Happy Weekend, Friends.
Instead of yesterday’s
Floss Friday, I celebrated National Sewing Machine Day and shared my collection
of machines. You can find that post by clicking here, in
case you missed it and are interested.
Today I am listing my May stitching
stats and sharing a new start.
May’s stitch count is 6,337 on six different projects. There hasn’t been any new progress on the following since I last posted about them:
- - Parrot
by Salty Stitches Designs (love this one)
- - Memorial
Day by Hands on Designs (NOT loving this one)
- - Christmas
at Hawk Run Hollow by Carriage House Samplings (love this but it will be a years
long project)
You
saw my finish on May’s Calendar Crate by Stitching with the Housewives, but I
never shared the final finish. As a reminder, this is the series that is
displayed on the piece from Hobby Lobby and is just inside the garage entry.
This will stay up until I
either finish July’s or when August rolls around. I never started the June piece…it’s
on the list.
You also saw my finish on A Honey of a Tiny Town by Heart in Hand. The bee display has been moved to the Hoosier cabinet. This is how it stands for now. I may add another stitched piece, and I also may get out the Rae Dunn Queen Bee tea pot, honey dipper and cup.
I decided to join Hollis Hands Create in her summer stitch along. She encourages stitchers to start a patriotic pattern on Memorial Day and finish by Labor Day.
This was my start and
finish last year…
This is what I selected for this year’s SAL…
I’m stitching American Sampler by Primrose Cottage on 40 count linen by Fabrics by Stephanie, in the color Chocolate Milk. I’m using most of the called-for floss.
With the weather finally turning nice, it has been difficult to stay inside and stitch…or sew.
I hope you are having a
lovely weekend.
See you soon,

It appears you have a good start on Primrose cottage
Everything looks lovely.
Your displays are so pretty, Jeanna! I love the little chair on the Hoosier cabinet. Your new sampler is a neat one - I have never stitched anything by Primrose Cottage, but am very tempted!
I love seeing what's being displayed in your Hoosier Cabinet. It always looks so nice! I like the patriotic pattern you chose. I've seen Primrose Cottage patterns before and always seem to like them.
Beautiful works. Everything looks so nice. The weather here is all rainy but warmer.
Your displays always look lovely. xx
Love your display! The American Sampler start looks beautiful.
I so enjoy seeing your displays, always so beautiful. Love the Farmhouse stitchery, so pretty.
