I'm a bit behind with showing my stitching off - last week turned into a bit of a yukky migraine type of week unfortunately. The previous weekend though I had managed to get a couple of Christmas blocks stitched and I thoroughly enjoyed the chain stitch on those. I'm glad to have a couple of blocks finished now as I can properly see the colours that I chose and know that I like them :D
Here's a picture of one of the corner stars again...
I also finished my first block for Lynette Anderson's My Garden. I'm stitching along withSimone on this BOM. There was a quite a bit more stitching then at first appeared but I really enjoyed making it - I like the Courthouse Steps arrangement too.
Finally, while we were trying to stay up very, very late on Friday - or rather, early into Saturday morning so that we could go and collect Catherine from her trip away (they went to France for a day) I managed to stitch these gorgeous Tulips from a design by Dany and on Saturday evening I turned it into a little pincushion - I love the colours of this design.
Not sure what I'll be stitching this week, it's quite a busy week as it's the last week of term for both schools in fact, Matthew's last week at Primary School. I'm a little behind with my flower garden stitching - I didn't manage to make one last week, hopefully I can fit some stitching in between now and Wednesday this week :)
Lovely stitcheries, Tee! And what a darling little pincushion.
I'm so happy I am doing My Garden together with you. I find that much more fun!

Lovely stitching - haven't you been busy. Glad to see I'm not the only one doing Christmas crafting in the heat of the summer LOL

Lots of beautiful stitching there. I don't know which I like best :)
Noel and Joy are gorgeous but I love the colours on the wheelbarrow and that is beautiful.
The pincushion is just cute!
