Love Thy Neighbor WIP


Posting as I go...the black outline areas are taking me longer than expected because the fabric is so hard to see I have to do a single stitch at a time...But, if all goes well I will have this done by this coming Sunday (as to start-yet again) another project (I hope). Miss you guys. Mother, post the bears head you said is done, we would like to see the madness! The Crone

Love Thy Neighbor


Started Love Thy Neighbor last Sunday (January 23rd) on 28 count sparrow. It is really hard to photograph and show what it looks like. The Maiden told me I should post soon so we could see the progress before it just was finished. I am done with everything now...working on the border black threads and then the words. I might change the saying...I haven't quite decided. Love you guys.

Also changed DMC 832 to The Gentle Art Avocado 0130
and DMC 724 to Weeks Dye Works Fire 2268.....the colors are so muted in this piece they were just to hard to see.

Heaven and Earth Blog

Maiden,
Will you post the blog that we were looking at with the 50 HAED's. I would like to talk to a "webpage" person to see the logistics. I love it. Thanks. Crone

Birds of a Feather-Bloom Where You Are Planted



Yahoo..2nd finish in 2011. Bloom Where You Are Planted, as you can see, this can look very different depending on the camera. It is done on 28 count Heritage, which has a great green motteling in the background. I started this project on Saturday and it took me 5 days to complete. So here is the big question-does anyone out there know of similar projects that are about the same size 66W x 65H? I could get use to working on things like this. I didn't want to start a big project when I knew the Round Robin will be showing up any day...VERY HAPPY NOW!

Atlantic Seaboard Sampler by Jeanette Douglas

Mother,
Found a website with pattern corrections for your project. Says that the symbol for the last roof of the last lighthouse is / which should be 647. Thought I should share. I am going to get online and try and find you that "coin" medalion that is in the pattern. The Crone

Welcome to our blog!

Jules, welcome to hanging out with us on our blog. We love the attention and the comments. I am thinking about giving out some of our "done" patterns for our friends. Since you are one of our only friends I guess that will be you! Let's talk. The Crone (Carol)


Jimmy's Bear is coming along.



Atlantic Seaboard is well on its way
