Lizzie Kate is one of my favorite designers
and I just love her fun, simple style.
This design caught my eye and I couldn't
resist stitching it any longer.
 
LK "Think Deeply"
stitched on 40ct linen with Victorian Motto
 
I love the message in this one.

 
I did change the colors to suit me trading in
the bright pastels for reds and browns.
 
 
I also eliminated the fill for the "T"
for a simpler finish.

I have another project underway and
this sweet BBD is perfect.
 
BBD "Hannah's Small Basket"
from Schoolgirl's Work
stitched on 40ct linen with Victorian Motto
 
 How have I not stitched this before now? 
I just love it and have a special
finish planned for this one.

I am off to visit my Mom.....
if I can tear myself away
from the NFL draft.   I don't know why
I am so interested in it....other than
seeing my favorite players being drafted.....
but it has made the best stitching t.v.
 
Hope you have a great weekend and
enjoy some stitching time!
