Magical Quilts Blog joins my Freebie List!

 

I have added the blog Magical Quilts to the free links on the left hand side of the blog.  I stumbled on to it from Pinterest.  It hasn't been updated May of 2021 due to health issues of the author but there are lot of posts to explore.  There are Friday freebies which are creations of the author. There are also yearly stitch alongs which are fun.
 
The image below is an example of a year long SAL where each month an increment of the design is published.
I really enjoyed pawing around the blog.  There is so much to look at and explore.  I pray that this author's health returns so she will be able to share her delightful love of our shared passion again.

Stitching Blessings Friends.

Green finishes and a red start!

 I now have 3 Shamrock finishes from the 1998 Curtis Boehringer mini chart 3 For $2.  The first finish was "March". 

The second was Shamabet! 
The silk floss is white Silks For You and the fabric is 28-count hand dyed Cashel in the color "Lagoon".

The 3rd and last design in the mini leaflet is Shamwreath.
The fabric is called "Surf" from the now defunct "Dye Is Cast" is the company.  I used DMC Flower Thread in 2501 and 2503.  The flower thread is no longer available but I love stitching with it.  I started this on February 2nd and finished it on February 15th.

These 3 finishes have yet to be fully finished but I am delighted with them.  I have just started on the 2023 free design from Pineberry Lane, "V is for Valentine".  It is pictured below.
The chart can be found here: https://www.pineberrylane.com   I am stitching it on 28 count cashel linen in the color toasted almond.  I am using the Gentle Arts floss in "Schoolhouse Red".

Happy Stitching my lovelies!

Shamrock growing & Something Blue showing †

I have been stitching on Curtis Boehringer's 3 for $2 Shamrock Sampler. The fabric is a hand dyed 28 count cashel linen in the color Lagoon.  I don't know what company but I had purchased it years ago at Stitches 'n Things.  I am using white Silks 4 You silk floss.  The green dotted Swiss cotton fabric you see behind it is a lovely cotton quilting fabric that I purchased at 1-2-3 Stitch!  I am going to use it for one of my Irish designs I am stitching. I have stitched 2 of the lobes of the shamrock and I am working on the 3rd.  I love this and intend to stitch the 3rd design in this little leaflet also.


I did receive my fabric and floss for my intended start Rosewood Manor's Something Blue. The fabric is Picture This Plus 28 count cashel linen.  The color is called Alchemy.  It is so beautiful!  Also received is the 15 skeins of Weeks Dyed Works in the color Parchment.  Looking forward to starting that.

I hadn't been feeling well the past several days.  I believe this crazy back and forth weather is killing my sinuses.  I have been reading the Left Behind series again for the I don't know how many times now.  The events in the world are so dark and I need to focus on God more closely.  I also listen to the Bible in a Year podcasts from Father Mike Schmidt produced by Ascension. I love Father Mike and have learned SO much from him.  I need to keep God close in these troubling times, we all do.  So for this moment I will sign off with God Bless you my dear friends.

A Shamrock Sampler & Supplies For A Wanna Start

 



I started a new Curtis Boehringer St. Patrick's Day design from the small leaflet which also housed my March finish.  This design is the alphabet which are stitched into the shape of a shamrock.  I am stitching it on a 28-count hand dyed Cashel in the color "Lagoon".  I love the color which is a lovely "bluey" green with a bit of brown swirled in. It has been in my fabric stash for years. The floss I chose is Silks 4 You in white.  Haven't got much done but will be stitching thru the Bills/Bengals game.  I want to see who my beloved CHIEFS will play.
So, I pulled out this gorgeous Rosewood Manor design called "Something Blue" which was in my Lifetime Stitching Box.  It has been on my stitching mind for a few months.  Well, I broke down and ordered the Picture This Plus "Alchemy" fabric in 28 count Cashel. 123 Stitch did not have it in Lugana.  I also ordered the 15 skeins of Weeks Dyed Works "Parchment" cotton floss that it calls for.  The photo on the leaflet is gorgeous and we all know that these photos never do the actual piece justice, so I am stoked.  Oh, I used Christmas money I received to pay for it. 

Tomorrow, I plan on washing up and pressing the March design I just finished.  I like to do those kind of things when hubby is at work.  Have lovely stitching moments this week my stitching friends.

♣ A wee Irish finish!

I finished a little design that was in my Lifetime Stitching Box.  It is an old Curtis Boehringer design from 1998.  You got 3 small designs for $2.00. I want to stitch all 3.  This is called "March" and it is 50x50.  It is stitched on 28count white cashel linen that was in my fabby stash.  I used an Olde Willow Stitchery floss in Frankenstein and a DMC Flower Thread in 2907.  I started it January 15, 2023 and finished it at noon today, January 21, 2023.

