Back from the framers

Just a quickie ....

I picked up 2 finished projects from the framers yesterday.  Now I need to hang them on my wall :)

Shasta's lil darlin's .... and some stitching too.

Well, here they are at almost 2 weeks old.  Shasta's lil darlin's -- fat and happy.

In addition to snuggling puppies, I got some stitching done.  I worked on the Homespun Elegance piece and am almost finished with it.  If you are familiar with the pattern you will notice I changed it a little.  Instead of all the little motiffs scattered to the sides of the house, I adapted part of the GGM sampler and put some of the little figures inside the diamonds.  I like this better -- more orderly, imo, plus they look like pictures hanging on the walls inside the house.   The threads are Vicki Clayton silks and the fabric is 28 ct linen (don't know the name of the color).
