Question Fot Queen Carolyn

What material do you use on the back of the paper/bead ornaments? I'm making a paper ornament and want to back it with something. Trudy

FINISHED PROJECT

Finished this TT last night at 12:15 am .... Dutch Treat Designs "Diamonds & Swirls". These are very relaxing projects to me & always have one working in my stash.

Medieval Herb Garden Chatelaine Piece progress

I have been cross stitching like crazy on this piece. Once I finish with the cross stiches then on to the Rhodes Stitches. All of the blocks in the arches are rhodes stitches. Her basket on her head will be a woven stitch.

Arabia Continued

WOW

Judy, that is absolutely gorgeous.  What a challenge.  Thanks for posting it.

BLACKBIRD SAMPLER

This is my current project from Blackbird Designs "Anniversaries of the Heart" - I am on part#6 - there will be 12 total. Loving this & it's hard to put down.

Christmas Ornament Exchange

I am so excited! I have chosen something from my stash to stitch for the ornament exchange!
Now all I have to do is get it done! Who else is stitching their ornament? Are you going to be one of those who misses out because you just didn't get around to it?

Arabia again

My friend Lucy is here visiting from Iowa  and we are doing lots of talking, so I am stitching while I talk.

Sections B, C and D are done.  Watch here for E.

Sunday stitching

I'm going to work on my ornament for the Christmas party...what will you be stitching today? Trudy

Back on the blog

Sampler

Trecia - welcome to the blog and glad to see you posted.

No, there is no border around the center - just the borders around each square.

Question about mystery sampler

Hi ladies! Is there a border around the middle section??? I didn't see any directions for one. Just thought I would ask. Thanks

Let's get Blogging

David S gave ToT Members a quick tutorial on how to access and use the blog. We certainly hope to see more postings and pictures of fabulous projects from everyone.

If you were not here, we missed YOU!

Oops

I said I wasn't a techie.

Arabia 3

.


I have now completed section 3 of Arabia.  The stitches are fun.  There is a lot of compensation, but it is fully diagrammed so that helps.  I will post more when all of Section A is complete. 

Hopefully after yesterday's meeting, more of you will be encouraged to start posting pictures of your work.  Pictures are what make our blog really interesting.  If you haven't learned how to manipulate pictures, start trying.l  It only took me about a year to figure it out, but I never claimed to be a techie.

Blog Update

We have now removed all references to member's addresses or e-mails.  Also, all comments will now be check to make sure there is nothing unpleasant in them.  This does not mean you can't express your opinion, but that opinion can't be libelous or obscene.

Hello to all. Mom passed away at 1:30 am Monday. We are all doing well as she was 91 and so wanted to go to heaven. Her name is Katharina Louisa Sheldon. We are having a memorial service at 7 PM on Wednesday, October 13 at Trinity Funeral home. (Paper misprinted it today). I will miss stitching with her everyday. See you all at the meeting Saturday, both girls will be there again and Brownsville girls Susan has Pampered Chef for you. Lenore

Arabia next installment

Pictured above is the next installment of Arabia.  I said I was going to post as I went.  Sections 3 and 4 are done.  You can also tell that I'm not a photographer.

Bargello Cat

Pictured above is the bargello cat that is being considered for a future workshop.  What do you think about it?  This one was worked by Martha Schwartz.

Martha Schwartz's latest

Pictured is Martha Schwartz's piece entitled Strawberry Shortcake.  Sorry for the reflections but you get the idea.
