****Seeing Red !!! ***

No.....I'm not mad.....I am just wanting to tell you that I am loving this new blog I have found...It is so french inspired and has several freebies you can access..........Here is the one I started last night and finished tonight............. It can be found HERE and really is a quick little stitch!!


36 ct creme linen
Dark Red Splendor silk
Here is a not so wonderful closeup of the teenie tiny date I slipped into the border...Don't blink, or you will miss seeing the 2010..............


Hmmmmmm.....Now how will I finish this???????? I will put it in the pile with the others and see what inspiring thoughts come to mind!!!
Have a terrific Tuesday everyone!!! ((**Hugs**)) Faye

Another beautiful piece .... I don't know how you finish them so quickly. I often don't start to stitch until late at night after my boys are in bed. I just get going and it's time for me to go to bed. I've stayed up too late more than once and paid the price the next morning. I just ordered an ornament pattern from Brenda Gervais .... hoping I can actually finish 5 of these before Christmas. Wishing I could stitch as quickly as you :o) Have a great evening!

Just absolutely love it Faye! Well done!

Carol said...

This is one of my favorites, too, Faye--I stitched it back on my Oct. 24th post, but left off the bottom border because it was getting too big for a tree ornament. Love the red and white--it is so fresh and "Christmasy" looking :)

This reminds me so much of the work you would see on a knit sweater... if you need something for a male, I think this would be perfect! You're such a speedy stitcher! Loved your pillow finishes below, too! Happy stitchin'!

Such a sweet little red sampler! I already have this chart ready to stitch and I hope I get time before the holiday is upon us. I have 3 more ornaments to go before I can stitch for me! Love the tiny 2010 - did you hide your initials too?
