-not too much stitching this week
but I have begun Bird in Hand
the talented ladies of BBD SAL keep me inspired and motivated


















I was going to stitch pink on brown....but chose scarlet and chartreuse instead
something different- we shall see how it turns out-













DH has come along way on knitting a scarf for one of his nieces


that is all for this week
pleasant handicraft hours to each of you....

  8. Oh Corinna,
    your stitch 1X1 is wonderful!
    About your question to respect of my BBD.
    I have left a small empty place for my initials,
    but I owe to think, it is so beautiful that didn't want to add more....
    :)
    Kisses, have you a good WE!

  10. OMG Corinna! You stitch your birdie in PP on a dark linen! How can your eyed handle that? Isn't it rather difficult? But it looks sooo lovely!
    *smile* Your DH has come a looong way on the scarf. How much more is he going to knit on it? He is doing a great job on it!
