Rose Pincushion

Finally got this finished. I know, its not much and should not have taken me 5 days but the directions for finishing made this turn out smaller than the opening so I had to dig out my cord maker to make some trim to fill the space.

Never did quite under stand that saying but it seems I've been doing the happy dance a lot lately :) Here is my completed Jim Wurth dodecagon, #5 Hearts and Flowers. Despite the unseasonably warm weather I was found watching movies and stitching much of the day today and managed to get this one finished up, Yay!! I also did work on an ornament for the Christmas Ornament Stitch along but I haven't quite finished that one up. I may yet do that tonight if I still feel like stitching. Hope you all had a great weekend! :)

Mojave Finished!! :)

Tada! I did the finishing stitches on my lunch break yesterday. I LOVE the finished look on this one. I brought it to my Monday stitch group and everyone was drooling over the colors and stitches :) I had taken it in when it first arrived, as that's where I first heard about it. One of the ladies wanted all of us to order them and stitch them together but that fizzled. They all love the 2 I've done so far but its just not the "style" of a few of them I guess for lack of a better way to put it. One, for example, primarily does very whimsical designs which this certainly is not so I wouldn't expect her to want to stitch this one. Last night they were asking me what colors the next one would be, umm... heck if I know, I've only seen the 3 in the advertisement and that still doesn't tell me much other than the fact that I will see the other 2 designs at some point. ;) Guess I could have taken my photo in a "portrait" format so they'd line up

Got Coronation finshed yesterday when I got home from work. I'm extremely happy with the finished piece, as I've said before the photo just didn't do it justice. I hope I've done a bit better with my shot here, I zoomed it in more than usual so you can see some of the detail in the stitching. I am taking it Monday to show everyone as they were talking about ordering these but no one else got around to it. After that its off to the finisher. I don't mind finishing ornaments myself but I don't like working with canvas. The finisher my mom uses is pretty reasonable so off it will go.
