Stitching with friends

We had our Stitch and Bitch today at my house. Minnie, Sharliena, and I met for breakfast at Denny's then up to my house for a day of stitching. Minnie is working on a biscornu which you will probably see over on her blog All XXs when she finishes it. Sharliena worked on Minnie Mouse. Helen joined us around lunchtime. She's been stitching a little Lizzie Kate. I received the traveling pattern Life's A Stitch by Lizzie Kate from Daffycat on Thursday. I started it today and just finished. It is a very quick stitch. I used WDW 30 ct. Sky. Since it is blue and the letters a blue also, so I substituted a gold (DMC 728). I also didn't have the 3341 so I used some CC Lavender Louise.  I think it came out quite nicely.



So now it's ready to travel on. If you are interested in being the next recipient of this pattern, leave a comment here and I will draw the name on Wednesday 11/21.

Thanks for stopping by!

November TUSAL

Not much stitching done this past month. I've taken a few classes in knitting and now I'm cranking out some gifts for Christmas. Nothing I can show right now because some of the recipients read this blog.

So here is my scant offering. Just a few strands of orange colors added to the top. That's it. So sad.
