I know it is Thursday but yesterday was just too busy to post but I wanted to link up with the
Needle and Thread Network for WIP Wednesday :-)
I am really enjoying the Home Sweet Home Penny Rug BOM from Melody of the
House on the side of the Hill and am pleased with myself as I am all caught up for this month .
A really fun project . I also got the star block finished up for last week with Pam Buda of
Heartspun Quilts ,I am enjoying these as well.Here are the three so far , it is not too late you can easily catch up so why not check it out .
This is rather pitiful but I started this little stitchery maybe two years ago , it is part of a runner and each end has embroidery , I even have the main part of the runner sewn together and it was when I came across that part of the runner that I realized I must find the stitchery and get that finished , well I have one end completed now and have started the second end , hope it won't take another two years to complete that ;-)
The pattern can be found in Australian Country Threads vol 7 No.4 and is designed by Brenda Ryan ,maybe I will show you the completed runner real soon .
As my post title says the postman arrived with some goodies for me , a short while ago I won some magazines from Terry of
Terry's Treasures and was only expecting magazines but Terry was more than generous and included a few extras , there were three wonderful American Patchwork magazines, a sweet little pincushion that she made , plus two patterns "Gardens I Dream About "by the Hopskotch Quilting Co. and a Project Pocket pattern by Blue Willow Designs .Thanks so much Terry I really appreciate your kindness and for making my day special .
Thanks for stopping by , be sure to visit the
Needle and Threadnetwork , I promise you will be inspired . Oh and if you have not entered my giveaway be sure to go
here .
Hugs Sheila

Your projects are all looking great. Lovely goodies from Terry. Hugs,
ReplyDeleteCongrats on working on your embroidered project, it is so much harder to re-start one than to commence a new one (not that I'd have any experience, lol).
ReplyDeleteYour penny rug looks lovely, well done on the catch up.
ReplyDeleteLook forward to seeing that runner finished. Sounds like it won't take too long.
Happy stitching.
