Christmas Eve by Pickle Barrel Designs scrap 28ct linen recommended WDW floss |
Christmas Love by Lizzie*Kate scrap piece of pale pink 28ct linen my color way |
L*K had recommended WDW floss. I ended up using Crescent Color.
My conversions are - Cayenne to Pink Champagne
Holly to Apple Fritter
Linen to Snowball
Monkey Grass to Frozen Margarita
Should I rename Christmas Love to Valentine Love? Sorry the picture washed out - weird sunlight this morning.
I've gotten my SAL stitching done for the week. And have decided to start 'It's Snow Cold' by LHN. For some reason I don't have the correct blue for it and had to wing it a bit too.
This week has been the week of cemeteries! I told you about going to PA on Monday for my first. Tuesday found me a few miles from home at another, Wednesday - a few miles to the west, and yesterday my sister and I hit 4 south of town. That's 7 cemeteries in four days. And we did a drive by on one north!
I've been told this is true genealogy! I've learnt a few things - 1) Never wear flip flops, 2) Don't take small children - they want to play with the flowers and sit on the graves, 3) Wait until the dew is off the grass, 4) Make sure the camera is charged and 5) Always take paper and chalk to rub the graves if needed!
It's about time to turn on the game - may your team win today...unless your team is the California Golden Bears!
Hope this weekend finds you happy and healthy!

Cute finishes!! I am still *not* patiently waiting for mine :)
O-H-I-O Lets go!!
Your ornaments are lovely. I have been stuck on quilting and embroidery but have a few cross stitch projects waiting for completion and several waiting to be started. Have a great weekend.
I haven't received my JCS yet, either, but I do like the designs you chose to stitch. I'd probably stitch the year instead of "eve" on the first. Your color changes are beautiful and can be either Christmas or Valentine so you get to keep it on display a loooong time. Smart lady!
Great post. You are totally honest and very funny. Made my day
I love the way you have done Christmas Love. I looked that one right over, I got my mag yesterday. I am going to stitch the one with all the snow, pink bushes/trees and the fawn.
Great finishes! I am stitch on the SAL tonight. I didn't find to many my taste either.. Have a great weekend of stitching!!
I haven't seen the new issue yet, Denise... Think I will take a good look at it before I decide whether or not to purchase it.
Love your finishes and the changes made on Christmas Love!!
Your finishes are great!
Lovely finishes. I am still digesting the issue and looking at what I might want to stitch.
oooo nice ornaments you have made and well done on your conversions ....
love the facts re genealogy ..lol
love mouse xxxx
Lovely projects! I have a copy waiting for me at the Strawberry Sampler ~ hopefully tomorrow I can run in and pick it up!
Great finishes and the color changes you made to "Love" look great. Really softens it up!
