New Starts and an Oldie But A Goodie


Blackbird Designs
Autumn Song
30 ct R & R Iced Cappucino
Called for WDW threads

I have been dying to start this one!  And actually put it on my list "To Start in 2011"-we'll see if I get it finished :)


Tree of Life Samplings
Penny America
36 ct Lakeside Linen Maple Sugar
Called for DMC and WDW threads

Who can resist this one? It is darling!   I see a lot of bloggers working on this one (or finished it already,yes, I mean you, Faye!)

Birds of a Feather
Le Printemps
36 ct Edinburgh linen
WDW threads

This is the oldie but goodie.  I pulled it out and got some work done.  Much more to go, but I love the "outlining" of the design, lots of empty space, and the overdyed threads are perfection on this.

I have also started a new project for my new grandbaby that is on the way.  Can't share photos because my daughter checks in here occasionally.

I'm off on vacation this weekend.  One of my 2 1/2 remaining Crazy January Challenges is already in my sewing bag (it is already packed, of course). So I hope to have another finish to post when I return.

Whew, looks like you're a busy little bee! Love love love Printemps. I have 'Hiver' in my stash... might go and dig it up after seeing your beautiful start!

Enjy your vacation!

Wow, beautiful projects! I love that BBD--I need to dig it out--it's the perfect autumnal stitch. I love Penny America! Jan hit a home run with that design, didn't she?! Love Le P, too. I just love those designs. I need to stitch L'Hiver. I wasn't so crazy about the autumn piece but will probably stitch it at some point all the same.

So many great starts! I love all these charts.

Lovely projects. All of them. Autumn song is such a gorgeous chart. Have that on my to do list as well. Penny America is of course a beauty. Love that design.
And Le Printemps is looking fantastic as well.
Wishing you lots of fun on your vacation

You have lots on the go. I like that Autumn Song, quite a bit. I'm becoming a bird lover, lol.

Beautiful projects! I just added Penny America to my stash, and I have the winter version of the BoaF piece.

Looks like you have some great projects lined up. As quick as you stitch, we'll see finishes soon.
