Stitching Progress.

Posted on | May 29, 2018 | 16 Comments

I am making a lot of stitching progress on a variety of projects this week.

The next wool project I have taken on is another Wendy Williams design called Flocks By Night.

I have started on the centre panel and am using wool. I will make the surrounding stars later.

I have attached all the trees and houses. Now I have the big task of attaching all the circles to each tree. After that I can start decorating.

I am learning to be patient with this one.

I have completed two embroideries designed by Michelle Ridgway – Rag Tag Stitchin’.

My plan is to turn these into little cushions.

Both have been stitched in a Perle thread from Cottage Garden Threads.

These snowies are so cute!

After all the work on the recently framed embroideries I have returned to a long forgotten project and have completed another block.

I think I have about 7 of these completed now. This is from a booklet called All Creatures Great and Small. It is by Natalie Bird from Birdhouse Designs.

That’s it for the stitching report.

I gather some people are having problems with comments, replies and emails and also have concerns re the new EU regulations regarding privacy. Well, this will be my test to see how WordPress have handled it. Good luck everyone.

Cheers, Karen

    Hi, Karen. Lovely work. Actually, in my spare time, I love to do the stitching. Always I use to stitch by reusing the old clothes. In your post, I like the one stitched in a Perle thread.

    I love Michelle’s designs and have stitched up her Christmas ABC series, just need to assemble them now. As for the blog comments, these seem to be going through OK, I think the problem is that they are no longer going to your email list as well, as they used to. This of course made it easy to send an answer back.

    Karen, your wool piece is fabulous! I can see why you have to be patient, but those circles on the trees add so much pizazz to the project! Love the embroideries. Michelle has some great designs.

    I hope you receive this comment Karen. Mine are all on my blog but I have not received the email notification. Ugh!!! Craziness. If WordPress plays along, maybe I’ll need to move across…. Your stitching is so lovely. I do like the look of the Wendy Williams one, especially.
