Weekly Stitching and Haul

I only have one project to show today. I have been working on two this past week but I can't show one of them as I have a friend that reads my blog and I have purchased the same kit to send her and she hasn't received it yet. I should be able to show it soon.

Early American Series-Little House Needleworks

I have a little bit of haul this week as Everything Cross Stitch had all of their patriotic patterns on sale.

Liberty Lane-Country Cottage Needleworks

Stars and Stripes Forever-Bent Creek

Starburst Patriotic-Cherry Lane Designs

Stars and Stripes-Prairie Schooler

I thought I would start including a couple of new things with my weekly updated.

What I am listening to this week: Revival by Eminem I am a huge fan of Eminem and this cd is his best I think.

What I am reading this week: By Gaslight by Steven Price

I hope you all have a great week filled with stitches.

Weekly Stitching

Good Monday morning! I hope you are staying warm. It is cold here and we have a small amount of snow on the ground from Friday. We are supposed to get around 3 inches tonight and tomorrow and I really like snow, but I hope we don't get it so I am able to get to work. I told my husband yesterday that I am now ready to move to Florida!!


I purchased this stamped wall quilt from Herrschners for only $6 and I wish I had gotten a couple of more to do for gifts. It was a fun and quick stitch. I still have to quilt it.

Dog Rules for People-Lizzie Kate
This piece was a round robin that I participated in last year but I didn't finish it until the end of December. I stitched the top row, bottom row, and half the middle row.

Advent Animal 4-Brookes Books I finished this the end of December as well.

The Kings of Queens of England-Bothy Threads

Mary-Nativity Trilogy by Mill Hill I started this last week.

Alphabet-Prairie Schooler I started this on January 1. I am doing the entire alphabet all on one large piece of fabric. It is my goal to do at least one letter each month.

Love Never Fails-Barbara Ana I started this in January 2018.

London-Thea Gouveneur I started this on this past Saturday.

I would love to hear what you started for the new year.

Weekly Stitching

Henry VIII-Heaven and Earth Designs I am very close to a page finish. I can't wait to see Henry appear.

The Kings and Queens of England-Bothy Threads

Old World Santa Book 2-Prairie Schooler
I mailed this off today.

I don't have any haul to show. I did go to Joann's yesterday as they had a 40% off your entire purchase coupon. I got some DMC thread that I was missing for a few projects and some fabric as I am going to try to make some project bags for myself. Wish me luck on that!

Weekly Stitching

Happy Fall Y'all!!! Our weather is supposed to have fall temps this week and I can't wait. I am so looking forward to that cool, crispness in the air and going to the Pumpkin Farm. I will finally be able to sit on my front porch and stitch and enjoy the weather and colors of fall.

Needles and Pins-Theron Traditions

Kings and Queens of England-Bothy Threads
I need to do the backstitching on three of them but will go back and get that soon. Saturday night, my husband spilled his drink on this project. I just have to say, he is a very lucky man that it did not stain my project.

Old World Santa Book 2-Prairie Schooler
I am stitching this as a gift. There is a group that was set up to stitch as many of these as possible for a fellow blogger/flosstuber and they are to be mailed out the first of October. I don't want to give her name out as she may possibly read this, I will post that once it has been mailed and received.

Dog Rules for People-Lizzie Kate
I have been participating in a Lizzie Kate Round Robin for the past few months and this week I received my project back. I still have to stitch the top and bottom line for it to be finished but I am thrilled with it. This week will be busy and not sure I will get it finished as I need to get out the Prairie Schooler Santa and a Band Sampler I am working on for another round robin but I hope to be able to get this done by the end of October.

I only bought thread this week for a few projects as far as haul goes. However, I did get a fabulous basket to keep my wips in. I purchased it at the At Home store in the laundry storage area. I saw it a few weeks ago and kept thinking about it so I went back for it. It has wheels on it and is deep so it will hold quite a few wips. I filled it with 10 of those slim plastic cases and about 10 of the mesh project bags and they all fit. I failed to take a picture of it filled, but will do that for the next update. Here is a pic of what it looks like.

I hope you all have a great week filled with stitching!

Haul

Lakeside Needlecrafts was having a sale with many items on clearance and I got all of these with shipping from the UK for only 17.50! I am a huge England fan and I could not pass these up for that price.

I saw this pattern stitched a couple of years ago and fell in love with it and 123 stitch had it as one of the daily sale items. And you know you can't just buy one item when you order online.

Marriage of the Minds-The Drawn Thread

Love Never Fails-Barbara Ana

Fabric for Love Never Fails

Ebay purchase-The Farmers Alphabet by Prairie Schooler

Gina of Gina's Unique Boutique had a needleminder sale and the ones I ordered came in a few days ago.
Be sure and go to her etsy shop and check out what she has. Gina has some fabulous things and they are great quality.

Witch Faces-I apologize as one is upside down
