Circle Close Ups

As promised, here are some close ups of these amazing circle samplers!!

 

Toned Down Circle Sampler

Five of the nine ladies who started the Toned Down Circle Sampler class in August made it to the very end, most finished their circles and one even finished her whole project! Congrats to all!! 👏😊

Barb's (above) - she may frame or make a wall hanging.

Nancy (below) finished her book pillow!

Sherida (above) has a few to go and is making hers into an oval shape!

Lori (below) finished these 90 circles and started  more - this time 1 1/4 inch circles.  I have some close ups of some of her bigger ones I'll post later.

Cindy finished all 90 circles. I'm not sure if she's framing or making a wall hanging.  

I will share some close up pictures soon!

 

Toned Down Book Pillow

Leaf the Week Behind

Rain or Shine!

 A shout out to my walking buddies for another year and many more miles!  We're coming up on 34 years.  We walk about 2 1/2 miles a day, typically 5 days a week! We're a little pickier about the rain or shine part now though 😂. Love these girls!  Thanks for the many hours of "therapy" 🥰

Not pictured, I have another walking buddy that I walk three miles with, two days a week!  I love our walks and talks together too ❤️  I am so thankful for wonderful friends!!

Leaf #52

Here it is!  Leaf #52 of the Leaf the Week Behind Challenge with West Coast Wool!

Mine is the one above and I followed her instructions pretty closely.  My friend Rena's is below and she did some creative stuff with hers 😊. Now to figure out how to finish it!!

 

Toned Down Circle Sampler

Two more classes to go!  The ladies who've stuck with this class are doing an amazing job! I didn't get pictures of Sherida's or Nancy's this time but I will next time.  These belong to Barb, Cindy and Lori 😊

 

Oh Christmas Tree!

Needle Keepers' Christmas Party

Today was my stitch group's annual Christmas party! A good time was had by all!  The goal was to give a handmade gift for the gift exchange.  The only thing handmade about mine this year was a small wool ornament that I stitched. All the gifts were wonderful though and we had such a good time.  These women are all amazing friends and creative inspirations!!  🥰

Japanese rice bag made by Nancy.

Bowl made by Becky (and handmade cards too!)
