This is the last section -
I worked on that little blue house this week and it required some re-stitching as construction was underway. I ended up changing the color of the house to Gentle Arts Dungarees which didn't have enough contrast with the Tin Bucket I has used for the roof, so then I had to tear it off and re-roofed with Aged Pewter. It is just like real construction - one step forward and two steps back. I told myself I would finish this one before the end of the year and it is doable if I just keep at it. I have been tempted to start several new pieces and so far I've resisted but I'm not sure how much longer I can hold out -- so many cute pieces I can't wait to stitch!
Hope you are having a slow Sunday -
happy stitching!

After this past year, you certainly understand construction delays! This stitch piece is really going to be spectacular! Do you have an empty wall where this is going?
ReplyDeleteFantastic!
ReplyDeleteWonderful stitching!
ReplyDeleteI'm always so impressed with all this lovely stitching.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful ~ and so close to being a finish!!
ReplyDeleteOH you are definitely on the home stretch now!
ReplyDeleteI have no doubt that you can finish this by the end of the year! It's a beautiful project, one I am working on too (I'm on November). I just found your blog today on someone's sidebar. I knit, quilt and stitch too!
ReplyDeleteYou need to finish it. It's beautiful.
ReplyDeleteYour stitchery is looking lovely! So much work but well worth it!
ReplyDeleteI love it! Would you like to stitch a second one for Me???
ReplyDeleteYou are SO close Carol. I like your housing modifications too. I meant to comment earlier on how much I enjoyed your tour of your Craft Room. Everything is well organized, the storage shelves with your fabrics are so pretty, and you have plenty of room to leave out a large work in progress if needed. Oh, and your chicken decorations a the perfect touch!
ReplyDeleteYou have been so busy with house construction!
ReplyDeleteLooks terrific! Thanks for linking up to Slow Sunday Stitching!
You are getting so close! It looks fabulous!
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful Carol. Steady as she goes, the light is becoming much brighter. Jane
