After I made this wall hanging, I knew I had to redo the embroidery. The letters were too chunky and bugged me. A do-over had to happen.

Tick-tock...

Two years later, I finally got it finished. So much better...

Next up, get the binding on Naomi's quilt, then I can show it to you. =) 

Have a happy Tuesday!

I am getting some things accomplished during my quiet time.  =)

The Granny Squares blocks I made a while ago got put together into a flimsy. I used sweet Trish's (Notes of Sincerity) tutorial. 

It was bigger than I expected, so I made a small baby blanket with some of the squares. I started quilting it, didn't like it and took it apart. Yup, that's how I roll...

I received a gift of 30's fabric by a friend who has asked to remain anonymous. I have some plans for them whirling around in my brain....

 I've been working on my Betsy's Closet stitchings. I am less than happy with how this block looks. Jenny of Elefantz shared some tips. 

The tips added to this lamp and magnifying glass

has greatly improved the quality of my stitching. Amazing what you can do when you can see! 

I may or may not redo the other block. I'll make that decision after all the blocks are finished. 

Have a great day, friends...I am thankful for all of you. 

Really.

My words are few these days. Nothing is wrong, just quiet. Sometimes I need to be inside a safe cocoon. =) 

I finished this one up yesterday. The thread I used for the words look too chunky. I don't hate it, so I am going to leave well enough alone and not redo the whole thing. I reserve the right to change my mind on that, though...

The big picture. 

Lets Go Fly a Kite! This one I really love! 

Love this monkey playing peek-a-boo. 

Have a safe Labor Day weekend!

Pretty threads in a jar....

First block of Circles of Life project. Pattern can be found in Jenny of Elefantz's shop.  

Sunday dress in Besty's Closet by Brenda Riddle. 

I'm almost done adding the blanket stitch to this project. 

Monday means laundry and I had better get back to it! =)
