I am tee totally thrilled! Eeeeh!
Picture me spinning around in a circle with a big grin on my face.
I haven't stitched one of these in a spell, and I tell you it was an absolute delight. I even stitched up the borders for a 2nd one. If you are interested in this little stitch, let me know, and I will chart it up when I return home. 
As Always...
Happy Stitching and Quilting,
y'all

Christmas stitch is adorable. I'm crazy about your Tumbling, Tumbling Weeds quilt. Lovely, Miz Melisa. My goodness, you packed lots of lots of fun projects. I told you I've been spending lots of time x-stitching. Just small fun projects. Today I started an Easter project. I don't have all the called for floss colors so I'm making it my own. teehee! Keep stitching and enjoying exploring the desert, as well. Hugs, DarleneJ
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely Christmas ornament. I love your quilt also.

Good Morning - looks like you're trip is going great! Love your new chicken stitch - I'd love to see a chart for it - I'm thinking of taking all of the barnyard chicken patterns and putting them together for my dd who is raising chickens. Your quilt is so pretty - do you quilt it on your lap or is it on a stand? Blessings!
ReplyDeleteThose are some cute chickens! I like the design you added to your windmills in your tumbleweed quilt. I hope you and Mr. Pinker continue to enjoy your time away from the farm!--TerryK@OnGoingProjects

ReplyDeletePlease chart the Christmas ornament - I love those chickens sitting on the fence watching for Santa. I have stitched all the Farmyard Christmas series and all of Anne and the girls (chickens). This would be a wonderful addition to my tree. The quilt is coming along nicely and is beautiful. You accomplish so much - even on vacation. Have a great time and enjoy yourself. Alicia
It must be hard to stitch outside…I would be totally distracted by the views! Lovely quilting! Gail at the cozy quilter.
