More Progress on Ewe and Eye's Coming Home

Filled in the tent stitches

 My camera on my IPhone doesn't capture the difference in texture and color between threads.  I promise it looks great.  I did run out of the Weeks Dye Works.  I hope I can find the same tones in another skein.

Back to Coming Home

Almost finished the grass on the right of the house

Bad lighting but good stitch detail of Victorian Step Variation

There was very little stitching here this weekend.  The unstitched spots here will be filled in with a tent stitch using two strands of Burmilana.

Oh my!

Could this be any more gorgeous?  One of the Swans stitched this bag and it just came back from the finishers.  She bought the canvas and threads in DC.  Incredible.

Ewe and Eye's Coming Home

I pulled out this old friend.  I'm stitching it using a guide by Amy Bunger.  I love it.

More Stuff From Memphis

During Eliz/Steph 3.0 last month we went sequin/doodad shopping.  We split some of the bags since neither one of us will ever need 500 of anything.  Or will we?  Here's what we got….

One bag of each of the above

One bag each of the holly leaves, spiders and kitty cat.  The top is a Xmas mix bag.

Frosty sequins and nice quality bells

You never know what you might need while creating.

I had some fun posting these pics on FB Saturday.  Everything but the final pic at bedtime on Saturday.

Bedtime on Saturday

Thank you to Kelly Clark and The French Knot for the pear, Carolyn Baird for the perfect colors of silk and Amy Bunger for the perfect shade of Gloriana for the leaves.  I love this pear.

A little progress

Basketweaving the white areas of the roof

Not too much stitching here.   White areas of the roof are done and the front door.
