I'M Blogging Again! TWICE In TWO Days !


I did it!!  I'm posting again!  lol   I've been working outside today in humid hot, humid hot weather.  I did get some more paddles and boards painted.

I want to share some cross stitch finishes that happened this past week.

 I stitched this Blackbird Designs, Liberty Eagle for a exchange group. It was called The Very Merry Unbirthday Exchange. It was in a group Dixie Samplar has on Facebook. 
 This design is by The Primitive Hare.  Design is one of The Sea Ornaments. I stitched it on my black walnut stained 28 count linen. I also mounted it to one of my Primitive Boards. This one is the   Gray Whale Tail Board.
This last stitch I did was by SubRosa designs.  1776 Freebie from our Prim Stitchers Society on Facebook.  I mounted it on my Colonial Red Board.

I'm back to model stitching tonight....
 
I hope I have not lost all my Blogging Friends. I'm back to reading blogs at night before bed and commenting.. It is so hard trying to catch up on what everyone else is stitching or crafting. I love seeing all the vacation and summer pictures.

Until Later.....

I'M FALLING BEHIND AGAIN... WAY BEHIND!

 
Hello to anyone that is still following me....  I will say I really miss blogging.  Please forgive me for being away so long.  It is just so hard to find the time....  But, I will try to be A Better Blogger!  lol

I'm still model stitching, plus I'm designing my own needle punch patterns, also cutting, sanding, and painting boards. Plus I'm cutting paddles and boards from old barn wood to mount stitching.
It has been so hot in Alabama!  I have been working in this heat doing all that cutting and sanding.

I started a Facebook business page to sale. Just yesterday I opened a Etsy shop for my items.  Don't know how it will work out....

I had a booth at the Prim Stitcher Retreat. Looking around for some pictures....



 I made these pinkeeps for the retreat. I made 20 before I went to the retreat. I sold 15 so, the day before I stayed up all night making 20 more.  I came home with 6.  I think they were a hit.
 I also made these wooden hangers that will hold your needlework. I put a quilted applique piece in one and a cross stitch piece in the other one.


I had made these needle minders to sale. I made them where you could use on your fabric or beside your stitching place. Two
magnets.

This was my table at the retreat!  

I have been stitching models for Becky of Death By Thread.  Love stitching her models. The colors just pop! I did these two for her last month.



 This bag I stitched awhile back.  I loved how she finished it!

I'm going to sign off for now.  I have to get back to stitching the next Death By Thread Release..

Hint, beautiful linen and floss!  hehehehe
