When I started Quaker Impressions from Smitten By Stitches I thought it was too late to make it a blessings sampler, which is supposed to be started and completed in January, but as I stitched I started to think that maybe I could get it done in time even with a really late start. It might have happened, but then I got sick, so that put paid to that idea! I'm still not feeling great, but well enough to stitch yesterday, so here is where I am right now:
I need to finish four and a half flowers along the edges and then I'm going to use some beads to add just a bit of sparkle. I probably won't have a lot of stitching time today, but this should be done by tomorrow at the latest.
Back in September I was getting ready for the Friendstitch Gathering, which was a very fun event. It is put on by the designers from Heart in Hand Needleart and Bent Creek, and this time they had the ladies behind Primrose Cottage Stitches as guests. I stitched three of the models for the box of goodies, including the drum design from Primrose Cottage:
I haven't taken any pictures of the box contents yet, and at this point it will be like discovering them anew as I have very little recollection of what was in there. Maybe this week I'll work up the ambition to pull it out and take some photos. I don't think they've released any details for this year's event yet; maybe after Market has taken place.
Hope everyone has a great stitchy week!
