I enjoyed stitching the Maryse SAL piece this month – mainly because crocus are one of my favourite flowers! Not that I can see any outside, given the size of the snowbanks and snowdrifts there are at my house – LOL. I can dream tho……
I am particularly enjoying the colours in this piece, and am looking forward to seeing what the rest of the neighbourhood looks like.
And then there were two – owls, that is! Well, okay, including January, there are now three:
I switched the colours on the tummys tho – I could not see much difference in shades when I stitched the first owl in the colour called for. Do you think there will be a shamrock owl here in March??
And then there were blackbirds – lots of them this time! This is part II in the Blackbird Mystery Sampler:
hmmmm 12 blackbirds! If this were a flock of crows, it would be a ‘murder’.
Can you stand to see another mitten? The Cricket Collection offered a new freebie for Valentines day – Mitten Cakes! The freebie is here: http://www.cecricket.com/gift_design.html and this is my finished mitten for February:
I backstitched the SWEET part of the sweetheart, cause I could not see the letters well. Vicki’s idea of beads for sprinkles was perfect! And I think the pink and white cording tops it off!
