A Little Christmas Finish

Gentle Friends, I finished up "Tidings" last week... it was a fun stitch and so seasonal.  I often want to stitch some in "season" but things either overlap or I just procrastinate until its too late and just don't get to it or whatever.  But, this year I was on point all around and here tis'.....

"Tidings of Great Joy" by La-D-Da

I switched out some of the called for floss:

WDW Baked Apple to WDW Red Rocks

GAST Tarnished Gold 

GAST Wood Trail

DMC 3782 to GAST Shaker White

GAST Carriage Black to WDW Gun Metal

GAST Moss to WDW Collards

Stitched on 40ct LL Vintage Pecan Butter

I also made a few little tweaks as I stitched along that made more sense to me and the way I think the piece should look... but they are small changes and scattered. I'm thinking that I'll get this finished up into a small Christmas pillow instead of framing.....  I did get started on a new project It's a traditional sampler that comes from Shakespear's Peddler that Therese did a few years ago.  Sadly I've no snap of my progress so I'll just save that until stitching Monday.

A Little Stitchin'

Gentle Friends... still moving along on Tidings... here's a snap...

The tea was very tasty, but I still think that their Anastasia Blend is my favourite.  Tsarevna is a nice change and fun for the Christmas Season!!

A Little More Stitchin'

Gentle Friends, so how about a really craptastic snaperoo of my progress... 

was that a resounding yes???  Here ya go...

...it's blurry and the colours are off but you get the idea... it's an easy peasy stitch and fun to work on...and very relaxing to just sort of stitch away on the repetitive flower/vine border!!

A Little Christmas Stitchin'

Gentle Friends, here's my start on a Christmas piece I've had in my stash for a few years...

... It's called "Tidings of Great Joy" from La D Da.  I'm stitching this on the bottom half of the piece of 40ct Vintage Pecan Butter I used to stitch the BBD piece I just finished up... it was still on top so what the heck why not!! I shifted/adjusted some of the overdyed flosses from the called for to more traditional Christmas colours.
