I can't believe where this week has gone...one day it was Monday, and all of a sudden it is Saturday. Today is the day my grandaughters who I have not seen for 2 years are coming to visit. Just an overnight stay, but I am sooooo looking forward to it.
I did accomplish something this week, working on the buttonhole stitch. This such a versatile stitch, and the more you explore the more ways you find to use it. First I added a piece to the page I started for fly stitch.
The buttonhole flower is one I had already worked for the Stitch Files.
Then I got carried away and worked a sampler for the Stitch Files. I like the little cat so much I used him twice.
Now I had better fly I have lots to do.
Very nice, Shirley! I'm a bit slow this week.....still working on mine......have a marvelous visit!
