As you can see, my stitching of the Beatrix Potter Sampler is coming along!! I just LOVE stitching on this!! I'm enjoying the Everlasting color choice from www.hand-dyedfibers.com, but worried about running out, so Vikki Clayton came to my rescue when I emailed my worries. I do have enough, but just in case, I ordered some complimentary skeins of Quince that is part of the color palette with the Everlasting. I already have the other complimentary color called Fish Pepper, so I think I'll experiment a bit and do a couple of the smaller medallions in the more solid choices. I hope it will liven things up and make it more interesting.In the meantime, I need to still knit the companion Ribby Slipper so that the other one I finished isn't lonely...also, don't want to look silly walking around in one slipper...ha ha.
So glad I have my stitching and knitting to help keep me sane!

Oh how lovely.....you are such a masterful stitcher. So are you dreaming of bunnies in blue jackets as you stitch away???? XXX Annelies
The Vikki Clayton silks are a dream to stitch with...no knots and no tangling...unbelievable! So I'm loving that part of the journey with these new-to-me threads.
How beautiful. I miss stitching, but my eyes just won't focus well enough. My last attempt was when Amanda graduated and it was very sad looking.
Exquisite! (Looking forward to watching it progress!)
Ah Hah! I found you. :) I didn't notice on Ravelry that you have a blog. Thanks for checking in at Buttercup Corner. It's nice to "meet" you finally! And by the way, your Beatrix Potter project is gorgeous!
