Last week when I went to my LNS Stitching Group, I was thrilled to learn that "Love Birds" was ready to be picked up! I am saving it to give to my husband on Valentine's Day. (You see, he is an avid stitcher too, so I know that he will appreciate it as much as I do!)
Yesterday afternoon I went to a really fun "Stitch-In" with a group of nice stitchers, before the Super Bowl kick-off in the evening. We had a wonderful lunch and all kinds of delicious goodies to snack on, while we stitched and chatted the afternoon away.
This is my latest 'small' . I love this sweet little piece. It is easy to stitch and carry with me too. It will be finished as a little pincushion, as it is designed to be. I'm pondering how I want to make it a little different.

Hi Kathy Ellen,
ReplyDeleteI love your love birds! So pretty.
Your adorable daughter is so cute! I have a tea set that came with a special doll that I'm saving for my "future" Granddaughter. :) Keeping my fingers crossed!
Your Meaghan reminds me of my Sissie girl! She is a toy poodle (apricot) too. And I have to watch her with any paper, especially in my craft room. Anything that she can reach she thinks is hers. And she pouts when she gets in trouble too. They are too smart for their own good!
