TUSAL 5.3.11

Here is a snap of my TUSAL for the May New Moon.  Sadly, my stitching mojo got up and went about a month ago and hasn’t returned…


I am due to receive a Round Robin any day so maybe I can get back into the swing of stitching.

TUSAL 4.03.2011

Well, my blogging mojo has been a bit wanting lately.  I have been doing more reading than stitching the last month or so, but did complete a Round Robin piece, so I had a little bit of green and white snippits to add to my TUSAL jar.

It’s been a while…

 

…since my last post.  Golly, I hadn’t realized that my last post was almost a month ago. 

 

My stitching mojo has been all but non existent the last few weeks.  I did manage to finish up a Round Robin piece from the ILCS Yahoo group I am in.  The piece is Arlette’s who lives in France.  I am not sure about the designer, but her piece is stitched on 28 CT. Mint Green Cashel Linen (my fav.) using green and white DMC.  Each section is a different little sampler and is going to be a really pretty piece when completed.  Here is a snap of my section:

I also did a little stitching on my Crazy 15 Challenge and have a blurb on my Crazy 15 Challenge Blog.

And now for my Totally Useless Stitch Along for the month of February thru March 3.. I have added quite a bit of orts, some thread bands and even a broken button (had to replace one on HunnyB's sleeve) I tossed in for good measure...

It’s been a while…

….since my last update but I have been busy stitching.  I deviated from my Challenge projects stitching a cute little needle case.  I can’t decide what name to stitch on it… whether to gift it to a friendly stitcher or keep it myself??  I love fantasy pieces with dragons, fairies, castles, wizards and have stitched several pieces along this theme…

 

This little piece is by Teresa Wentzler and was such fun to stitch.  The entire dragon is stitched using a blended needle with purples and blues.  There are also specialty stitches in white threads and beads to accent. 

 

I have posted updates of my Challenge pieces finished this last couple of weeks on my other page so check them out. 

Speaking of Frogs

Day 3’s project is the cutest little scissors case and I just love the wording…I Don’t Do Frogging….I Do Reverse Stitching…  I think I will adopt this as my theme of rippin out stitches when those little errors in counting occur.

 

Here is a snap of the two sections that will be stitched together with a ribbon threaded through scissors.  I just love the polka dot lining fabric.  It is really a neat little concept.  I would love to keep these but they will be a gift to one of my fellow stitchers.

TUSAL ~ February

Ahhh,  the TUSAL aka. Totally Useless Stitch A Long ..
Here is a snap of my TUSAL on February 3, 2011.  I have added several snips, orts, some thread bands and a string or two of fabric threads.
