Here is a very early-on picture of my progress thus far on Hillside Sampling's Strawberry Fields Stitching Bag. I have only stitched a bit of the backstitching. It is fairly quick going, but I am going to need a nice little chunk of time to get more finished. Is anyone else participating in this SAL over on the Legacy Board? I love these little accessories. Strawberries are another of those motifs that I like (almost as much as bee skeps!). Last Christmas I even stitched a couple of Prairie Schooler strawberries for friends. I would like to make some for myself as well eventually.
There is not much going on with me at the moment. I hope to maybe get in a few little stitches on my Quaker. I would love to do the finishing on it this weekend! I have once again changed my mind on what I am stitching for my Birthday Buddy (another group I belong to). I had something picked out, but then changed my mind, then went back to the original idea. But I have been dragging my feet on starting--mostly as I am uncertain on the finishing aspect. I had a bit of an epiphany looking at a designer website today, though. It is one of my favorite designers, and the recipient also listed them in her list of "likes". I feel much more comfortable with this choice. I know I can do the finishing and it will be fun to pick out some goodies to go along with the theme. I wish I could tell you more, but of course this is all a surprise!! Now I just have to wait for the chart to come...(and no more changing my mind!!!).
