on the HoE Christmas bird exchange. It's from a JCS ornament issue and the title is Twitter Blue. I changed the color to green and used a skein of floss I had in my stash. I do not know the name of it. Somehow it, along with my JCS issue got lost in the house! I stitched it on a 28ct opalescent linen. I really like this design and have stitched it many times. I finished the ornament after my Alaska trip and must admit, my heart wasn't in it. Hopefully Janet will excuse my lazy effort at finishing.
Lisa S was my stitching partner for the HoE Christmas bird exchange. This is what she stitched for me. The description she included has also gone missing. I do remember that she switched out the white fiber called for and that I believe it is a LHN design from a JCS issue. I am very certain that I love the ornament. Lisa and I have been partners many times. I always know I'm getting a great stitched piece when I see her name on the return address.
Last month was my stitchin' bud, bestest friend, sorority sister, Lynn's
birthday. I decided to stitch the freebie, Sister Stitcher for her from The Primitive Hare. I trimmed it in chenille. It was my first time using this trim and find it very forgiving. I love using it. I believe Lynn was happy with the giftie.
I've been stitching on my HoE Blackbird Designs ornament. I put the last stitch in tonight and will try and get it mailed tomorrow. I don't want to be late with this exchange. I love the way it turned out and hope my partner does too.
Guess that is all I have for tonight. Sounds as if we are in for triple digit heat tomorrow. Have a great evening and weekend.
