Hello dear friends,
I bet you thought I forgot about you, but I haven't. Gosh, the last few months have really flown by. Between getting a new computer and figuring it all out and just being busy with family is the only reason why I haven't posted. I have been stitching a lot so here goes my finish parade for 2023.
Darth Vader by NikkiPatterns on Etsy. Finished on Nov 2, 2023. This is for my son, Blake. He loves Star Wars. Done on 14 ct Black Aida and Sulky 12wt threads.
Lucy Milton Sampler by The City Stitcher was completed on 11/28/23. I did this on 36 count linen but I don't love the small count fabric. I omitted some of the bottom part. I love this small little sampler.
Bill's nephew and wife were expecting their first child. It is a tradition that I stitch a Christmas ornament for the new baby of the family. This is my second one so far. My husband chose the pattern and I personalized it with her name, Pearl. It is called Gentle Glow by Gentle Pursuit Designs from the JCS 2023 ornament issue. Done with the scrap piece of 36 ct linen and various overdyed floss.
The last finish of 2023 was Patriot House by The Calico Confectionary from ETSY. I finished this on 12/11/2023. I really enjoyed stitching this pattern. 32ct linen and called for DMC.
I will come back later this week and post my finishes so far for 2024. I have 4. I really appreciate the support and comments.
I hope you have an amazing stitchy day.
Hugs,
Mary
Great finishes! I have been trying to use small bits of fabric and threads leftover from other projects to make ornaments also. I really like the LM sampler. The design and colors are very attractive!

So nice to see you back again and with some fantastic finishes! It's always a good feeling to get the gift stitching done🙂
ReplyDeleteLovely varied stitching to welcome us back! Darth Vader is amazing and the baby ornament is so sweet. Pearl is a lovely old fashioned name you don’t often hear nowadays.
