Easter on my mind

I'm totally skipping over St. Patrick's Day since I don't have any stitching for this holiday (something I obviously need to remedy), and moved onto Easter.  

I took this 2011 finish...

With Thy Needle & Thread Bunny & Co., using my own silk conversion
on mystery 40 count linen

And turned it into this...

Please excuse the artistic photo glare.

Just a simple pillow finish using hand-dyed felted wool, without any extras.  It was already borderline too big for a pillow finish, but I didn't want it as a wall hanging or framed.

Ides of March

Hey, Friends!

We’re just past the Ides of March.  Does time fly by for everyone else as quickly as for me?  Hard to believe! 

 Here are some March finishes.  The Prairie Schooler, St. Patric Clover is finished into a little pillow with a beaded trim.  

Next is Heart in Hand, St. Patrick Bird pillow with a bit of ric rack and tiny star buttons.

And finally, here is the March Word Play by With thy Needle & Thread, framed and now hung on my office door. 

Peace♥Love♥Joy

Happy stitching to all!!

Crow by Primitive Betty

Well, those twenty eight days vanished in a blur, didn't they?  Just ignore the fact that my end of February post is actually a beginning of March one!  What is really irritating is that, yet again, this is an Illinois-made ornament and only needed a seam down the right hand side to complete it!

So without further ado...... I give you Crow by primitive betty!  Click on the link to see Betty's wonderful little designs.

February update...

Whew!!! I didn't expect to complete these all in time, i mean before the end of February.
Happy dancing here!!!
I still haven't finish off into ornamnets the two christmas designs i stitched last January though...
Happy weekend to all!
