Here is the view out my Dining room window......it just puts a skip in my step!
I am finished the towel and the bib and the onesie (I'm gonna put the name on it it even it out, Thanks Coni! Great idea)
:)
I started an alphabet sampler in pooh...LOVE IT!!!!!....POOH POOH POOH
Here is Ann's....I should have probably ironed it, the pic doesn't do it justice....beautiful.....
Here is Simone's Sampler....all reds....absolutely beautiful!
OK
If I have to stitch one more pooh character...I may just vomit...I love this hooded towel and the vibrant, deep colors...I think it's coming along nicely. I was never a character fan...of any type...maybe a lamb here or there but that's about it.....my kids bedding was just blue with clouds all over it...painted the room with clouds and stenciled a picket fence with flowers....not cutesy AT ALL...it's just not my style...
this is cute, but so are fat toes and baby's bottoms.........I hope she likes it....
I will be dedicating this week to my Friendship Sampler RR...I haven't had one to do in a month because in my rotation, Willeke mails two at a time from the Netherlands and I completed both at once last time......I have to get into the swing of things.....
I have been MIA lately.......I have been planning my daughter's First Communion...(pics to follow)....I have gotten off the beaten track...I wanted SO darn badly to start my Laura J Perrin project, but I want to savor every moment and enjoy the ride...I really don't want to rush it...so next week I have scheduled a day with my wonderful starter supplies from Coni and my beautiful pattern....
You know....I work SOOOOO darn hard at centering things....but NOOOOO...can it ever work????????
I measure and measure, count, get out my stitch counter, calculator and pencil....toil for HOURS...sweat.....take a shot of liquor then dive in.....FOR THE LOVE OF GOD...I can't take it any longer!
Why can't I center anything??!??!!
But I do think it came out pretty.....I must admit, not a big pooh fan, but the Mommy-to-be is obsessed and I have to stay within the theme....I forgot how damn hard it is to work with waste canvas....I love the results, but it isn't centered.....