I would like to finish it into a small cushion using the fabric you see behind in a green/tan check cotton for the back.  

Snowflower Lace seems to be sitting in the background as I am scratching my Irish itch.

My Lifetime Stitch Box

I have so much stash after 37 years of stitching and stashing.  As much pleasure as it has brought me it is paralyzing and ridiculous. How in the heckydoodle can I have nothing to stitch?  Or worse how can I not decide what to stitch with thousands and thousands of dollars in stash?  

I have gone thru what I have upstairs in my happy room and pulled out things that I definitely want to stitch. I have put them in a shoe box.  I have enough in this shoe box to last me a lifetime of stitching.  The rest is going down in the basement.
There are no rules for what can and cannot be put in the box.  I have kits, free designs, magazines and of course charts in the box.  I can take out or add anything I want.  I laughed because as I was sorting it all out to take these pictures, I was wondering why I put several designs in there.  It's madness, it's insanity, it's ridiculousness.  I think of all the money I have spent and I shudder.
I just want to stitch like I did when I first started.  I stayed up way past my bedtime working on a project.  I would go to work dragging because I stayed up thinking "just one more stitch".  I was so passionate about stitching.  I still am however it is more in my head then actually doing it.
Perhaps that is the key. As long as I am thinking about stitching, I really am enjoying thinking about it. I suppose I am looking for the end all answer and I am not sure there is one.  Happy stitching my dears!

My very own bead bed

For Christmas I received a gift from my sister that was a presented in this nice wooden box.  My sister paints and some of her paints had occupied this box at one time.  Loved the gift and loved the box.  

I hit upon the idea of making THE ideal bead bed.  I cut out a piece of card stock the size of the inside of the box.  I used double stick tape around the edges and cut a piece of black velvet and secured it with the tape on the back side.  I pushed it into the inside of the box and it fit perfectly. I hot glued a quilter's clip to the inside lid and a needle minder sissy had given me.  

I can put a note with which design the beads belong to, as this one is Snowflower Lace.  On the needle minder I have several beading needles for quick retrieval.  The results are perfection.  The beads are easier to pick up on the velvet and I have everything at my beading pleasure finger tips.  

How I love my homemade tools! Happiness is indeed homemade.

Stash buyer's regret!

 

Have you ever bought a chart and when you got home and really looked at it in finer detail you discover you don't like it as much and you won't ever stitch it?

Lavender and Lace design "Michael" from 2010 is one such purchase.  I love Michael the Archangel, however I think Marilyn could definitely done a better job of designing him proportionally. His hands are too small, his head tilts at an awkward angle and his wings just don't look right.  I love the garment with the rich blue and the necklace, but I am disappointed to say the least.  It is quite rare to see males represented in cross stitch designs.  I truly wonder why this design seems not to be up to Marilyn Leavitt-Imblum's usual wonderful standards. I regret this purchase.

A Wee Bit 'O Stitchin'!

 

Band 2 of Snowflower Lace is complete.  The color is a bit washed out in this photo.  The top and bottom stitched rows in blue are the Chinese Stitch.  The center row is Interlaced Crosses (pinks) and Satin Stitch (green).  I was a bit confused at first with the Chinese Stitch but I caught on after a few of them.  

I did not work on this yesterday (January 3rd) as I did a lot of dishes and I baked some banana bread.  I want to make some Sugar Cookies today.  I made some lovely hamburger stroganoff and have lots of yummy leftovers of it.  I am going to take a mini banana bread to Mom this afternoon along with a bit of the stroganoff.  I think she will enjoy it. I am off for now. Happy New Year!

A New Year Begins!

 

It's a perfect quote from the Bible for the New Year 2023.  I have been working on, for several years, perfecting my mind to embrace only the good of people and the world.  I am not perfect at it yet, but I am improving.  This is a year that I want to stitch every single day, even if it is just one stitch.  I would like to update my blog on a daily basis, but alas I think that is hopeless.  But I will give it a go.

The above image is a 1996 class project from Just Nan called Snowflower Lace.  I have the kit.  I attended the class at the now defunct Just Needlin' shop.  It has been in my stash for the past 26 years.  I laugh heartily at that ludicrous amount of time.  I did start it maybe 2 weeks ago and have failed to work on it daily.  It is a stunning piece as you can see. Here is my progress to this moment.

I am stitching it on 28 count Lugana in the color "wheat" which is similar to DMC 3782.  It is darker then the mushroom lugana that I love. I chose it because it warms the pink and blue tones which I prefer.  The grey fabric called for is lovely but it is cooler.  

So far I am quite enjoying this piece although the Chinese Stitch gave me fits which is amusing as it isn't difficult at all.

My next post I will share with you what my basket of lifetime stitching is all about and what I am doing with the rest of my stash.  Stitch blessings until then.

