It is still very cold today. There has been no walking. I'm taking the day off as my car is still in the shop. I am very excited since my cabinet is to be delivered today! But it is coming from Chicago and there is a big snow storm in Chicago. I've got my fingers crossed that the delivery company can get here. Hopefully, I'll have pictures of it tomorrow.
I got a package from The Silver Needle yesterday. I thought it would be the Just Nan stuff. But it was the Nashville Market stuff that I asked them to get for me. One was the Erica Michael's By the Sea.
I have a thing for mermaids and really liked this. I can't find where it says the gauge of the gauze used for the necklace. I guess that it would be 40. I can handle that.
The second thing I got was The Purple Thread's Nora's Garden.
I like the pink and green colorway. I couldn't help myself, I had to start it.
I may change some of the colors. The leaves look too pale compared to the front photo. The overdyed linen isn't too bad, just a little floppy. I love that all the materials for finishing are included.
Have a good day.

I love your stitches! Adding By the Sea to my wishlist, what a lovely pattern. The little houses remind me of vacations I used to take to the Outer Banks. Nora's Garden's border is very pretty!
ReplyDeleteI also got By the Sea, it's a "must have". :)
ReplyDeleteLove those Purple thread kits, they are always so cute.
Great start!
