Margaret done, Sarah started

Here is Margaret -- so pretty!

Margaret W. Brown by Milady's Needle
40ct Vintage Palomino
AVAS 100/3

I love the colors!


And I've started something new too.  Sarah Elizabeth Brooke by my friend Tanya at The Scarlett House.


I'm using 40ct something -- I think Homespun??  Not sure.  And the called for Belle Soie silks.


If you want to see the whole thing, go to Tanya's blog here.  It's so pretty, right?

Here's Mia having fun in a box.


Thanks for stopping by and saying hi.  I hope everyone in the US has a wonderful Thanksgiving.  And that everyone has a great week!

Big finish, small start, and my cuties

First off, here's Ann Smith in all her glory.

Ann Smith Sampler by the Scarlet Letter
36ct Light Examplar
AVAS called for

Isn't she pretty?  (Sorry I'm a bad photographer.)




I'm so glad I stitched her!

Now I know the question is, what's next?  Here she is.


She's Margaret W. Brown by Milady's Needle.  I'm using 40ct vintage Palomino and AVAS 100/3.  It's my first time using the 100/3 -- nice stuff!


The linen color is washed out in the photos, but hopefully you get the idea.

My stitching sisters have suggested I have a Margaret sampler wall.  I may have to do that!  

I think the boy child is feeling at loose ends now that the play is over.  All this free time!  lol!  I keep telling him he needs to use that free time to do his college applications and practice for possible auditions. Hopefully he'll listen.  The boys did manage to visit another college on Friday, so that's good.  So far, the boy child has liked all the colleges we've visited.

I think Mia is very happy to have the boy child around more.


What do you think?  :D


Thanks as always for stopping by and saying hi.  I hope everyone has a great week!
