Some January FFOs

I have a few January FFOs and may have a few more before the end of the month.  All I have to do is get my rear in gear and sit down at the sewing machine and knock them out.  I have three that are ready to be sewn together.  Let's see what I can do about them.

I'm not captioning all the information about these finishes.  If you really want to know the fabric and floss you can find that information in previous posts.

After figuring out an easy way to do the border of these I enjoy stitching them.  They are pretty easy and only take a few days.

Yesterday I started stitching Blackbird Designs Easter Parade.  Only got a little of the border stitched.  I'll get more done today with 2 football games    GO  Kansas City Chiefs.
