I don't know about you but I go through phases.....Some time all I want to do is cross stitch sometimes all I want to do is applique...But right now I am hooked on punch needle...The house is a design from Not forgotten Farms and the vase of flowers is a design from Maggie Bonanomi... I usually punch with three strands of floss but I did both of these pictures with a medium size needle and six strands of floss, I have to say that I love it....I also love the colors of these pictures I think they are so summery...I have a couple more design I am working on with six strand of floss, but there weren't finished for this post...These two picture I am listing on Early Work Mercantile tonight....If you have the time I would love it if you could stop by....
Well, I am off to punch a little more before my family wants to eat dinner..
I hope you have all the time you need for what ever hand work is your passion right now...
Thanks so much for stopping by and for the kind comments they make my day,

Sun Shine....
Good Morning....I hate to always be the weather man for the pacific north west.....But today we have sun shine.....Not a cloud in the sky....Yahoooo for me.....I have been working in my yard all week and it is starting to come around....I must say I love having dirt in my finger nails...Next comes may favorite part of yard work I get to plant flowers...It is still a little cold for that, but the fun will soon be here...
In between digging I did manage to stitch (I washed my hands first...LOL)....I just love this design it is from Stacy Nash...
Also a little wool applique....I just love red ticking and geraniums....
Last is a strawberry from Black bird design....
I have been stitching and digging like crazy this week these are the items I am listing tonight on TDIPT....I hope you have the time to stop by and take a look....I'm sure there will be lots of great hand work to see...
Thanks for stopping by, your kind comments make my day...
Take care,
Nancy