Gloria progress

I am getting to a very exciting point in my stitching on the superb Patricia Andrle "Gloria".  I am about to finish stitching the next to last line.  The last line is a gold motif with the word "Deo" in gold.  That completes the inner design and then will be the bottom border.  See the image below. 

The above image is a photo of the magazine page and it does not touch the beauty of the actual piece.  I will finish stitching it and then gently wash and press it.  I have a piece of lightweight interfacing that I will press on.  This will keep the threads in back in place.  Once that is accomplished I will attach the gold beads with white floss and it will be ready to take to C.C.& Company to pick out the frame.  I am so cuffed with this project, the beauty of the blending filament and the opalescence of the fabric is beyond words. I can hardly stitch because my eye keeps wandering over it in admiration of the sparkle.  If I am diligent it could be as short as 2 weeks before done.  I am not holding my breath for diligence.

April is finished before it has begun!

I interrupted my stitching on Patricia Andrle's "Gloria" to stitch up a free design I am going to post about on my Facebook Needle Free For All group the first of April.  In 2015 a German blog had a stitch along and all of the months have a chart which can be found on the above link.  I really liked the small design (43x43 stitches) but not the color floss the blogger chose.  The photo above is my version and the smaller photo below is the blogger's version.  

I wanted to use floss colors that I felt represented April in my own opinion.  "April Showers" is what I envisioned blue greys and a pop of floral colors.  I chose 28 count Zweigart cashel linen in the color "ice blue" (similar to DMC 3841). "April" is stitched in the now defunct Six Strand Sweets "Berry Twist" (similar to DMC 598 & 33). The rest is stitched in Classic Colorworks "Deep Blue Sea" (similar to DMC 322/334).  I had originally stitched the motif above the "P" in the Berry Twist but decided I didn't like it so I ripped it out and stitched it in the Deep Blue Sea.  I fell in love with it at that point.  You can see how the Palko Lap blogger stitched hers in the small photo below.  I think my choices are much more appealing.

My intention is to stitch each month and then make hanging pillow ornaments, one month as the front and another as the back.  I want to bind them together with a beaded edge and then each will hang off of a peg on a mug tree on my dining room table.

I stitched on this project March 13 (started at 9:00am), 15, 18 & finished at 8:15pm on the 19th of 2022. This was a wonderful project and I enjoyed stitching it.  I am still pondering the colors of floss and fabric for the month of May.

☩ Mary's Sampler is finished! ☩

Plum Street Samplers free SAL from 2013, Mary's Sampler, was a casual stitch along on a Facebook group I am in.  Here is a link to the pattern and color key:

Mary's Sampler chart: https://plumstreetsamplers.com/2013/11/24/marys-sampler-finale/?fbclid=IwAR1CoppH_DPvl5zLFI33bdkgLSPJs-wolYKq4GgR55K7KJLhiRKTe33URhM

COLOR KEY: https://plumstreetsamplers.com/2013/09/29/marys-sampler-part-1/?fbclid=IwAR3VOqSQ42usepWxXL7kxyAsY2ekX9rch-SNzrZhGledezHdjT7C7ZZOe64

I started stitching it Tuesday, January 25, 2022 at 1220 p.m.  I completed it Monday, February 21, 2022 at 9:00 p.m.  That was a span of 28 days of which only 20 days I worked on it.

I used Hand Dyed by Stephanie 28 count Lugana in the color "Slate".  The floss I used was DMC 611, 642, 729 and 3371. I used Dye Is Cast Dried Herbs and Weeks Dyed Works Boisenberry for the berries in the border.  Crescent Colors, Sweetest Heart was used for the large flower in the design and Gentle Arts Sampler Threads in the colors Brandy, Shaker White, Wood Smoke, Adobe, Wood Trail and Heirloom Gold were also used.


I really like this design.  I think the fabric choice was perfect for it and showed off the floss colors beautifully.  I think the designer was so novel using quilted stars for the stars in the sky.  I wasn't too sure about her color choice for them but they are absolutely perfect. My favorite motifs are the Mary and Joseph and the shepherd. I found that I loved the Gast color Wood Smoke, it is just a dirty aged white that was wonderful. I don't know how or when I will finish this, but it might make a nice small pillow. I am glad I took time away from Gloria to work this.  I did have some separation anxiety to be truthful.

My substitutions and choice of floss colors and fabric were determined by what I had in my stash.  I have been very conservative in my stashing habit, trying to whittle it down to nothing. The biggest event that occurred as I was stitching this was cataract surgeries of my mother and a very bad snowstorm on February 2nd and again on the 17th which was also ice under the snow.

So this is the accurate and true story of my experience stitching this design.  God has blessed me.
