The past 3 weeks have been a blurrrrrrr.........so we are starting the New Year in thankful and positive ways......
Like this beautiful and precious gift I received last week when I needed it from a dear friend who is one of the most talented stitchers around.....and one I have talked about many times Nan! Just look at this unbelievable monogramed stocking......you really need to see it in person to appreciate the details and precise stitching that went into making it so gorgeous! When I can get some better photos I will show you the entire stocking and the contents inside, you won't believe it! Thank You Nan more than you will ever know at a time when I needed it and to see your face from a distance on the front porch.......
Last night I also got a text from another talented and sweet friend Jenn McGlon ( aka noodle and Lou) saying that she had comments on her IG account for the photo of my girls from her Doll Patterns she has designed........ Thank You Jenn........and I am anxiously waiting for the new one.........
Many of you have kept busy this past year stitching and thank goodness many talented teachers have offered classes......... I tried to keep up with a few projects and here is another one I did back in June from the French General......summer stitch camp......
then in late summer Charlotte Lyons offered another fun class:
Also from another one of Charlottes previous classes we made houses , from that I decided to make this little gingerbread house
These I have been working on for a couple of years and decided to pull them out a while back and do something with them......they are so much fun and you can continue to just keep adding new stitches and beads.......
This kind of brings me to the end for now I don't want to bore you....but hopefully the new year will bring more stitching projects and so thankful for the talented people who teach and provide us with inspiration to keep our fingers and minds busy while we are trying to overcome what we just did this past year ....... I know it has helped me.........thank you to all of you!
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL OF YOU AND THANKS FOR STOPPING BY MY BLOG.........LOVE TO ALL!
Imperial Blooms by Sue Spargo is the book I used for the bright colored blooms........
