My New Start

I know, I know, I promised all of you a picture of my new start for yesterday and well I never blogged. I was tired, I had driven home in a bad snow storm, cranky and headachy. Thus no blog entry.


So as promised, here it is my new start and a gift for a friend of mine : Macdonald Maple leaf by Lynne Nicoletti. I'm stitching it on 28ct white evenweave using DMC, I am quite enjoying it so far.

    Hey, I'd be more than a little tired and cranky if I had to drive in a snow storm.

  16. You are going to love stitching that piece ! It's one of the only designs I've ever wanted to stitch more than once, and that's the one that got me hooked on her "hidden image" designs. I finally got mine framed a few months ago, and it is just gorgeous. Can't wait to see yours "evolve" too :D

  27. Hi Dani,

    Hmmm...this looks interesting.
    That's a beautiful shade of red.
    Wonder what all that swirl of
    colour is becoming?

    I'm so glad to hear that you
    have made such great progress
    with the treatments for your
    foot injury and may not require
    any further injections. I'm
    keeping my fingers crossed for
    you.

    I wonder which TW design you'll
    be stitching for your friends
    baby. Those designs scare me
    silly, all those colour changes
    and so on, but I love watching
    you stitch them. You make them
    look so easy.

    Sounds like you had another
    wonderful stitcher's gathering
    at Ann's back on January 17th.
    Thankfully the weather didn't
    interfere too much with the
    gathering. You must be pretty
    use to driving in such wintery
    weather though.

    And you've got a week in FLorida
    to look forward to in March. So
    when the snow flies and the
    temperature plunges (again) back
    down to -56 or whatever you can
    just count down the days left
    until you fly down there. Um...
    any room in your luggage for a
    stowaway???

    Cheers!
