Dancing Happy!!!

Hi all! Hope the weather is fine where you're at. I thought I would poke my head in here and share a few things.

I have 3 finishes!! Yes, 3 in almost as many days. First one is The Merry Hart by PSS..

Love it! I just love that huge red flower. I think my fabric is Platnum 35ct that I

coffee dyed. I used mostly CCW floss with a couple DMC subs. Here are a couple of

other angles..

On the last post I mentioned feeling stressful over the amount of 'planned' stitching

I had. I chucked those plans and just picked up whatever made more noise. There's something

to be said for being a monogamous stitcher!

Next up is Promise Me by Lizzie Kate..

This is to be a Christmas gift to my daughter. It's on a 32ct linen, mystery, with WDW

floss. I wanted to put 'mom' and the date somewhere on this but I just couldn't get

it right. It looked horrible. I usually don't sign my stuff anyway. When it's framed I'll 

put something on the back with my name and date on it

My next finish happened just last night..

Early Witches by The Primitive Hare, on 30 or 32ct French vanilla linen with DMC.

I coffee dyed this too. I put in a marathon stitching session the last couple days!

A WIP since 2014, love it. Tituba has a black kettle that she is carrying and Marie

Leveau is carrying a voodoo doll with a bunch of pins sticking out of it. I added a few

more! Lol. Here's another pic..

I think you can see the pins. At first I thought she was holding a chicken. That would be

appropriate too!

Those are my 3 finishes! 

I also deconstructed a previous finish..

By Country Cottage Needleworks. I hot glued that thick store bought cording to the sides; 

never again. You can see where I started ripping it off. I had to puck off all the glue. Here is

how it looks now..

I'm not sure I have enough fabric on the sides to work with but I'm thinking of 

turning this into a table topper. Sew on matching fabric on the sides and then bind it. Hmm.

We'll see.

That's it. I just wanted to show my finishes. I will probably take some time to read 

and do some woolfelt appliqué. 

Thanks for visiting. Hope you all have a good week!
