I LOVE prim designs and this one by Pineberry Lane is no exception.... I had some fabric called "Days Gone By" and thought it had the perfect look!

And, here is my progress on "Hare's Christmas" by Plum Street Samplers...I love the GAST shades of Baby Spinach and Cornhusk together.....I guess I am about 1/3 into this piece....

And, here is a funny looking picture of the block of Shores of Hawk Run Hollow I am currently working on.......

And a look at the whole piece so far......Not quite half done on this one..........Gotta get back to this one....Thank you Edgar for inspiring me to pull it back out~
And, I did have a finish this week....I had across this pattern by The Gentle Art called BerryThief..Although it is one I had done many years ago for a friend, I decided it needed to be done once more~~Since it has a bird in it, I KNEW I had to do it..........Besides, some of my favorite GAST threads are in this one.... Dried Thyme, Black Crow, Cherry Bark, Tarnished Gold and Autumn Leaves.........I forgot to take a snap of the prim buttons I used on the back to attach the ties.....

You have lovely WIPs! No stitching police here at all....whatever you stitch is going to be gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteYour WIP's are looking great! I've never seen the piece by Pineberry Lane. I just love the way it looks! Congrats on the finish too.
ReplyDeleteFaye, I have been admiring all of your fall goodies on your blog over the last few days!!! I LOVE that fall tree!!!!!! I need one of those; guess I had better stitch lightning fast huh??? It's so pretty. Love the WIP's, keep going on them......they are looking great!
ReplyDeleteWhat great WIP's! I stitched the Pineberry Lane one for last Christmas and never finish-finished it. Seeing you working on it reminds me how much I liked it so maybe this will make me actually get busy on it!
ReplyDeleteHey there Faye,
ReplyDeleteI think some of us use this approach to getting our needlework pieces done (posting WIPs on our blogs). I find it to be a useful tool.
And as always your pieces are beautiful.
Hugs.
Jackie.
Everything looks wonderful! I love the Merry Christmas piece.
ReplyDeletevery good works
ReplyDeletePat

ReplyDeleteLove your progress thus far! Isn't it funny, I have noticed when blogging, I see my progress in a totally different way than before I started blogging...and it is inspiring!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous WIPs. Can't wait to see them finished.
ReplyDeleteBerry Thief is very cute!
Great stitching and finishing, too! Wish those 90s would go away with summer! Four weeks -- yeah!!
ReplyDeleteI heard a bird chirping outside my window just when I saw your Berry Thief - it seemed so appropriate - love the design! It's fun to see all that you have going on.
ReplyDeleteBerry Thief is adorable! Great finish, especially for this time of year. :) Love your other WIPs, too. Isn't Days Gone By such a fun fabric? I love it. Love your Shores, too!
ReplyDeleteGreat WIPs, Faye!! Esp. love that Pineberry Lane one!! I love the primitive looking Christmas things - excuse me while I go check out that designer. :)
ReplyDeleteShores is beautiful, too! It's one of my "before I die, I must stitch this" patterns.
Have a great weekend!!
