Happy Spring!

Lots of Spring stitching going on in this house, but only one that I can show you, the others are for some Spring Exchanges that I'll share once they arrive at their new homes. I finished Peep a couple of weekends ago ... what a fun stitch! I can't wait to finish him. Lizzie Kate's Peep stitched with supplies in kit This sweet pin cushion arrived over the weekend from Diane . Isn't it clever and cute! I might have to steal this idea ... hope you don't mind Juan :) I started Yule Sampler in December but had put it down to stitch on other things. When Lisa of Primitive Needle lost her life on March 1st I decided I would finish it in honor of her. There's a Facebook group that was created so we could share our stitching in memory of Lisa. Most everyone was stitching a Halloween piece since that was one of Lisa's favorite holiday was Halloween. Now to get it framed.

Last week Paulette ( Plum Street Samplers ) offered up this sweet freebie for St. Patrick's Day. I had fun stitching and finishing this pillow. I even added a green heart button on the bottom of the pillow and a shamrock and beads as a little extra bling. got luck? stitched on coffee dyed 28 ct. fabric stitched with Crescent Colours Khaki Mocha Erin Go Emerald and Four-Leaf Clover Terry helped pick out the backing fabric and and the cording. I think he did a great job *smile* Are you wearing your green today? My Dad, Chris and Monica are joining us for dinner. We're having corned beef, yukon potatoes oven roasted with thyme, garlic and olive oil, corn, hearty bread and of course some Guinness. Hope you have a great day! I hope you find your Joy in your stitches ... I'm grateful for little finishes ...
