It's been a while since I've shared my Band Sampler, and as you can see I've completed a few more rows. I'm a bit stuck on the eyelets--if I could stitch just one a day I could finish that row in no time. Easier said than done it seems. Now I'm working on yet another alphabet that is made up of four sided stitches. I'm not entirely sure I'm doing them right, but they seem to look okay in any case. Once I finish this row and the next the rest of the sampler is much more interesting!
I've got five days off from work over the holiday, so I am hoping to stitch--not sure what I'll work on, but this seems to be what I am grabbing most lately. I'd love to finish the letters. The next row is a nice, simple satin stitch!
If you are celebrating Thanksgiving, have a safe and happy holiday. If you aren't, have a great rest of the week.
Happy stitching everyone!
You now know your ABC's! Have a lovely Thanksgiving, Danielle!

Melissa--If I didn't before, I surely do now! ;) Have a great holiday, too!
Kristen--Thanks--I am very pleased with it so far, well--except those darned eyelets! Yay for long weekends--I hope to finish that alphabet! Happy Thanksgiving as well!

Karoline--Thank you. I wish I had managed more of the alphabet over the weekend, but I'll get there!
