February 2015 IHSW Finish!

I'm late in posting the finish of my Wintry Mix, finished just a few days after the IHSW, but here it is.  This piece is among my favorites.  The colors are just amazing.  You can't see the beads in the picture, but on the actual piece, they add a bit of sparkle.

Now, I'm working on another Valerie Pfeiffer design, "Berry Time" to add to my floofy birdies collection.

February 2015 IHSW 2

Between having a bad cold, and having to shovel out of a snowstorm, I did less stitching than I hoped over the weekend.  However, I did stay home from work yesterday, so I guess I did some catching up.  Anyway, here's the progress I made on Wintry Mix.

I absolutely LOVE the colors in this!

February 2015 IHSW 1

Hi Bloggers!

It is time for another International Hermit and Stitch Weekend, and I'm ready.  I have a few WIPs, but decided to see about doing what I call a "weekender", starting and finishing all in a few days. 

I've been on a bit of a Just Nan kick lately, so I'm going to add to my collection by stitching her design, Wintry Mix.  I've already done the companion piece, Jasmine Mix several years ago, and am really looking forward to doing this one.

So, here's my empty linen, ready to go!
