Spring Fling 2017

Long overdue post. I’m kind of surprised at how long it took me to stitch these three pieces! This was the project from Spring Fling 2017. Barb and Alma from Blackbird Designs were there; it’s always a delight to see these two ladies!

Here’s my finished stitching:


The top right piece will be framed in a frame that we painted and waxed in class. It’s called “The Lily of the Valley.”

The bottom piece will be finished as a drum and it’s called “And Blossom as the Rose.” The top left piece is for the top of the drum.

I need to have a couple of serious finishing days pretty soon. I’m racking up the stitching finishes, but need some dedicated time to fully finish these pieces!

I think I might return to the Blackbird Designs project from Spring Fling 2019. I have one more piece left to stitch and it sure would be nice to have another finish in March!

Great finishes! With me it always take much longer to complete a piece than I think it should
