First of all, thank you all soooo much for all of your wonderful comments on Quaker Garden. I really appreciate them all! I also appreciate each of you for taking the time to stop in a read my blog. I also want to thank all of you that commented on my Bay Sampler and advised that I live with it for a few days. I will do that, which is why I moved on to Mystery 9. I hope that a little distance will give me some clarity with regard to the sail. Here is a pic of what the Bay Sampler looks like when finished.
This is Bay Sampler by The Workbasket. It really is a beautiful colorful piece. So, I will live with my Wood Smoke sail and see how I like it later. I may even stitch some of the other parts and see how it all looks once it’s put together. So, as to the reason I am awesome… I finally have links in my sidebar, and a Weatherpixie to keep me company and a list of my current reading and current stitching projects. I am so excited! Thanks to Renee who pointed me in the direction of Blogrolling, but who also explained how to add the links in one at a time, should I want to. I just feel such a sense of accomplishment!
I am grateful for coffee with good friends!
it is the first time that I read your blog.Your embroideries are really marvellous!
I’m sure your Bay Sampler will turn out wonderfully no matter what you decide to do.
I believe the Lanarte animals from my RR are only available in Europe as small kits. You can probably find them on e-bay as well.
I think your bay sampler is coming along swimmingly.. looks great!
So how did the cake turn out?
Your Bay Sampler and Mystery look great! I love the colors in Bay Sampler. Hopefully that Wood Smoke with either grow on you or you will find the perfect replacement color.
The Bay Sampler is just beautiful and I think you are doing a magnificent job on it! You will just have to see which color you really feel most comfortable with. I think we are all critical of our own work, which makes it so nice to have others give their opinions. I so appreciate your really nice compliment on my blog today! It meant so much to know that someone who also stitches thinks my work is good. I know your Bay Sampler will be perfect when you finish it. I enjoy watching your progress! Debby
You are awesome!
Michelle, your blog looks awesome. Isn’t blogrolling the coolest? I was so happy to learn about it too. Looking at Bay Sampler I was suprised to see how little room the ship takes up, there is a lot of design in that design. How big is it? It looks very cool and the colors are fantastic in it! Ann.
I love the Bay Sampler design and found you through the blog of the lady who is also stitching it. I think your chosen colours look fine!
Michelle-your Quaker Garden is beautiful. Makes me want to pull mine out and put in a few stitches tonight.
Regarding Bay Sampler, this is in my to do pile, I think living with it for now is a good idea. I mean what if you waste all that time frogging it only to determine you liked it that way? I think it looks nice, I’m going to use something other than SNC when I finally get around to stitching this so I dread trying to convert those very difficult to match threads.
Your stitching is just beautiful.
