Wow~~ I let the time really slip from me! Between school starting back, finishing lots and lots for others and doing a little stitching fr myself, turnaround and its mid September.... Yikes!!
I do have a couple finishes to share... Country Stitches had a winner of a kit released this month... I fell in love with the soft colors... Forget Me Not Sampler is prettier in person than any photo can convey~
Wouldn't you agree that is piece is the perfect combination of pale blues and antiqued tans...... All the cotton overdyes and 35 ct creme linen were included.... I coffee stained the linen accordingly the easy included directions. Now, I just have to decide how to finish this goodie... Keep ya posted!
Additionally, I finished stitching my larger project.... Scarlet Letters And All Was For an Appil.... The colors are so vibrant and will be sure to make my sampler wall pop!!
I have contacted Scarlet Letter for a small red sampler to stitch next.... It should hold me until I can decide on my next large SL design....
Lastly, how totally excited do you think I got when I got my hands on this gorgeous sampler???!!!
Paulette Stewart of Plum Street Samplers & Antiques has been at it again... I have all my supplies gathered except for one floss.... So, soon this will be a Fall start for me~~
October brings a couple retreats for me and I am SO excited! And, from the look at what you guys are working on, I'm seeing beautiful ornaments and gifts to finish up in the craft room... Keep them coming!!!
Here's hoping your week is fantastic!

I absolutely love your SL finish. I adore them from afar but haven't taken the plunge. You know you are enabling me with your great finish. :)
Have fun with the Crown Sampler.
Faye -- GORGEOUS finishes! I'm drooling over here.....
Can't wait to see progress on your new start -- I have this one kitted up too!
Take care and have fun at your retreats:))
I agree, those blues and tans are perfect together. Can't wait to see how you finish it. Well done on your SL finish! It is a beauty!
Love both of your finishes!!! I just got the WTN&T chart today,finally, and I will be starting it tomorrow. And your new PSS sampler will be another new start for me as soon as I get the colors figured out!! They are both just gorgeous!! Laura

Wonderful finishes Faye - as always. I can't believe how quickly you got through the WTN&T piece. I haven't even touched mine yet. But I did pull out AAWFAA and started working on it again after seeing your finish on the SL blog. You're becoming an enabler! :-)
When this you see...oh blues and browns my favorite color combo. And all for an appil - love the big old pussy cat hunkered down on the right.
They are just beautiful! Glad all is well with you.
Faye, gorgeous pieces as always! I was drooling over your AAWFAA on the SL blog on the weekend. Thanks as always for sharing. Have a great time at your retreats and happy stitching/finishing.
Such beautiful finishes! Wow! I'm looking forward to seeing your progress on the Crown Sampler too!
Congratulations on your finishes! They're beautiful and beautifully photographed! Enjoy your retreats - nothing like hanging out with like minded friends to the wee hours.

Congrats on the Appil finish! Beautiful. I love the Crown Sampler too but oh, so many wonderful things out there for stitching!

Both are gorgeous, Faye--that first one is especially appealing with the blue and tan combo!!

You will have the Crown Sampler done by the time you get to MB! You are one speedy stitcher! And you choose some very nice projects! I don't know how you do it all, and work too! Do you sleep?? Hugs!
Your AAWFAA finish is stunning Faye - Can't wait to see how you frame it. Yes I agree Paulette did have some great samplers for market - I added Yuletide Welcome to my stash pile and the Crowns might have to come too. Loved seeing all the finishes in your August post - you are so talented and creative. Hope you enjoy your upcoming retreats. Melody
