Woven stitch in size 8 Kreinik

Little heart shaped Rhodes stitch in Neon Rays

There is not much stitching going on here.  I was a bit under the weather today.  My puppy is in the chew stage and now I have a sick kid.  YIKES!

Embellishing the pears

I finished the top section.  Kelly has embellished some of these patchwork pears with buttons, beads, and silk ribbon.  First step, find the buttons!

Pears and Acorns

I bought this to stitch for a dear friend.  I love large blocks of color that allow all kinds of stitches to be considered.

Kelly Clark Pear from The French Knot

 I finished the middle right section and started the eyelet stitches that go in the dark wide stripe at lower left.

Pink Pear started

This is another pear from the club I joined at The French Knot.  Of course, I changed the threads a bit.  I love it.
