Good morning all! Here are my next new starts for my bday SAL. But first I want to respond to some comments left on the last post:
Linda, you are more than welcome to join me on my 56 day SAL!
Melinda/Merry Wind Farm wanted to know what DMC color I'm using for the blue dresses. I'm using 3761. I'm attracted to a chart by the picture of the model but as we all know the called for floss sometimes doesn't look like the picture. Oh and I decided to keep the border leaves all one color. Thanks for your input Melinda:)
Jo/Serendipitous Stitcher said she likes how Beth Twist used the U in honour, see last post to see what I'm talking about. I do too. Since Charles Dickens is from England, I am stitching just how it looks on the chart. At first I was going to change it to American English spelling but it makes more sense to leave it.
Now onto my SAL starts...Day 4

By Stacy Nash. I stitched this once before on a lighter fabric. I'm using a 28ct fabric which sure
looks and feels like 30 or 32ct.
Day 5 is..
Kitchen Witch, a freebie by the Primitive Hare. This has been in my freebie stash for awhile. I'll
look forward to throwing the copy into the trash! Some freebie copies I keep, others I toss if I don't
see myself stitching it again.
Day 6..
Hare Sampler from a 2019 Primitive Punchneedle and Stitching magazine. I think it's
the summer issue. I'm stitching this for the exchange that I joined. I think it's called
the Spring Hop or Spring into Easter exchange. My partner likes sampler type
designers. Here's where I am at on it..
I have since added the alphabet up to T and the top of the rabbits head. It's going to be
around 5.5 sq inches. I'm not sure how I'll FFO this. If I can find a wood or paper mâché
box big enough, I'll mount it on the top.
Day 7..
I love this little design! There's some back stitch on the cabin but that's it. I'm stitching
this in hand since I have no qsnaps small enough. I plan to finish it just like picture.
The fabric looks like brown suede with dots on it. I was looking for this fabric
at Hob Lob but no luck. Maybe I can use fabric paint for the dots on brown fabric.
That's a thought.
So by now you're thinking yeah, but it's the 10th today and you have just 7 starts.
I didn't stitch one of the days and I'm taking the time to finish Hare Sampler.
I have until the middle of March to send my exchange package back east.
Alrighty, I think that's it. Once again Blogger is telling me your time is up!
I'll keep stitching on my exchange piece until it's done and then back to my SAL.
Anyone else want to join me, you're welcome to.
Happy Stitching!
