Follow Thread in Hand by Email. Wednesday, May 20, 2015. Then the insurance adjuster came to tell me that my car is totaled. That means it will cost more to fix it than the car is worth. A minor fender-bender has become a big headache. (Not my fault! We have to decide what to do next. Still thinking . . . So anyway I have been working on my eyelets for Friesland. I'm on the 15th one now. If I worked at it I could finish them today. If I worked diligently I could finish this today too. We'll see. At least...

Thread in Hand: Skipped
http://threadinhand.blogspot.com/2015/08/skipped.html
Follow Thread in Hand by Email. Thursday, August 6, 2015. I skipped blogging yesterday because I went on a short road trip to House of Stitches. I couldn't pass up the opportunity to go to a good stitching shop. It was a fun trip and I loved looking at all the stuff in the shop. I just got some threads and linen and this tiny kit. I made some good progress on a couple of my projects. I finished the green queen and I have a good start on the yellow queen. The Stitching by the Sea box is close to being done.

I basted the top edge down and added a piece of mat board in the bottom. I cut some felt for the the lining. I attached the lining. Three...

Follow Thread in Hand by Email. Wednesday, August 12, 2015. My three queens just needs a few finishing touches and it will be done. I finished stitching the top row and put in two cute birds. I wanted to put flowers on the arch but I wasn't happy with my first try. I want to try a few leaves and /or curlicues to see how that looks. I'm pretty happy with how it has turned out but something else is needed to complete it. Good thing those shops didn't have it or I would have bought it twice. Duh. A Tale of ...

http://christmassal.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 16, 2011. Hi - I'm new! Thanks so much for letting me join! I'm Tama, and this year I'm trying to stitch all of these (hope the pic doesn't come out too big). Or at least, as many as I can. I've finished one so far:. And have another part of the way done. It's the Christmas Tree one in the second-to-bottom row. Last year I finished quite a few ornaments, but only 14 or so were Christmas ornaments. I'm hoping to do much better this year! Friday, January 14, 2011. Tuesday, January 4, 2011.
