…a week I did manage some stitching I can share…firstly I wanted a quick stitch for my August ornament as I have some birthday gift stitching to do this month, so I opted for this little treasure…
It’s the 2011 Christmas freebie design from Carol at iStitch, stitched on 32c Murano Vanilla with DMC threads. I will make this into a little hanging pillow ornie I think.
My second finish is this…a wedding sampler for my friends..
Make It Personal ‘Joined in Marriage’ – Lizzie*Kate
32c Light Mocha Linen
GAST threads
I wanted something simple and non frilly for them, I will make this into a long pillow I think.
Now wait…don’t faint…more stitching to show…..my WIP on CCN Sheep in the Meadow…
…as you can see I have been making friends with green…lol…still more green to go!
A little crochet on the throw has happened too…but no picture as yet!
I decided that I wanted to organise my thread collections which are all in floss bags…but I had nowhere to put them….so a nice shopping trip on Thursday afternoon occurred and these came home with me…
I spent most of Friday organising everything and now I have everything to hand….
I also found this…..well it just had to be bought…lol!
and these…..I have a love of candles…but a habit of never lighting them…but I am pleased to announce I lit these and look there is the proof for you all…they smell absolutely beautiful too!
Finally..I was baking the other day and wondered where my new oven gloves had gone…..and here is where they went…someone though they made great shoes…lol
Thanks for visiting my blog today and thank you for all your kind comments…I really appreciate them all!

Oh bless Miss Martha - they do look good though. Love all your photos. You have a basket thing like me! Love the way you have organised your threads. They look really good x
Oh that picture of Martha in her new shoes is priceless :)
Lovely stitching on the WIPS. I'm stitching with a lot of green at present also.
Love the new storage baskets and the basket for your smalls is lovely.

LOL...Martha's new shoes are fantastic. You can't use her shoes as oven gloves!!!
Love your stiching. Congrats on your finishes. The wedding sampler is such a gorgeous gift.
Sheep in the Meadow is just lovely too.
Flippers! Great idea Martha. They make good rabbit ears in a game too lol.
Lots of lovely stitching.
Hello
Your blog is so lovely!
Your ornament finish and wedding sampler finish are so lovely.
Those drawers are great they look really good.
Your daughter looks so sweet wearing your oven gloves!
Happy stitching!
Love Martha's new slippers! Lovely ornament stitch :) The new storage baskets look like a wonderful idea!
I like your storage baskets, how many bags can each one hold? All my DMC are in floss-a-way bags on rings in a big paper carrier bag but your storage looks so much nicer!
I love Martha's slippers too!
Great stitches and I love your display of all your sorted goodies.
How funny about your oven mitts!!! She's so cute!!
Gorgeous stitching live the oven shoes
