After six-months of very sporadic stitching, I finally finished this last night.
The Beekeeper
Designer: Plum Street Samplers
Stitched on 35 ct. Natural Northern Cross linen
Fibers: Weeks Dye Works Over Dyed Cotton Floss
Stitched size: 6.5" x 9.25"
Normally this would not take very long to stitch but there were weeks where I did no stitching at all....so, it turned into a six–month project. My plan is to drop this off at the frame shop next week.
I did manage to stitch this little piece a few weeks ago in between stitching on The Beekeeper.
Friendship Quilts
Designer: JBW Designs, Sweet Nothings
Stitched on linen from my "stash" using DMC cotton floss
Stitched size: 3" x 3"
I modified the stitched piece. The pattern included a sentiment around the quilt blocks which I opted to leave off. I may finish this into a pincushion and give it to someone for Christmas.
I always get excited when I get close to finishing a design because that means I get to start something new! I started a new stitching project last night....but more about that in my next post.
What are you stitching??
Donna, I love The Beekeeper! It turned out really nice. Friendship quilts is a cute one as well. Looking forward to seeing your next piece.
