Happy May Day....And Early Work Mercantile...



Yahoo....Out of the hundreds of project that I have started (well maybe hundreds is a exaggeration or maybe not) and have been telling all of you fun people out in blog land about, I finished four of them...First off is my flower pin-keep...The cross stitch design came for a antique sampler.....I love any thing that is old and rusty, so I thought the old key and beads might be a nice touch....




Next I moved to wool applique for a candle mat....



Next is my wool appliqued pillow....I have this thing for pillows, I never think a girl can have to many...


My last finish is a wool appliqued strawberry table mat...The appliqued designs I just finished came from Primitive Gathering.
That is what I finished this week....I will be listing all of these items on Early Work Mercantile tonight....If you have the time I would love it if you could stop by and take a look...
That is all the fun facts I have for today.....Thanks so much for all the kind comments, you make my day.....Take care, Nancy

I Love people that Stitch and Blog....


I love people that stitch and blog...Thank-you, thank-you for making me laugh....I love all the funny comments you left on my last post...It seams like a lot of you out there are just like me, addicted to starting new projects....



I am happy to say that I did finish a couple of pillows that I am listing on TDIPT tonight...
I have really been in the mood for flowers and since it is so wet here and I can't plant them I decided to stitch them...


All three pillows were fun to make and my finger nail aren't full of dirt as they would be if these flowers were planted in my yard...I guess that is a positive thing...But I still can't wait for a yard full of blooming flowers....
I'm off to fix dinner and then take another stab at my ever growing pile of newly started projects....Thanks again for the funny comments, they made my day....
Take care, Nancy

Do Any Of You Do This???



Hopefully I'm not the only one that does this......I have a big stack of project that are started and another pile of projects that are almost finished....Why do I keep skipping around???
One evening when I sit down to stitch, maybe I feel like cross stitching or maybe punch needle would be fun or should I finish the wool applique that is staring at me...

Anyway I'm almost finished with Sarah Tobias from BB designs...I have the perfect place to hang her sampler..Hopefully she will be of to the framers soon....

I'm still think that I might need one more rabbit....The punch needle design is from country stitches...

When it is really raining hard here...I'm thinking what about a Flag design...Do you think if I stitch something for summer the season might come sooner????? I can only hope..



Last is my me to me Christmas present.....I joined Sue Spargo's Block of the month for 2011...
I have to say.....Great fun...I have finished the January and February blocks.....But it is now April and soon I will be two blocked behind....That is the story of my life....To many project and not enough time...
That's all the fun facts I have for today....Thanks for all your kind comments...as always they make my day....Thanks for stopping by, Nancy
