Blackbird Designs - Easter Parade back from the finisher




I sent this stitching finish to Faye Riggsbee, The Carolina Stitcher a few weeks ago to make into a flat fold.  First I can't believe how fast she finished it and most important of all it is absolutely beautiful.  Love, love, love it.  Thank you Faye for the beautiful finish of my stitched piece.

I have an Easter Finish

Designer:  Prairie Schooler
Design:  Bunnies
Fabric:  16CT White Aida
Floss:  called for DMC
1st Stitch:  03/17/2020
Last Stitch:  03/20/2020
For:  Me
This was a fun little stitch.  It was charted for black fabric.  I didn't have any black fabric so I stitched it on something from my stash.  It was a fun stitch.  Wish I could find a couple of freebie Easter smalls I could stitch.

We are in self quarantine because of the Coronavirus.  Actually most of the country is either in mandatory quarantine or self quarantine.  My stupid sister is still going to work at WAWA,  Can't believe they haven't asked her not to come in.  She is 83 years old and in the high risk group.  Nothing I can do about it but worry.

What am I working on now you might ask?  I started Linen & Threads 2020 Mystery SAL.  Can't remember the name of it.  I am stitching it on 18CT White Aida using GAST Blue Jay.    I may finish January today if I am lucky.  Then I plan on putting it away until the floss I ordered from 123Stitch arrives.  Until I receive the floss I ordered I plan to start Prairie Schooler Easter Bunny design.  I'm looking forward to stitching this little bunny.

Have lots of time to stitch and read since it has been suggested that we self quarantine as much as possible because of the Coronavirs Pandemic which has hit the whole world.  Bob and I are just doing grocery shopping and that is about all we are going out for.
