Managed to get not one, but two finishes under my belt this weekend. I am so excited! One was even a WIPocalypse finish. Woohoo!
Alrighty then...on with the show! :)
Finish #1:
***Stitcher's Notes: Stitched one silk floss thread over two fabric threads.***
Finish#2:
Fabric: 28 count linen in Vintage by Fleur de Luce Hand Dyeds
***Stitcher's Notes: Year was not changed as I used this as an anniversary sampler for DH and I. I may change the lone "W" to his and my initials, but I haven't decided to do that as of yet.
Well, I best be off. Time to get out another WIP and have at it! :)
Hope everyone had a great weekend! :)

So I wake up this morning to find that Blogger has "improved" their website and I am NOT HAPPY with the changes. I cannot find a damn thing and I do NOT like having to hunt and peck to find what I need. I do not like forced upgrades for the sake of candy coating a product anyway, and this is no exception. I use Blogger as an online chronicle, if you will, of my stitching endeavors, and I had become accustomed to having things in certain places. There was nothing wrong with the product the way it was, and IMO, this was a case of trying to fix something that wasn't broken to start with. Grrrr!
At any rate, here is what I have so far on Coeur Romantique. It's stitching up a LOT faster than I thought it would and I am pleased with my progress so far.

Well, I best be off. Need to do some things before work. Hope everyone is having a great week! :)

Well, Madame de Printemps has finally decided to make an appearance here in the foot of the Sierra Nevadas. It's pleasantly warm and the birds are out in the cherry trees singing their little hearts out. I have a classical music mix on iTunes right now, with some Harney & Sons Paris tea by my side.
With all of this going on, I had, HAD to mind you, begin a new project. Something pretty and spring time like, with lots of pretty colors on a soft background. Hence, the new start. I had been doing so well with the WIPocalypse (or at least my version of it!), I really did feel a bit guilty starting something new, but I just couldn't help it. Nothing in my bags was very spring like, and that's really what I'm in the mood for. I've promised myself that I will get back to it, once this current project is completed.
Let's get to it, shall we? :)
Design: Coeur Romantique
Designer: Reflets de Soie
Fabric: Vintage Belfast linen in Country Cream
Fiber: Gloriana Threads in 079- Monet's Pond

Well, I best be off. Time to stitch some more and I need to put the kettle on for more tea. Happy spring everyone! :)
