First I pulled out all of my cross stitch WIPs. (Nope...not gonna count them. You just can't make me. Thanks to years and years of therapy and some industrial grade pharmaceuticals, I am OK with the fact that there are enough projects in here to last me eleventy seven lifetimes, and I'm just going to stay here on my glittery unicorn eating waffles while y'all contemplate):
(And no...not even gonna THINK about counted canvas or needlepoint stuff...let's just go down one rabbit hole at time today, Dearies!)
Then I pulled a few things for a half-heiney Spring basket:
And re-organized all of my cross stitch kits and charts into baskets for Spring/Summer, Fall, Winter/Christmas, and Misc:
And after a walk in the sunshine, a quick trip to the Michael's, and a cheeseburger at the FiveGuys, a new project selection:
The fabric is "Lemonade"...a 32ct Jobelan from Colour & Cotton, and I can't wait to give it a spin...especially since I enjoyed the last piece so much. All threads are per the chart and DMC.
So that's it for me today. I'm going to go grab a hot and scrubby and then thread up and call it a day! Hope your Thursday is swell and that you'll come tell me all about it!
Wow, you now have me psyched to do the same thing!! See what you have started?
ReplyDeleteLooks like a lot of fun. Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteGood job on the organization! Coni, where did you get your baskets and did they come with the liner? I also like that blue storage 'thingy' in the first picture. Would you share where you got that? I am looking forward to seeing your progress on your new project. That lemonade fabric is a lovely color.
ReplyDeleteI love your posts when you're organizing. It makes me feel like I've done some organizing too! The Lemonade fabric is so fresh and pretty. I'll be watching your stitchy progress.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to the construction of this new beauty! And still marvel at your organizational skills!
ReplyDeleteYou are so organized!

ReplyDeleteI couldn't help but chuckle at your expression 'eleventy seven'. My mom used the expression 'fifty eleven' when she had too many things to do. Love your Jardin Prive choice. Hope today goes well and that you have a fabulous weekend!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your selection. ABC des Maisons!
ReplyDeleteI need you to come and organize my stash!!! And if you won't tell how many WIPs I have, I won't tell on you. :-)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to following your progress on this!
ReplyDeleteI just love getting organized...it makes stitching so much more fun after you clear out the clutter. I recently got one of thos 3 tiered carts at Michaels and have my WIPS in it. So much easier than hauling out baskets and boxes when trying to find things. Love your choice of project, it looks like fun! xo
ReplyDeleteLove this pattern. Will look at adding to my collection of Jardin Prive patterns.:) The linen you used looks lovely but all this time later is sold out. Loving your progress. Happy Stitching.
