I am happy to start with a clean slate
this year but wanted share the
last of my 2013 finishes.
Summer House "Simple Abundance"
Kit from 2013 Pals Retreat
A new to me designer, Summer House, was at the
Pals Retreat this year. I really liked her designs
and came home with a bag full including this
cute little exclusive retreat kit. I stitched the
end of October during a football road trip
and forgot about it until rummaging
through my finishing pile.
It is destined to become a pinkeep.

I found time to sneak in another ornament
finish while travelling for Christmas celebrations.

After taking stock of what was languishing
in my stitching bag, I do what any
stitcher would do and start something new!
Threadwork Primitives "Merry Winter"
stitched on 40ct coffee dyed linen
w/ Victorian Motto threads
So cute....can't decide if I will finish as a box.

I want to document what is so patiently
waiting in my stitching bag.
Hopefully this time next year I can look
and relish them as finished.
