Hi Nicole, Thanks so much for sharing your conversion for In All Things Be Exceedingly Diligent. I don't know why, but I've always thought that was just done in browns. Now I'm excited to get the chart and work on it. As always, your wips are beautiful. I'm also planning to start Mary 395. I think it's all the lovely motifs at the bottom that call to me. Love seeing Ginger. Hope your back feels better soon!

It was nice to see Ginger! Oreo’s personality reminds me so much of our kitty Miss Minerva. She was an orange tabby we had with from a kitten until she was just over 20 years old. She would sit on your lap, when SHE wanted to. Sometimes she would beg to be petted by butted her head against my hand, but after a few pats, would turn around to nip at me to say “Ok, That’s enough!” We lost her several years ago. I still miss her. All your lovely work makes me want to go stitch all the things even more! ☺️

@suzannedeasey36884 жыл бұрын
I love all of your starts. I have many of them and don't know how I will ever get done what I have collected. But shopping is half the fun. At least that is my rationalization. I have had Dutch Beauty in my stash for several years. I purchased the kit on ebay. I looked at it several times over the past few years and then put it away since it is a massive undertaking. The kit includes DM C and the linen. I have been working on it for three days now and am really loving it! Heaven only knows when I will finish it but at least I have started it. The directions are difficult since it has been translated in more than one language. I got through the first page of border before I realized that I was supposed to use two strands of floss. Oh well I am leaving it for now and will go back later to change it. Happy stitching and hope your back feels better.

Your stitching is always so beautiful. Do you usually use tent stitch rather than a full cross stitch when stitching your samplers? Can you explain why you decide to stitch one verses the other? Thanks!

full stitches can sometimes look a little crowded on smaller count linen. My stitches don't look too bad, but it may have looked a little better to do a half stitch. It's really just personal preference.

It was a fun surprise to see your post so early. I hope your back tones down really soon. Maybe slip in a little heating pad unless your weather is too hot! Oh, Ginger! Oh, those little "feets" in mid-air while she sleeps. I love her! I think the redwork samplers are amazing, and they would be peaceful sometimes to remove one aspect of the stitching and just stitch. I plan to craft all day, too. I am going to crochet , make a junk journal, and kit up a new cross stitch I bought. It is "Coffee First." Need to do it while I can still find the little spoon charm! lol. Have a good day. Stay safe and feel better. P.S. That blueberry scone sounds so good! lol

Omg I swear, I’m so in love with Ginger!!!! She’s sleeping now on her back with her paws in the air. So so adorable. You made me log on to FirePoppies online store and I purchased the last Mary 395. It’s way too big so I know I’ll never stitch in this life, lol, but I felt kinda sad about this Sampler. I’m thinking she may not know who her surname hence 395 so I had to purchase it. Also after your Flosstube is over, I’m heading to your blog for the cotton conversion for the NeedleworkPress chart. Thanks Nicole. I think you might consider making ginger a KZfaq channel to film all her cute moments or an Instagram to post photos of her just being “Ginger”. Smile

OMG the way Ginger is sleeping with her little paws straight up in the air. So cute. Your samplers, as always, are amazing!! I like the idea of how your organize your patterns. This would be really helpful with my quilting patterns, especially organizing by designer since I tend to buy certain ones frequently. Right now, they are all over the place in about 3 spots and then I have a 4th spot with patterns I want to start soon and I kind of ‘kit’ some projects as well that I think I will work on soon but sometimes it sits there for awhile and then I need a piece of fabric and pull it out.
