Tiny Needle Tuesday

 

Woo hoo....Snort Stack is finished. Here it is surrounded by all it's critter cousins. I think I am at the end of this stitching jouney even though there are more critters in the series. Many more. I'm hoping to spend the long, hot summer turning these into little pillows as they are intended but I need to locate the tiny trim the pattern calls for first. The last time I looked it was out of stock.




The top right hand corner of The Garden of Joy is finished. Almost. I do need to put some doo dads on the outer border but I'm waiting for the whole thing to be finished before I do that. 





Look at this mess. I've got bobbin boxes but I've been lazy about doing any winding and sorting so this is what I get. I need a nice long rainy afternoon and a good movie and maybe a couple more bobbin boxes to be honest. 






And....I have to thank Lucy in Kentucky for sending me this year's Kentucky Derby pins and some stickers from Mammoth Cave. The Mister is always thrilled to get these as he takes them down to the mom and pop grocer and brags to his friends down there that he was actually there. They know he's kidding but it makes his day. Thanks Lucy!

  1. Bobbins are SO aggravating to wind. I've got to find a better way.

    I'm selfishly sorry that Short Stack is done. It's been fun watching your progress

  3. I love all the Critter Stacks! So cute! I'm itching to get my embroidered flowers done so I can start on a super cool halloween sampler (and maybe even have it done in time for October!)

  5. It seems like you finished Snort Stack quickly, and I didn't realize you had stitched so many other critters! They all look great, as does Garden of Joy. I wouldn't mind a rainy day here. I could use it to organize my yarn stash closet (but in reality, I would probably nap).

  6. I can't believe how many of the 'stacked' stitching you have completed!!! Fun to get a hug in the mail!
