Greetings fellow stitchers~~ I have been away from the computer longer than anticipated...But, I have a very good excuse! First, may I say thank you, thank you for all the lovely comments about my recent sampler finish "Sarah Elizabeth Brooke 1842".. I am humbled and soon I hope to have it framed for display here at the carolinastitcher home....
I have been sewing as much as I can, diligently mailing out project pouches to those of you who contacted me...Today, I managed to finish out all the orders but one...I am still pondering the fabric to use for this dear lady.... But, I was able to sew up a few extras...
These are the smaller pouches good for your scissors, needles and the like.......
These are up for grabs, so email me if you are interested...
approximate size is 5 x 7 inches....
***Edited, These are all spoken for now...Thanks!~***
I have fun picking out a co-ordinated linings..here are a couple peeks..
I also sewed up a project pouches set....I thought this would be perfect Valentine gift to YOURSELF~~
I was able to finish my February CCN Cottage....All I need to do is pop it into the frame...
This is turning into a fun 2012 series....
40 ct light Exampler linen
Gloriana and npi silks
Finally, I was excited about stash diving and locating my copy of Sarah Munday Sampler by Threads of Gold..
After I saw Paulette's blogpost when she was at the Attic, I remembered I had kitted this one up long long ago....I knew it just had to be my next biggie project....
Well, I need to get settled for the night....Downton Abbey will be coming on soon...With this head cold I am nursing, I will be watching the DVR'd episode tomorrow night!!
Hope everyone has a fantastic week....
brrrr.....Stay warm!!
Faye

Sorry about your cold, seems like lots of folks are getting it. Your pouches are terrific. One class, and you are a pro - WOW!
That is a seriously BIG sampler you are going to be starting. Oh, and your February Cottage is very cute!
Love your pouches Faye! They are so adorable. That is a lovely chart you are going to stitch. Enjoy it! Those CCN cottages are a lot of fun right? I have the January one so far, but haven't started it yet. Too many other projects going on.
Feel Better!

Love all the coordinating fabrics on your sewing bags! Your LHN finish is very sweet and I will look forward to watching your progress on Sarah!
The pouches are darling! Great choices on the coordinating fabrics. I haven't even finished January yet so February is going to be put on hold. I plan on starting March next. Maybe I can get it finished before the month arrives. Won't make any bets though!
Hope you feel better soon! I caved and bought the Season 2 dvd @ Costco and watched the remaining episodes. LOVED IT!
Your pouches are just lovely. That looks like another huge piece you are going to stitch!
Sarah Munday is a great sampler... I'm looking forward to watching your progress. Congrats on your lovely cottage finish.
OMGosh, I'm in love with your pouches! They are lovely. And I can't wait to see your start on Sarah Munday. Maybe it will make me start on a sampler soon. I'm still in Christmas mode...2 months later. =)
I have this one, too! Did you ever go to Edna's house and see the original? Knock your socks off stunning! If anyone wants to find it, best chance is probably www.emlis.com. Edna's daughter should still have what's left of her TOG stock, I imagine.
Pouches look great!
Great projects pouches, the co-ordinating fabrics are perfect. Your cottage is gorgeous. Look forward to seeing your progress on your next large project.

Your pouches all look fab, Faye! I just received mine this weekend and they are beautiful. I posted a couple pics on my new post :) I love your new pick, Sarah Munday! Happy Valentine's!
I love the way you have chosen beautiful fabrics for the lining. When I shop for handbags the inside is as important as the outside to me.
What beautiful fabrics you have chosen for your pouches!
What a great sampler Sarah is! Have fun with your time with her!
I think you could go into business making those adorable pouches of yours, Faye!! Love the fabrics you've used and the little charms, too!
Enjoy stitching that lovely new sampler and have a very happy Valentine's Day today ♥♥♥

Tuck in and rest with a cup of chamomile tea (whilst stitching a just wee bit.)
Be well my friend...
Fondly,

Your project bags are absolutely fabulous!!! I love the one you made for me. It is so pretty. I plan to showcase it on my blog very soon. Love your projects. Sarah Munday is very pretty. I don't believe I have ever seen that one before.
Didn't you love the two hour episode of Downton this week? So much happened!! This has become my very favorite show on TV.
Grat job on the pouches. Hope you are feeling better soon.
