Dreams

I had a hard time deciding what to stitch next. That is unusual. My next project is often lined up well before I have a finish but I got off track somehow. It took some doing, but I finally decided on Dandy Dreams by Silver Creek Samplers. I'm thinking this will make a darling pillow when I am through! Yay ~ a new start!

Thank you so much for the kind words about my latest finishes! Anne has received my giveaway and Jackie has received my RAK. It is such a pleasure to stitch for my blog friends. I adore surprising someone with a hidden giveaway or a random act of kindness. My blog friends are the best!



Thank you for visiting my blog today!

Ditto about blog friends. I count it one of life's blessings that the world can feel so "close" through internet friends.

Great new start... I love that yellow green color. :D

You latest stitching project has a motto that I know I sometimes need to be reminded of. I really like the letters on this one too. Kind of modern and funky looking.

Thank you so much for the RAK! I just love it and will think of you every time I look at it. I never anticipated making friends when I started blogging. It's definitely the cherry on top!

Excellent choice! I love the flowers in this.

Hmmm - having trouble finding a new start. Spend some time perusing the blogs. I am sure you will find something that you can't live without lol.

I love your choice of new start! Silver Creek designs are so cute. I'm in the process of deciding what will be my next stitch. I'm torn between two designs. Hopefully I can make up my mind soon.

It's always fun starting a new stitchy project, but as you say, the decision of which one to choose can be difficult, so many lovely designs out there......lovely choice,

happy stitching, lily x

Margaret said...

I see your post was affected by blogger too. I already commented the first time around before this was "deleted" but I'll say it again. Love the new start!

P.J. said...

Your work is beautiful, how do you find the time to stitch so many projects. I am curious about the TUSAL jars at the new moon; I am intrigued.

You have a great start. It seems this one is a popular one among the stitcher's. I'm going to put this on my wish list for next year as I am not buying any new patterns this year.
