Hello everyone! I'm checking in at ChrisKnits with my to-do list. It's a great place to see what others are doing and to keep yourself accountable.
Last week: March 2 thru March 8
1. Decide on OMG and write a post. Double check that it posted. ✅
See my post here!
2. Sew more green RSC21 blocks
And a green Geese Migration block.
3. Put out the few March/ St. Patrick’s Day decor ✅
This is a Patchabilities banner made lots of years ago.This was a monthly banner of the month from Kathy Schmitz several years ago. It’s my least favorite. Because I screwed up! I almost always do a back stitch when I do regular embroidery. The instructions called for a stem stitch, which I started on the house and 2 small trees! Oops, the next time I picked it up I reverted to my favorite backstitch without thinking. By the time I realize my mistake, the blowing cloud was all done and I did not want to take it out. That always seems to end up wasting thread, I was worried about having enough for the whole year! So I left it! You can really tell the difference.
4.Keep sewing strips of green ✅




I love those green blocks!
ReplyDeleteThat St. Patricks day banner is really beautiful. If I look closely can see what you mean on the other one, but to me it's not that obvious. It still looks great.
I love your blocks! I think the different stitch on your wall hanging looks intentional. I think it makes it! The St. Paddy's banner is great! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI'm doing Geese Migration blocks for RSC too! I had decided not to do any green blocks this year, because I never finished the colors for last year. And it seems like we had SO much green last year - lights and darks. But I love your greens so much it is tempting. How do you find home for your cross stitch patterns? When we packed to move last summer, I took some to Goodwill and just prayed someone would adopt them. ;)
ReplyDeleteWonderful progress! I did the free angels they put out each year, one for each daughter's birth year. They were much smaller than the bride chart I did from them. Just love their patterns, but oy, my eyes can't do that anymore.
ReplyDeleteI usually like any St Pats stuff but your shamrock banner is really cute--love it! And love all the green!
