FINALLY A FINISH

I finished Garden of Love on Friday night - only a few days late.  This was a fun stitch - I used the recommended Belle Soie colors which were yummy by the way and the called for 36ct vintage meadow rue linen.  I don't know exactly what I will do with it but I think a cube might be nice.

A month or so ago I was discussing the hornbook project by With My Needle with fellow "smalls" blog member Jeanne ( Willow Tree Stitcher) and we decided that we needed to finish up this "small" project.  Well she finished hers and errrr - well - I have almost finished mine.  Just one more 1/2 medallion and an initial and the finishing and I'll be done with mine too.

I was working on the Poinsettia House which was the first monthly project for the "smalls" blog however I ran out of steam ( or time) and now that the holiday season is over.  I will have to put it away till next fall.  I am one of those people who likes to stitch in the season.

While I love the BBD chosen for the March - I was pretty sure I  had all those Reward of Merit pieces and I can't seem to locate this one.  I'm undecided if I am going to purchase one if I can't find mine so I might end up skipping the March small.  I will look forward to seeing what everyone else is doing.

So here's hoping there is lots of bunnies in your stitching future.

  1. Congrats Mel on another finish- so cute! You go girl now and finish up that hornbook LOL. I just did the hornbook finishing for a friend in Virginia I met thru blogging and it was so cute.

    You could always substitute another Reward of Merit pattern for the March choice.....like you I have several of those BBD patterns. I was lucky I looked first this time before purchasing the next Smalls project as I already had the pattern - it's not unusual for me to buy something I already have!
