I'm not sure I ever will. Maybe all I ever wanted to do was collect them.

I could be wrong but it doesn't look like a Bent Creek to me.<br /><br />Your new start is gorgeous too.

I used to HATE stitching lettering--back in my Lizzie Kate days (I think because of how curly-cue the letters are)--but now I love verses. Unless they're over one. And make mine a large pizza at the end of it, rather than the ham sandwich. ;)<br /><br />I love your Shakespeare's WIP!<br /><br />Hope you & the Stew-Meister have a good weekend.Siobhánhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14664728276490470180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-80812423299980376692010-04-23T04:45:29.491-04:002010-04-23T04:45:29.491-04:00That was a beautiful trip down memory lane.

I started with a HUGE piece for a beginner (I have a tendency to jump in with both feet and worry about the consequences later lol)with three black scotty dogs sitting on a chair. I gave it to my mum....she loves it....even 25 years later....I think it is gruesome! I have an aversion to dog stitcheries...I'm sure it is from that one!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-18444576666379994432010-04-22T23:40:00.060-04:002010-04-22T23:40:00.060-04:00loved the stitching stroll past the houses.......s...loved the stitching stroll past the houses.......smilingcorinnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02529649271194301849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-82630227513298381532010-04-22T23:37:15.770-04:002010-04-22T23:37:15.770-04:00Those sure are some cute houses you 'built'...Those sure are some cute houses you 'built' in the early days.<br /><br />Your latest project looks just cute with the little pink house.Misteahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00041179627345053724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-54093297136206227622010-04-22T21:53:26.621-04:002010-04-22T21:53:26.621-04:00Coni,

I keep hearing bloggers discussing "over one" and "over two". What is that?? <br /><br />CaseyCaseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10338094749624731303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-39939984789412244572010-04-22T21:22:55.014-04:002010-04-22T21:22:55.014-04:00Well Coni, I am sure I speak for us all when we ex...Well Coni, I am sure I speak for us all when we express our thanks that you are back to yourself, stitching mightly, and blogging up a storm.

Love your photos of Stewey - he's a little stinker peeing thru the screen!

I haven't stitched any houses - no, that isn't true. I am currently working on Gay Ann Rogers Townhouse Sewing Case (needlepoint).

My sister came over Monday afternoon and I showed her some of my stash, trying to get an idea of something to stitch for her, and she said "I would like to get into something like that but everything looks so country". LOL... <br /><br />I love your new start and am looking forward to seeing more as you go...Juleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09468809752882660075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-50352148064935490922010-04-22T15:37:25.728-04:002010-04-22T15:37:25.728-04:00I love houses on samplers, but they can get a bit ...I love houses on samplers, but they can get a bit boring to stitch.

The only problem is I cannot stitch a house without screwing something up at least 2 times. The door or windows are in the wrong place, too many or too few rows of something somewhere and yet I keep on loving 'em!DonnaTNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16632155244794417553noreply@blogger.com
