Sitting on the couch, working on my cross stitch. Daisy's not the one cross stitching mind you, she doesn't have aposable thumbs! But she snuck into my spot when I went to grab my camera.
I am really loving doing some cross stitch again. The colors of the embroidery floss for the flower sections have lifted my spirits and made me think of spring. I actually think the act of me stitching those colors brought the sunshine out for a beautiful day today. It's gorgeous. I would be cross stitching on a blanket out in the back yard but we haven't put up a fence yet and I don't have the heart to tether Daisy up. I mean how could you? Look at that sweet face!
Okay so originally I was thinking that next month we'd do the Dahila Field Pillow for our monthly Embroidery Companion Sew Along project. (The Berry Border Pillow being an alternate choice. I wasn't interested in doing this one as much but that doesn't mean you wouldn't want to do it!)
But now after getting back into the cross stitch again I aching to start the Karin Curtains. (The Dot and Daisy Curtains being the alternate choice here.)
Either way we'll get to both projects at some point. But what are you ichin' to do right now?
I haven't cross stitched for a VERY long time! Don't let your water colours sit in the drawer. Get them out and have a play.... :-)
ReplyDeleteI love the look of those curtains! Beautiful!:-)
ReplyDeleteAnnette - Daisy gets more precious each time I see her. The cuteness meter is going way up, if that is possible!
