Last night I put the final stitch into Plum Street Samplers "Hare's Winter". (I changed the colors of their little outfits in anticipation of Sochi.) I also used one ply of light blue and one ply of dark blue to come up with the look for the border stitches.
It's too cold to get out of the Happy Chair, so I will probably pick up Come Tarry for a few hours tonight. Tomorrow I will head to the studio for a few new things for the basket. I'm percolating ideas for Olympic stitching, so stay tuned! (Aunt Chrissy and I had to postpone our get-together, but are determined to do so this weekend.) I know it will be a canvas work piece, and I know it will be red, white, and blue, but that's about as far as I've gotten.
I love what you've done with the changes to their outfits! I am so excited about the Olympics starting too. Prime Olympic stitching time!
ReplyDeleteOh, they are so cute. Sorry you are freezing. We still haven't had winter yet.
ReplyDeleteVery cute!
ReplyDeleteIt's even going to be cold (well, OUR version of cold) here in the Houston area tonight and tomorrow.
Stay warm!
What a cute idea, changing their outfit colors! Love it!

ReplyDeleteCongrats on your finish! The color changes are great. I agree, enough winter already!!! Good luck on picking out new items for the stitching basket. It will be fun to see what you choose.
ReplyDeleteLove this project..... I feel bad for all of you in the cold and snow...that is why I left New England and now live in the warm Arizona sunshine.....stay warm and stitch.
ReplyDeleteLovely, and again, done so quickly!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the finish. I also can't wait for Olympic stitching time, wish I didn't have to work. stay warm.
ReplyDeleteCute--love the color changes. I told a friend I was breaking up with winter but she told me he was a stalker. I fear she's right.
