Tiny Needle Tuesday

 

It wasn't much of a week for stitching since it was so dark and gloomy. The rain has finally stopped but the sun in still is short supply. On Sunday I sat down and binge watched 3 seasons of a Netflix true crime show and finished the Matter's house. Now I get to move onto the fun parts of the pattern. 

I did three little boxes on the Patchwork Ete. The big box on top will hold a tractor and a wagon-some day. I'm not feeling it right now. It's a lot of stitches. 

I had a scare with the Village Quaker. When I unrolled it I realized that I had very little fabric left. I did the corner and then counted out the border and I can just squeak by with about an inch to spare. How I am going to stitch that close to the edge is another story. I won't be able to use a frame. 

And....Valerie, I am using your suggestion for the Cow Pile. I think a pale pink for the cows is a lot more fun than the white the pattern called for. I didn't get a chance to work on them yet but I'm already looking forward to it. I was dreading all that white.
