Thank you so much for tuning in to the Cozyegg flosstube/podcast! In this episode I share a Thanksgiving start and a finish, and November WIPs along with my December plans.
Finishes
Prairie Schooler Lions (from Two by Two II) for our EGA Opportunity Knocks piece. Stitched with DMC on unknown linen.
Mary’s Sampler II by Plum Street Samplers (previous finish) – GAST on 40ct Vintage Light Examplar. This was the Sunday Mystery Sampler Paulette posted on her blog back in 2013.
Blackbird’s Winter Delivery (Loose Feathers No. 5) by Blackbird Designs – GAST on 30ct R&R Cranberry Bog with S/L Ruby 11/0 beads. Thanksgiving Day start. I used GAST Raven instead of DMC 310 and I used GAST Currant instead of Cherry Bark. Used beads I had on hand instead of the called for Mill Hill #02045
WIPs
Sampler Sisters of the Thread by Primitive Needle – called for GAST & Weeks on 40ct Picture This Plus Mello
Steotchalong 6 by Steotch – DMC on a 32ct grey dyed fabric.
Anniversaries of the Heart by Blackbird Designs – working on Moonlight Visitor (block 9). CC, GAST, Weeks & DMC on 40ct Vintage Examplar by Lakeside.
What’s in this Project Bag?
A parade of ornament charts I want to stitch for Flossmas.
2016 Stitch Niche ornament – Merry Stitchmas
Mary Beale A&E ornament – I stitched this once as a gift and want to stitch it again for myself.
Gold Crown by Rosewood Manor – JCS Ornament Issue 2014 – stitched once for a guild exchange, want to stitch it again for myself.
Catherine Theron Peace ornament from the 2002 JCS Ornament issue – I stitched this once for the guild ornament exchange and it’s another one I want to stitch for myself.
Winter Acorn by Cross-Eyed Cricket – I’ve started this over one but it’s kind of a slog.
Une Croix, le Temps d’un Thé – Tree ornament from Réf. 1312 – stitched once for a gift and I want to stitch it again for myself. I bought this pattern at the Paris Needlework Show.
Blackbird Designs portion from Blessings Be Thine – stitched this for an EGA ornament exchange and want to stitch it again for myself.
Milady’s Needle Yuletide Hornbooks – I’m stitching the snowman on the blue fabric and just have a small start.
…and two pairs of scissors
