A different direction

Hello my friends,
time for a visit like this tiny hedge-hog.


A closeup then out in the garden he went.


I was unwell a few days last week so no post.
My Wednesday stitching was only small.
Hopefully I get more progress tonight.


`Natures Journey` SAL part one.
I have worked out most of my colours now
and pleased with the first blocks.


For more of my post on this follow the SAL blog
down my side bar.
Thankyou for visiting.
Happy Stitching,
Clare.

Wednesday night Stitching

Hello my friends.
Last night I stitched my
`Quaker Christmas 11`.
I was up till midnight but pleased with my progress. 


For the month of February the letter
`E`
of the Christmas bunting.


Because I am working on lots this month I
thought this doll would be my `Birthday Month `
project.
I brought the kit and will post about her again at the end of the month.


The fabric in the background is part of
`Natures Journey` SAL.
I have a little more to complete on this plus
a few more fabrics to add.
I will be ready to show next week.
Hubby`s car windows where down so
Miss Tilly thought she would climb in.
I do not think she was wanting a ride!


Thank you for taking time to visit.
Happy Stitching,
Clare.

Projects

Hello my friends.
As my younger sister is caring for our Mum 
this weekend I have time for a visit with you.
I finished my `Christmas Wishes` cushion.


So pleased with this and have put it away 
with my other Christmas decorations.


Fabrics nearly sorted to start `Nature`s Journey` SAL.


I have been waiting on my Sampler Threads.
They came a few days ago so made a start last night.
`Quaker Christmas 11
Songs of the Season`
Using suggested threads
Sampler Thread : Currant and Blue Spruce.
This will be my Wednesday night stitching from now on.


One of my sisters and I are stitching 
Rosaline Quinlan`s `Christmas Bunting` a letter each month.
They are on pre-printed linen.
This is the first chance that I`ve had to show January`s
letter `M` two of these. I have one `E` this month.
I am using DMC 815.
More progress on this later in the month.
Look where `Miss Tilly` climbed too!


Miis Tilly is this a drink?


No play time.


Well time to go.
Thankyou for visiting.
Happy Stitching,
Clare.
