A few more for May

Three more dishcloths for the kitchen 

18 more washcloths for the bathroom.

I think that makes the total dish/washcloths for the year to 171!

It also means that the tub of cotton yarn is empty. About 4 1/4kg or 10.5 pounds of yarn used .

Lots of finishes

I sent off another quilt for Aussie Hero Quilts

I

I finished 10 dish cloths for the kitchen.

It doesn't look like a very big pile but there are 140 washcloths there.

They will be going to Ethiopia next month.

It has been lovely to get some big projects off the list.

Wipocalypse May

I have a little stitching finish, from the EMS flower of the month SAL.

I am making cushions, with 4 designs to each cushion.

 

I found this forgotten canvas project in the cupboard. 

I have made progress in just one session. 

April finishes

I finished two quilts this month.

A bargello quilt above and an uneven log cabin below.

Wipocalypse April

I was away last month, but that did enable me to get a little stitching done

 My angel has made good progress and I am enjoying stitching her.

This is a new start, DH gave me this kit for my birthday.

I have made a start and it is lovely to stitch.

My tablecloth continues to grow.

I have worked 3/4 of the hearts around the centre panel and also continued work on filling in the honeycomb centre.

The question for this month about stitches

I am not a fan of loads of backstitch and usually avoid designs that require lots.

Happy stitching until next month.

Wipocalypse February update

I have a new project  to add to the SAL.

Is is the angel of spring, a lavender  and  lace  design. 

I have not made any progress on my  cushion but I have on  my tablecloth, it just doesn't  really  show on a photo. 

To this month's question 

How do you overcome  that  feeling that  you're  in a  rut with a  particular  project. 

Like many others I put the project aside, but try to work out the reason for the rut, to see if there is a work around the problem.

Happy stitching  until next month

First Finishes for 2015

These rugs and cushion covers are for the Hamlin store which raises money for the Hamlin Fistula hospital in Ethiopia.

There was one extra rug I forgot to photograph but I hope to included a picture soon.
