A Birthday Present

One of our friends had her birthday a couple of weeks ago.  She didn't tell us until a couple of days beforehand though!  So, since I'd already stitched up this quaker sampler, I made it into a pillow for her.  I'm glad to say she loves it.  Unfortunately, though, she and her husband will be leaving next week.

Starting the Fun

I got to start the fun stuff this week.  Yay!  It's good to be able to actually not be making lines and lines.

Planting and Walling

A bit more done on this; at least one more column.  I also got a bit of the upper story's stonework done and even a bit of roof.

More Buildings and Flowers

Three quarters of the flowers on part four are done and I'm working on the fourth quarter.  I also got some more building work done.  The first part of part five is coming along nicely.

Mystery Done

I finished my Debbie Draper Quaker Mystery Sampler.  Now to make it into something.  I believe I'm going to do another journal cover.

Still on the Bottom

I am almost done with the first half of the bottom strip.  So close to being completely finished!

Other Gift Biscornu Part

Here's the other biscornu I made for the gift quilt.  It's an adaptation of a needlepoint design called "Captured Hearts".  I think it came out pretty well.
