I just about forgot I was supposed to post photos of my Turtle Trot stitching! I just worked on two WIPs. Right below is Thee I Love from an old issue of JCS (see my sidebar at Turtle Trot 2013 to see date of magazine). The stitching is a little difficult as there are several shades of green that has me changing needles constantly. The color of the fabric is actually a light green and the flowers are white! Don't know what happened here! The bottom one is Winter House Sampler by Homespun Elegance. The only thing I stitched on the sampler was the snowman! I had to buy more DMC for both projects. Now that I have thread, I'll be dedicating some time to both.
Okay, so Blogger wants to do center! Whatever Blogger wants, Blogger gets!
This is just a short post for my Turtle Trot WIPs.
Thanks everyone for stoppin' in and visiting!


Both look great! I love the snowman! Yeah, sometime Blogger seems to have a mind of it's own...
