Last Tuesday struck me down with the dreaded lurgy so with a lovely wheeze and hardly any voice at all, please come closer so I can whisper, try and shout out to you . . . .
HAPPY DANCE!
LHN 'Winter Band Sampler'
Weeks Dye Works 30~count Parchment Linen
DMC threads
Red Cardinals and Snowflakes
Not sure if I should have left a light on in one of these windows, after all there are 2 little bunnies sitting at the bottom needing the odd carrot or two!
I loved stitching this one :) although there are only 8 colours to the design, I think it pops when it's finished especially the white snowflakes! I do have an idea of a finish which actually ~ hold your breath ~ may not be a pillow!!!
Sleep is minimal at the moment as that seems to be the time when the continual coughing takes hold, so I have made use of my extra hours and started my next project and I really dug down deep in the stash box for this one . . .
This gorgeous design uses 39 different colours for the 'patches'. I love the fact that I can pick and choose which patch I fancy stitching next and so I'm hoping that with it being quite a large design this random method will stop me getting bored with it . . . hmm, famous last words!!!
Thanks for stopping by
HAPPY STITCHING

Hope you feel better soon Jane, it's no fun being sick! Lovely finish. Christmas patches is just gorgeous - I've been doing a piece with 'patchwork' on it lately too and I found that the patches did stop me from getting bored!
Lovely finish and look forward to more of your pretty patches.
Hope you feel better soon Jane, hugs.
Get Well Soon!
I love your Winter Band Sampler, the snowflake O is so clever!
I saw a photo of an actual cardinal on someone's blog recently. I can't believe how RED they are in real life. We don't have them in the UK at all so I never knew!
I'd be happy dancing too - your piece is just so pretty. And I love your next piece - I have had that one in my stash for forever, and it will be fun watching you stitch it. I hope that you're feeling better.
I had never in my life heard of the "dreaded lurgy"--had to look that one up!! Guess it is the flu, Jane? I'm so sorry it hit you--hope you feel better very soon :)
Your finish is one gorgeous piece--congratulations :)
Lovely finish. The red in the design really does pop. Christmas Patches seems like a fun stitch. Look forward to seeing more.
Hugs,
Veronica.

It's amazing that you had a finish despite your illness. I never feel like stitching or anything else for that matter when I'm ill.
Your Winter Band Sampler is just lovely!
The new start is so bright and colourful.It looks like a fun stitch!
Congratulations! Lovely, lovely finish. I hope you feel better soon.
