Well, even though I posted the finished stitching back in February, I didn't quite have it done in time for Mother's Day! I'm going with the saying that it's better late than never. Just a simple flat finish, displayed on an easel.

Here are snaps of a La-D-Da shop freebie that my LNS recently sent me with my stash order...It was too cute not to stop and stitch it up in this lucsious shade of red silk.....I familiar phrase and a super quick stitch!

By the way, if anyone happens to have an email address for Lori Markovic of La-D-Da, I would greatly appreciate you emailing me....I have had several requests to share this chart and I would like to get her approval since it was a shop freebie....

Here's hoping everyone has a fantastic day~~~

2010-07-04T06:34:00.001+02:00

A friend lost her home to fire earlier this year. Although they lost everything materially, no one was at home so the family is safe. She and her husband relocated and bought a new home in the last month or so. I wanted to stitch something for them to have to hang on the walls of their new home, and this piece just struck me as perfect. I finished stitching and framed it this week while on staycation.

Thanks for allowing me to join La-D-Da Lovers’ blog. I have lots of these charts that are just waiting for me to stitch!

This pretty little piece was calling to me to go into a cloth covered box. After it was stitched, the fabric was just too light, so it got a coffee spa bath in the microwave. I like it much better this way!

Hi All! I am new to the blog and love all your finishes! I have recently stitched and finished "Halloween" from this years JCS halloween issue and made it into a little pillow. i stitched it over 1 on 28ct. I have it shown with a pack of needles to show the size of the little pillow.

I also have recently had my Miss Mary Mack framed. I stitched her a couple years ago, but finally got around to having her framed. I love how she turned out. She is stitched on hot pink evenweave (don't remember the count) over 2.

I made a romantic bag for myself. I've stitched it earlier but didn't know how to finish. It will be my new, romantic summer bag to walk a bit in town or just sitting at the terrace of a confectionery.
I didn't stich the all pattern, the frame is missing, but it's just the perfect form for this romantic bag. I changed some colours too, and added some curls... but I like make things individual.
