More Little Red Sampler

I find this project very addicting. I take it with me places and stitch on it when I am too tired to stitch on other things. I think it is 36 count. Love seeing it develop. I even have at least one spool to display one of them on.

TUSAL

TUSAL is Totally Useless Stitch A Long. All you need to do is take a photo of your orts and post it on your blog. What are orts? From https://www.dictionary.com/ Usually orts. a scrap or morsel of food left at a meal. We define it as the little bits left over from our stitching.


I am not sure if anyone is hosting this anymore, but I sure enjoy seeing everyone's little bits of thread and fabric...
Here is my jar of orts:
And here is what I believe is the last zinnia of the season:
Have a great weekend!

Red Sampler

I do like working on this. Wish I remembered what the fabric was...
I am stitching it twice as I feel like there is plenty of room on the fabric. I know I have some spools in the basement that I think will make a great display.

Trying to Get this Done!

I have been forcing myself to stitch on this piece as much as possible. I stitch a little in the morning and then again in the evening. I am making progress.
There is a lot of backstitching to be done in these sections, so I am planning on doing a strand of floss every time I sit and stitch.

A New Start

I finally caved and started a new project. It is a red sampler and all I want to stitch.
I am using fabric that the shop put in the kit for me and Silk4u PR 126. I love it!
