My Needle Work Passion For Today....

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,
Nancy

  2. Hi Nancy, Yes, I do the same thing, I do go through phases. I need to get back to the needle punching though. I put that down and I have never picked that up.
    I love these two designs very much. They look great. I hope you are having lovely days with lots of sunshine. :)

  3. I can definitely agree with you about going through phases - mine vary between punch needle, rug hooking, applique, and piecing - not cross stitch so much anymore. Your projects are delightful!
