Hello and Happy Monday, my Lovelies!
I hope you had a great
weekend.
Wendy, our friend at Sugarlane
Designs, hosted Friday Night Sew In and I’m excited to tell you that I finished,
YES…finished, a cross stitched piece.
This is Give Thanks by The
Proper Stitcher.
I shared my start on this piece a couple of weeks ago. It is stitched on 40 count linen, Chocolate Milk by Fabrics by Steph. I used mostly the called-for floss but did make a couple of substitutions.
As you know, western North
Carolina is amid recovery from Hurricane Helene. Our little town decided to go
forth with their annual Apple Festival on Saturday.
I didn’t take many photos because
we were just enjoying the moment of being with neighbors and celebrating as if
nothing had happened a few short weeks ago. So much devastation but these folks
are resilient.
We enjoyed everything from all sorts of apple delicacies to jewelry making, local honey and so much more.
So, with all that activity, I didn’t quite accomplish everything on last week’s list.
I did plan the zoom group
stitch along. It will be hosted on the GaRon Stitchery Facebook page and my
blog. More to come…
I finished Give Thanks, as
you can see above.
Unfortunately, I only
finished 2 of the 3 blocks for Scrappiness Is Happiness.
The 64 Block
Tall Pines
I have one more block and the sashing to cut before I can begin to assemble the top. That will be my goal for this week.
Enjoy your day and week
ahead!
See you soon,
