More Framing Accomplished!

 I wanted to share several more pieces that I recently picked up from our wonderful framer.  It feels so good to finally have these items in a finished form.


First, I had Lizzie Kate's Christmas Mystery Sampler 2 framed. I love this one!  









Here is Oberlin Samplers Minnesota Sampler~ 







I also picked up the Variegated Sampler from the out of print Cross Stitch and Country Crafts Magazine.  







Thanks for stopping by today.

A Finish- Sarah Braizear 1829

 A few weeks ago I finished Sarah Braizear 1829 from HATS. Yesterday I finally inspected the piece and I did find a few things I needed to repair. 


It feels great to have Sarah completed. I will have her framed professionally after I have immunity from my vaccines. Truly, the satin stitches were daunting. 


Here is Sarah Braizear 1829. Thanks to Nicola Parkman for reproducing this gorgeous sampler. 










Thanks for stopping by today!

Stitching Continues!

 I have been so long in visiting this blog.  I am still busily stitching at home, tending to family, connecting virtually with family members & friends, and staying at home. 

Life has been filled with working on a variety of projects over the past several months.  

What a year it has been.  I have always been a homebody, but this is of course at a new level for everyone, and me. 

Here are a few of  of my current WIPs:
