Pincushion


My friend Kathy stitched this lovely pincushion given to us on our trip to Tulsa by BBD. She was sweet enough to include Kelly's and my initials on the little cushion.
I put the stitched piece together for her and did the crochet for the two pin tops.
Kelly and I are still working on ours. Kelly is ahead of me! Who in this world isn't ahead of me.....hard to tell!! For a while we didn't speak to Kathy because we were so envious of her speed, but we finally gave in! What can I say. she is Princess of Speed Stitching!

SCARF FOR ME


Schaeffer Yarn called Blossom. I am so in love with this yarn and unfortunately Jan tells me it has been discontinued! I used the entire skein and knitted the scarf 6 inches wide on 11 needles. Love love love the way it turned out! Will be wearing it with so much pleasure!

DMC Classics Roses Sampler


I purchased this sampler from Lisa at Frenchneedle a few years back. It is a challenge to myself to complete it in 2010. I love the roses but am not enjoying working on 28 count linen. It is too large a count for me but have to use it because I want a large piece. Can't wait to hang it above our bed!

This is a challenge to myself to complete stitching this piece in 2010. I love the roses. the problem is that I am aworking on 28 count linen which is too large a count for me but have to use it because I want a larger picture.
Lisa at Frenchneedle made this sampler available for me. I can't wait to complete it and hang it where it belongs....above our bed!

Paper Dolls


I bought this fabric to make a little throw for Laura then Sharon made a book. At this point I don't know what to do with it. I am not sure Laura will like either idea. I should make something and just keep it here for her to play with when she comes to visit. If I don't hurry, she'll outgrow it! The doll clothes can be put on and removed.

A scarf for someone special


A special scarf for someone special. Have no clue if it will please. Anyway, I tried. The string beside the scarf is how the yarn comes. Two stitches knitted where the string is on #13 needles. Not much fun to knit with yarn like that. If that is all I had, I'd give up knitting!
