Scissors

 I like this piece. Why don't I finish it? Maybe it is the yellow fabric that I don't care for...

But it would be so cute as a small!

I'm So Stupid!

 I did not like the variegation on the this fabric with the over-dyed thread. So I pulled a solid DMC out and started stitching. ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THE FABRIC! 

I really like the brighter side of the fabric so I will be ripping tonight!  I need to get a WIPocalpse post up this weekend. And my garden is calling me....

A Little Start

 

But I will be ripping this out. I dyed this fabric; I think it is Monaco. I also dyed the floss, but I don't like how it looks. I think I will start again with a solid thread-dark grey, perhaps?

Something to Add to my Art Quilt

I decided (with the help of friends!) that my quilt needed another layer under the doilies. I am making strips of fabric that I will slow stitch onto the piece. I also wanted to add cross stitch or needlepoint pieces to the piece too.
Here is something I hope to add:

I keep my stork scissors in my Gay Ann Rogers Townhouse Needle case. I may add more stitched scissors to the piece, but we will see. I am stitching on a cocktail napkin that I hand dyed and am using DMC 08.
