It was a fun and fairly easy stitch.


Some of the stitches used were diagonal cable, satin, eyelets, long arm cross, and detached buttonhole

The fine at the top was a PITA to stitch though! But I like the way it turned out. I hope I can finish finish it soon!

This is my mom's cat, Peyton, being silly.


I will be moving and renaming my blog, but will post it here when I do. I hope you'll join me!

A finish

Hello! I hope everyone in the US is keeping cool. It's 10:45 p.m. here in Indiana and our heat index is still at 90 or higher! Good weather to stay in and stitch or bead or crochet!

With all of the events in the last several months and moving in with mom, I needed something easy and simple to stitch. I finished this about a week ago I think it was. Home of a Needleworker by LHN. I used white New Castle linen with the recommended DMC threads. I like the way it turned out! And it was an easy stitch! Sorry the picture isn't any better. I didn't want to iron it just yet.

Now that things are settling down, I've gotten some of my more detailed stitching out. I am working on Linda's Ort Bag by Victoria's Sampler and Beside Still Waters, a Thomas Kinkade piece by Candamar Designs. I've been working on that for.....well, a long time!

Stay cool and be safe!

Challenge and new starts

This is the piece that I am concentrating on - for the time being :-) Rose Garden Mandala by Chatelaine.

This is one of the 2 I started over the weekend. This one is Victorian Sampler Bag by Rae Iverson of Moss Creek Designs. It's 1 over 1 on Cashel linen for the flowers. It has a lot of specialty stitches also. This also is a fun stitch.


And this one I am doing as a SAL with another Hoosier Stitcher. White Christmas by Victoria's Sampler. Yet another fun stitch!
