I ordered this Leafy Tree embroidery project from Mary Corbett's Needle 'n Thread website awhile back and I finally started it a few months ago and finally finished it today! I really wanted to finish it before starting Sue Spargo's new block of the month Trade Winds, which begins sometime this month. I'm also working on Amy McClellan's stitch book sampler, so I don't want to have too many hand projects going at the same time. I'm also glad I finished this because I wasn't really enjoying working on it. 😬. I've decided I like adding embroidery embellishment stitches to wool appliqué, but I don't really love embroidery, all by itself... I like working with Perle cotton threads more than I like working with embroidery floss too. So there you have it. I am glad it's finished and I will probably hang it up somewhere and after awhile I won't remember where all the mistakes are.... 😂
My husband took this picture of our Free Little Library on our snowy Friday. It was a great day for a book! I finished reading a Christmas book that I started and thoroughly enjoyed relaxing by the fire enjoying my book and a cup of hot cocoa. Just like a Hallmark movie! ❤️
I thought I'd better post this photo below before it's not true anymore! 😂
