I'm sorry - there haven't been too many posts from me lately. Most of my stitching is for exchanges; you will get to see them eventually! It's been a busy week with the kids starting school and my mother needing some help towards the end of the week.
Here are some recent finishes! I'm getting more and more brave with how I finish my stitched pieces!
First, here's the most recent LHN pillow called Season of Growth. I think this is probably my favorite so far. The fourth design in this series is available now, but I haven't purchased it yet.
Second, this was a complimentary chart from Brittercup Designs. My daughter actually did the stitching, I just finished into a little pillow/ornie for her room. She changed the thread color from black to more of a chocolate color (we have a chocolate lab/chesapeake bay retriever mix).
Next, here's an ornament I stitched up a few weeks ago. This is a Homespun Elegance design from one of the JCS Ornament issues. (First time I've ever finished an ornament like this with cording!)
And last but not least, here's a LHN design I finished a few weeks ago called Blossoms and Blackbirds. I mounted it to some foam core board (similar to a pinkeep finish, just thicker). I'm not very good at making bows!
Well, must get back to the laundry and other household chores that are waiting for me!

All your finishes look great, Cathy :) Congratulations! I know what you mean about not being able to share...most of my stitching lately has been exchange related too.
Have a good weekend!
Hi Cathy, your finishes are all wonderful, just superb! I really like Season of Growth too, and have got Season of Plenty on its way which should arrive very soon from the US :) enjoy your weekend!
Cathy,
Your finishes are wonderful. I love your Blossoms & Blackbirds. I have that same little Santa stitched, I need to get it finished soon, your blog reminded me.
Happy Stitching!!
Beautiful finishes!!
They all look fantastic Cathy - congratulations on your finishing.
I think that your bow looks just fine! And wow to all of those beautiful finishes. Wonderful! Great job! :)
Wowzie, your finishes are all fantastic! The fabric you chose for the LHN pillow is perfect, and the covered buttons just make it. And I think your bow looks smashing. :o)
Lovely finishes Cathy! I love those LHN pillows - I must go and see what Autumn looks like.
Lovely work, Cathy. I'm working on the Season of Growth piece right now and I must say that I wish I'd chosen the same color of fabric that you did. It's lovely on that fabric and the pillow is beautiful.
Nice finishes! Congrats to your daughter too! I love how she personalized it to look more like your own dog.
