The Lord reigns



Well, Hobby Lobby can be added to the list of stores that do not carry a charm that I want to use for this piece.  I have two more stores in town to try:  SAS Fabrics and The West.  I've already checked out 123 stitch online and didn't find anything either. 



I am still very much fighting the desire to start everything at once.  I want to stitch everything, sew everything, paper craft everything, knit everything, crochet everything, , color everything, and sew everything.  I really do need to clone myself at least seven times.

Everything is possible for God

I got this kit from Herrschners.  I can't wait to start this.  





I finished sewing this apron yesterday.  It came from a fabric panel. 





I was making wonderful progress on Bon Appetit.  And, then I realized I made a mistake.  Can you see it?  The words on the right hand side is one square too close to the inner red border.





I had to frog that side completely. 





I've started restitching that side and am enjoying it once again.  A charm is to go between the desserts.  I went to Michael's and Joann's yesterday evening.  But, I couldn't find what I was looking for.  I still have to check in Hobby Lobby and then I will start looking online.

Heaven came down and rescued me

Christmas Angel by MarBek is finished.




There is a companion piece to it.  I plan to stitch it but not right yet.


Today I started Sweet Nothings, Bon appetit.




I'm using an 18 count aida.  It calls for Sampler threads with DMC substitutes listed.  I'm using a combination of DMC and other hand dyed flosses that I have.
