Gifted Gorgeousness November

 Well, today is the day we post things that have to do with gifts. I have been busy trying to get Christmas gifts done, which I can't share.

But this is going to be a gift for a friend. Hopefully. We will see.

I finished the third page which feels good. Christian Henry 1816 by Sassafras Samplers 

Squirrel!

 I finished my Stitched Stories piece so I decided I could start this guy.

Making X's

 Sometimes you just don't want to think. 

A New Start

 I love Avlea projects! I want to make some pillows for my house and realized I have this kit from Avlea.

I have found that I must enlarge the pattern and paste my fabric.

Not every 10 threads! No one has time for that! But a horizontal and vertical line along with diagonals. This gives me a reference point to make sure I don't make a mistake. At least in theory....I also need to mark the top. I like my x's to go in the same direction.

Lots of Letters

 I'm plugging away at this piece:

I'm ready for the bottom of this sampler which is full of specialty stitches.

I Did Finish Something

 

This is a little embroidery piece from Stitches Stories. A fun stitch and I highly recommend her kits.
