Another Friday, Another LHN Design!

Hello everyone! Here I am slightly late with my update from last Friday's stitching effort...

Last week I finally got around to starting Little House Needleworks "Old Glory".  This design was one of my Stitch Maynia starts, but it was mainly chosen to fit into another SAL on the Stitch Maynia group to celebrate the state of Texas.

I am stitching the design with the DMC conversion rather than the fancy floss, but that's ok because it will still be a gorgeous finish (one day!).  Fabric is 28ct Lugana "Dapple" from Picture This Plus.

I was really surprised with my progress on Friday night.... Border all done! :o)

The Bookshelf...

Another Friday has come and gone... and this week I pulled out the same project as I stitched on last Friday. 

I was doing a SAL for Stitch Maynia last week and the daily challenge for Friday related to schools/school work - so my thought pattern went along the lines of what type of books that you would see at school.  I suspect that most literary classics are in the majority of school libraries still, so I thought that would be a nice segway (segue) to my "Bookshelf" WIP!

I managed a good bit of progress this time round as I had Friday off work and was able to get more than my usual 1-2hrs a day stitching time in!!

Til next time, Happy Stitching

I did it!!!

Guess what? I think this is my first Friday Frolics post for 2018!  That doesn't mean I haven't stitched on a Friday... it's just that I keep forgetting to post about it!!

So without further ado....

Friday 20th April 2018 - Friday Frolics
For my Friday Frolics I decided to pull out one of my many Little House Needleworks WIPs!  I didn't manage to get a lot done but progress is progress!  I originally started this design for the Jane Austen Reading and Stitching FB group SAL.  The first part of the SAL was related to "Sense and Sensibility"... hence the strange starting point! I now plan to add the author names before deciding which way to go from there.

Finally I have something to FROLIC about

Thanks to Kaye for hosting this wonderful blog and that I finally have something to post.  This week I picked up a piece I started sometime last year and I am almost finished with it.  It is a little piece called "Good Tidings" is from Little House Needleworks.  I only need to stitch the hands and that should get done tonight.  Woohoo, another "fait accompli" to add to my list.

Once it is completely finished I will post on my blog, Tea-n-Stitches.  Stop by to see what else I have been stitching.

Enjoy!!
