Country Cottage Needleworks - Red White, Bloom

I finished the stitching on this late last year and couldn't decide how I wanted it finished.  I was thinking a no-sew cube but I really don't have room to store them so I thought of a flat-fold.  I didn't think I had the talent to do a flat-fold so I sent it to the Twisted Stitcher, Vonna Pfeiffer.  I am so in love with the finished project.

Lizzie Kate - 6 Fat Mem back from the framers

I picked this up yesterday from the LNS I go to.  Carolyn DeLong from Just Cross Stitch in Lederach, PA does a wonderful job of framing all my stitching.

Winter is for the Birds

I ove this little ornament.  Unfortunately I stitched it for my sister so I don't get to keep it. She dislikes winter so I know she will appreciate this one. It is from the 2014 Just Cross Stitch ornament issue.  It was a quick little stitch which is what I like in ornament stitching.  I hope this is the last ornament I stitch this year unless I start 2017's ornaments.

Lizzie Kate - August Stamp

I finished this into an ornament for my ornament tree.  It is a little bigger than my normal ornaments but I also think it is the best of these finishes I have done.  The corners or crisp and everything is very even.

Map of France by Sue Hillis

I finally finished Map of France last night.  It seems like I have been stitching on it forever.

Designer: Sue Hillis
Project:  Map of France
Fabric:  16CT Ivory Aida
Floss:  DMC
Started: 
Finished:  07/31/2016
For:  Bob

I don't know when I started this.  I started it once and made a major mistake so I had to start it again and didn't write the date down either time.

One more Map to stitch (Map of Scotland) but I am going to wait a couple of months before I start it.

I am currently stitching a PS Santa and a Lizzie Kate Flip -It August Stamp.  Just started both.  They are small projects so it won't take long for either one.
