Another Finish

Here’s just a little sampling of what I have been working on the past couple of weeks. I have finally finished my “Fir Tree Bienvenue.” It seemed like all I did was stitch trees and snow… but it was fun. It was done on 32 ct. Smoky Pearl Linen. Now I just need to frame it.
And here is a bit more of my Eiffel Tower. This one is being stitched on 40ct. cream linen. It’s a bit more strenuous on the eyes, but I like the delicacy of the 40ct on this one. My DH chose the antique blue thread I am using on it.
I am nearly finished with another something….but it is a surprise and I shall have to save it for next time. I am longing to begin something for Spring, but haven’t found just the right thing yet. Guess I’ll just continue my stitching “out of season.”

I know what your surprise is but I won’t tell. It’s nice to see that you have made such progress. I haven’t started mine yet as DH and I are about to pack up and move north of where you live!

Hello Karen,
All your stitching pieces are so cute, delicate and…my english words are not appropriate to write what I would like to say… I went through your blog this morning and I realized I missed some of them. I also like that you change your banner (?) at the top of your blog. I started to do the same thing as I learnt how to do it…Ahhhhhhh, computers…! Yes, nature is waking up! I am happy that you can be back to some time for yourself and enjoy fun with your friends. Friends are so precious!

Thanks for visiting my blog! I’ve enjoyed browsing your blog. Wonderful finish — just beautiful! And I love your Eiffel Tower piece too! The LHN ornaments are so much fun! I only have one of the charts, but I’m hoping to get more of them.

Hello! What a cute bunny! Hoppy Easter! Hee hee!
To answer your question your second comment will count as a second entry if you blog about my giveaway with a link to the giveaway post! There you have it! There is the answer to your rhetorical question! Are you already for Easter? I am not I need to go grocery shopping and get some healthy food and some chocolate. I can’t get just any chocolate….no I have to go to the next two towns over to get some lavendar infused chocolate. Sounds gross? Like it would taste like soap??? But it does not! It tastes quite good if you like cooking with lavender!
Happy Easter!
