Daffy's Stitchy Friends

Woot, woot!

Today, I received my Lizzie* Kate exchange from Michele of Just Another Stitching blog. I am really thrilled. Isn't this the best floss tag ever? I freakin' LOVE ladybugs and the colors in this tag are just gorgeous. Then, to top it off are the sweetest floss cards made from scrapbook papers. OMG! Thank you so much, Michele, I'm so pleased!


WIP
Here is a little update on the Traveling pattern. I'm not finding the time I thought I'd have the past couple of weeks and my mood is definitely off. Give me my stitchy time ~ or else!



Just another shot of the WIP. I swear, I centered this; Gremlins came, when I wasn't looking, and moved all my stitching two inches to the left.

They had to have.


I don't make mistakes.



Thank you for visiting my blog today!

Centering Gremlins, those dudes live at my house. Sorry they took a summer vacation to your place.

Great floss tag, and those paper floss card are wonderful. The beaver paper is killing me! lol

Theresa said...

The floss tag is absolutely adorable!!!! Lucky you~~

I'm sure your WIP moved itself to the left. It happens to me, too~~ ;-)

Loralynn said...

The gremlins were just jealous of your lovely stitching, so felt the need to give you a little "push" so to speak!

Julianne said...

Sharon,

What a cute floss tag. I agree that the colors are great!

Angela said...

Love the floss tag! That's funny about the gremlins, I have had them visit once or twice too :)

Becky K in OK said...

Great exchange. I love the floss tags also.

Centering? Well, I have no idea why off center happens. All I know is that IT DOES! Guess I can't count.

Oh holy carp I simply LOVE those floss tags!!!!!! What a GREAT idea for scrapbook paper! I wonder how she made those things...I need to find that out...enquiring minds want to know...great exchange!

Pumpkin said...

Boo to those Gremlins :(

Brigitte said...

What a wonderful little floss tag. Very nice gift. And your WIP looks so great on that fabric.

valerie said...

Carolyn NC said...

I'm with you on the centered stitching - had that happen one too many times for it to be me!!! I love your floss tags - awesome exchange!

Carol R said...

Gorgeous floss tag and cards!

Traveling pattern is looking good too.

Sadie said...

Nice progress on the travelling pattern, love the fabric you are stitching that on. Hope the gremlins have disappeared, never to return again!
Very nice exchange :-)

Angela said...

Love the floss tag.

The colours you are using in the travelling pattern are gorgeous.

Annie said...

Very cool tags. They would brighten anyone's day.

I know what you mean about needing your stitching fix! It truly works as therapy.

And I sympathize with the frog situation. I've done my share of frogging the past couple of weeks and usually just for a small error in placement.

Heidi said...

I love that floss tag! I still need to find some of the eyelets and make some. I got two rings from Harmien but they are very bare. :-( Loving your Flossy lady...lol. I agree it MUST have been the stitching gremlins that moved your stitching off center.

Hugs ~
Heidi

Your WIP is wonderful, I love seeing pieecs come to life. I thought I was the only one who had pesky Gremlins:)...happy stitching..hugs, Linda

Kathy W said...

What a wonderful site you have here. Your work is beautiful. I tried cross stitching but my eye sight is so bad I can't see well enough to do those small stitches. Nice to meet a fellow Okie. =)

Michele said...

love your progress on the Traveling pattern :)

and I'm glad you like the floss tag!

Karen said...

Gorgeous floss tag! A lovely exchange :)

Christine said...

The floss tag is beautiful. Hope the gremlins have moved on by now

Carol said...

Ha Ha! Those gremlins have visited my house, too--it couldn't have been me that counted wrong, could it? Darling floss tag--Michele did a great job!

Julie M said...

Cute WIP and that floss tag is wonderful! Thanks for sharing!

ProdigalWife said...

I love that lady bug too! And I think we've all had those gremlins, someone recently pointed out to me that one of my horizons was tilted, now how did that happen? And look how many followers you have--I'm SOO impressed!

Meari said...

What a CUTE floss tag!! Shame on dem der gremlins... nasty critters.

Siobhán said...

Oh wow, what a beautiful floss tag! I love the scrap floss holders, too. What a clever idea!

Beautiful progress on your WIP! If it isn't the anti-centering gremlins, it's the frogs visiting. Oh, the things a stitcher must put up with!! ;)

Dani - tkdchick said...

What a great JN exchagne!

I do love how your travelling pattern is turning out, the fabric/floss combinations are perfect!

kimstitch3 said...

I love your traveling pic and I love the fabbie too. Did you dye it yourself?

Mel said...

What a cute exchange! I love the handcut floss cards.

Those darn gremlins. Always in kahouts with the frogs. I do hope you can still stitch it up. ;)

Tammy said...

I hate when the gremlins do that!! It's looking great regardless of how they tried to mess you up! The floss tag is great too!

Andrea said...

A wonderful exchange. Love the WIP.

Jackie in UK said...

What a lovely floss tag and floss cards! As long as the stitching fits on the fabric I wouldn't worry about the centreing - how strange :-) It's looking good!
