Busy, busy, busy! I know many of you are hustling and bustling about the kitchen prepping for family gatherings or for just a quiet holiday meal at home, but I did want to pop in to wish you a lovely day.If you can spare a minute, I would love to show you my latest cross stitch finish which is simply called
Merry Christmas.
Let's get out of that hot kitchen and take a gander shall we.
I made it into a long skinny pin pillow . I bordered the stitch with a small scrap of homespun fabric which I left unfinished on one end so you could see the frayed edges.

I think I am happy with it. 🤗

Oooh I have potatoes boiling so I better get back to the kitchen and I know you have much to do as well. Hey, if you are in the neighborhood, drop in , grab an apron and spoon! We can tackle this Thanksgiving meal together and better yet, you can be the taste tester! Hee! Hee!
OK Back to the Kitchen, I go!
As Always...
Happy Stitching and Quilting,
y'all

ReplyDeleteDon't work so hard in your kitchen that you forget to enjoy yourself. Hopefully at the end of the day you'll have a few minutes to prop your feet up with your need and thread.
I love your Merry Christmas pillow so much. The 'finishing' is perfect.
Once again - Happy Thanksgiving but with lots of hugs. DarleneJ
