Stitchy Surprises!!



I've got a few things to share! I received a package from Marie for the HoE2 Winter Quaker Exchange. This package came at the perfect time for I had such a stressful day at work. The package just brightened my evening. She stitched me this beautiful floss tag. My first one! I haven't tried this finishing technique yet, but have want to. She also included some wonderful extras which will come in handy! Thanks Marie!


Some time back I showed off a F&S piece Diane in CA stitched for me. I just loved the font she used on the personalized square. Well, I had this awesome package today! She stitched up the alphabet and finished it as a pinkeep - her first one at that! Diane, your pinkeep is just perfect. I also love the fob and floss tag you included! I know I will be using them often! I can't think you enough for this act of kindness! I will never forget this!

I don't have any other stitching to share - it's all been secret stitching. Hope to hear if they arrive safely in their new home soon and then I'll show pics.

Until next time - Happy Stitching!

Prairie Schooler Exchange :)


I received this fabulous package from Laurence, all the way from France. Laurence was my secret partner in the Prairie School Exchange being hosted by Becky SC. Laurence made me this wonderful needle book. I just love the design and the technique used to finish the book. I'm going to treasure this always.

The other pic is a WIP of my LHN - FSTSS. I've got to finish the top border and the last house (which my LNS is holding for me). I'm hoping to get by there on Thursday to pick it up. This piece is really nice to stitch and the colors are so pretty.

Sorry to leave it short! I hope to have some more to share by the weekend. I thank all of my fellow bloggers and the stitcher's that visit my blog. Thanks for visiting and leaving your comments.

Until next time,
Happy Stitching
