RSC19 - Yellow


Working a few more string blocks while digging thru that Yellow Monster.  Seems even my gifted scraps are lacking some bright and happy yellows, but I found enough to complete the few blocks I need for the String Hop project.


There wasn't a lot of backstitch to do on this little piece, but this one is now ready to be fabric framed into a little Valentines.  It has felt good to get back to my cross stitch.  A small project each month is very doable as well as satisfying.

I am going into 'quilt mode' for the next few days.  With a week predicted of back-to-back snow storms, hunkering down with finishing up some long waiting 'to be quilted' projects will pass the time.

Sewingly Yours,
Sharon

Pretty strings and nice cross stitch. Yep hunker down and quilt sounds like a good plan

Your little cross stitch heart is beautiful. Yes, with that weather expected it sounds like quilting is a most excellent idea. Enjoy!

I need to figure out a project for the three day sew-in coming up at the end of the month. Love your stitchery!
