Hey,
Friends!
But does
it feel like spring in your town? I'm still seeing snow around on many blogs. Fairly
typical for inland South Carolina - cold nights (20s – 30s) mild (50s – 60s)
days. The first weekend of official
spring has started with this Saturday about 35` and rain with a forecast of 50s.
I finished With
Thy Needle and Thread’s April Word Play.
I had seen a Fuzzy Bunny Tail description and
decided to give this little guy something different, too.
And speaking of
using your repertoire of specialty stitches, did you see Tommye’s grass on this
Easter piece? Brilliant! Mary Corbet had an article about surface
embroidery that I think could be a sweet touch to some fun cross stitched
pieces.
Thanks for
stopping by, today and always. I
appreciate your thoughts and comments!
May 2013 be
filled with Happy Stitching!
Peace♥Love♥Joy

Charlene, a nice touch of spring stitching in otherwise Springless weather! Pure depressing. But it'll be 95+ before we know it! Love , love those surface embroidery kits. I started stitching with embroidery..crude rather than crewel! Haha. But I've always loved it.
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet finish!! Reminds me that it's Spring even though it doesn't feel like it. I did see Tommye's grass and I thought that it looked wonderful.
ReplyDeleteYour finish is so cute! I love the tail !! I also went and looked at the grass! A great different idea for sure!
ReplyDeleteI love your finish -- so cute with the little tail! I do love the grass on Tommye's blog. I can't wait for spring...
ReplyDeleteSweet stitch. I am working on an Easter stitch myself. Lots of snow and ice left up here.
ReplyDeletewell the daffodils have bloomed as well as the crocus .... then we have had 7 inch of snow dumped on us since last night and it looks like there might be more to follow !!!!
ReplyDeletewell done on your lovely finish and think that brick stitch looks cool for hippity hop :) love mouse xxxxx
Wonderful finish... I am happy for the rain to wash all of the pollen away! Not a big fan of "allergy" spring right now. Happy stitching...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful finish, Charlene! I love all these little samplers but have yet to do one. I really like how you did his tail. Spring feels like it may never arrive in Michigan!
ReplyDeleteCute finish. Love his tail :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on finishing the word play. I love that series. I keep thinking if I stitch Spring-y things it will convince Mother Nature to "straighten up". She doesn't appear to be listening. Take care!
ReplyDeleteWe were in Chicago that day and it was only 11 degrees when we got up. Brrrr! We were kind of happy to head on home.
ReplyDeleteI love your April word play ;)
ReplyDeleteYou finished your beautiful April sampler for spring. But yes its still cold:) And I'm in California. But we do have lots of sun. love Annette
ReplyDeleteIt sure doesn't feel like spring here - may even have sleet/freezing rain tomorrow morning. I love the fluffy bunny tail - so cute and adds so much dimension to the design.
ReplyDeleteA lovely spring finish!!
ReplyDeleteI just pulled the threads for this one myself, Charlene! Yours turned out so cute :) Love that fluffy tail--I will have to remember that idea!
ReplyDeleteYes, there is no sign of spring up our way--we had four more inches of snow Sunday night :( At least we had a two-hour delay for work--that is a first!!
Wishing you and your family a Happy Easter!
Lovely finish, congrats! No spring here yet, it's cold and rainy...
ReplyDeleteYour April word play looks great.
