Hello dear friends,
It's time to show what I stitched for International Hermit & Stitch weekend . If you don't know what IHSW is, its a SAL which was started by Joysze at Random Ramblings .Here is how she describes it "International Hermit and Stitch Weekend takes place every 3rd full weekend of each month, from Friday till Sunday. In our very busy and hectic lives, IHSW is a chance for us to squirrel some time away for ourselves and "Hermit and Stitch." It is a time set aside to take care of us and our love for stitching."
Weekend in my part of the world is on Friday & Saturday, so I will be stitching from Thursday to Saturday and post on Sundays whenever I participate in IHSW.
I had a busy weekend this time: hosting a dinner for a cultural group my husband is part of and attending my bi weekly crafty meetup. Well I enjoy hosting people and seeing my craft friends, so nothing to complaint about.
I think my crafty bug is back with full spirit. I'm enjoying stitching again and stitching for longer than 15 mins. in one go :)
I added few colors to the pansies and grape hydrangeas, stitched the water at the bottom of vases while working on WIP "Fabulous Florals" and I feel I can finish this project by month end if everything goes well.
Here is a before and after picture :
And now another good news, we have public holidays from tomorrow, 20th Aug to Saturday, 25th Aug.
Do you think I can complete this project in 6 day holidays?
Will I start something new - another cover kit?
Keep those guesses coming..
Have a good Sunday everyone.

Beautiful piece and you made so much progress!
ReplyDeleteI had wondered about that empty spot on the right! Glad to see it's being filled in now haha~ It can totally be finished six days! But I will guess you start another cover kit for Smalls! I should take after you...

ReplyDeleteLovely stitching, Mini--the addition of the pansy is so lovely. Glad your crafting mojo has returned :)
