Another Week, Another Finish (#2 of 2 for today)

This is Blue Ribbon Designs "Beauty In Simplicity" stitched for the beautiful Oval Shaker Box (which I have!) made by the Canterbury Box Shop.  I stitched this one this past week, finishing it up yesterday evening.  I can't wait to get it "finished" - I'll post a picture of it again when I do.  I love this design and it didn't hurt that it was designed for a shaker box, which I adore as well.  The design is also available is a slightly different version to be framed if anyone is interested.  AND it comes with smalls that you can stitch & put in the box.  I might do those too... they're on my long & ever growing "list".  It's stitched on 32 ct Vintage Examplar from Lakeside using WDW floss (I did change one color - the flowers on the bottom are Red Pear instead of Bluecoat Red). 

I started a new project last night, so stay tuned............  not sure I can get it finished in a week, but I'm going to give it a try. 

Thanks for stopping by & happy stitching!!

A few finishes....

Believe it or not, I've been doing a little bit of stitching/sewing lately and below are a few of my finishes.  This is LHN's Joy To The World, one of my favorites by Diane.  I made it into a small pillow instead of an ornament.  I love this one! I've been wanting to do some embroidery "just because".  I found a pattern in a quilt shop during the Pals Fall Fling last month that had 8 or so little snowmen all done in red.  It doesn't get much better than that - so here are my first 4.  I haven't done any embroidery since childhood - it's fun!  And boy is it faster than stitching!   I did these 4 on Sunday & I think they're pretty cute if I do say so myself.  I have a few more traced onto fabric - some are for gifts - hope the recipients will like them! I do have a few other items stitched but they aren't finished yet, so I'll save them to show later. Thanks for stopping by! Happy stitching!!
