Out with the old....

 
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.

Homespun Elegance "Majestic Bird"
stitched on 32ct coffee dyed linen

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.

have a great stitching year!

BC Summer House finished....

I finished this Thursday night and it was a cute design to stitch. I have a walnut square frame that will be perfect if I can just make myself frame it.

I finally started Barbara & Cheryl's Petite Rainbow Row Saturday night. I think this is going to stitch a lot quicker than a I thought. This is good since I need this finished by August 1st.

Hope all are having a great weekend and happy stitching....
