Stitchy Minds Think Alike: Spring has sprung? Not where I live.
http://stitchymindsthinkalike.blogspot.com/2014/03/spring-has-sprung-not-where-i-live.html
Stitchy Minds Think Alike. Thursday, 20 March 2014. Not where I live. Happy First Day of Spring? Of course 03/20/2014 marks the official start of Spring but here in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada we are getting more weather coming. It has been a long one. Feels like forever since we wore short sleeves and sandals. This picture captures my every feeling of weather related issues right now. Used DMC 823 for the border instead of suggested Gold Kreinik. I love how it turned out! Of course, I have been worki...

Stitchy Minds Think Alike: January 2013
http://stitchymindsthinkalike.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Stitchy Minds Think Alike. Thursday, 3 January 2013. Finishing a notorious legend. Red Lady Pirate. There is something about Nora Corbett's "The Red Lady Pirate" that captivated me from the start. I just always loved her. I bought a piece of Sunny Dyes Pacific Sunset fabric a full year ago knowing that it was the perfect fabric for her. But I never really got her in line for my to do list. I was given the choice to kit any pattern from Hawkins Hobbies. Many of my projects will take residence in my closet...

Stitchy Minds Think Alike: May day! May day!
http://stitchymindsthinkalike.blogspot.com/2015/05/may-day-may-day.html
Stitchy Minds Think Alike. Friday, 1 May 2015. Well it is May 1st, 2015 and I am almost a year behind on blogging. Damn - time flies. I have gotten myself into a place in my stitching habits where I find myself starting many things and finishing few. Although, I do have projects that I have completed since my last post almost a year ago. Frosty Forest by Country Cottage Needleworks on Foggy Morning Opal 32 count linen by Crafty Kitten. Another piece that I was able to complete was something I stitched on...

Stitchy Minds Think Alike: March Madness!
http://stitchymindsthinkalike.blogspot.com/2014/03/march-madness.html
Stitchy Minds Think Alike. Wednesday, 5 March 2014. Well February kinda flew didn't it? Good riddance. Where I live February is a messy cold dreary month - weather wise. I have had lot of progress on various projects. My current rotation seems to be working well for me:. Project at work to do at lunch hours - which is currently "Letters By Nora C". Project at home during the evenings and weekends - which is currently "Persephone". Letters by Nora "C" or Cassandra. Green is in progress, Yellow is still in...

Stitchy Minds Think Alike: December 2012
http://stitchymindsthinkalike.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Stitchy Minds Think Alike. Tuesday, 18 December 2012. Back on the blogging train. Bad blogger, bad, bad. I haven't posted in over a month. Truth be told I have been settling into my new life out West. I have made a few little hikes out into the mountains and it is so beautiful here. I have been stitching and I did get some things done. Let's just say pictures after Christmas shall we? The good news about this being the last round in the Round Robin means that mine is coming home soon! I have just discove...

Stitchy Minds Think Alike: November 2013
http://stitchymindsthinkalike.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Stitchy Minds Think Alike. Friday, 22 November 2013. All hail the Queen Mermaid. I am proud to present in her full glory Mirabilia's Queen Mermaid on Crafty Kitten's 32 count Aurora (murano). She is glorious and dripping with luxury. She has always been on my must do list but it became really possible for me when my amazing friend Sharon Attwells gifted me the "bling" to finish kitting her up. I had the pattern, I had the fabric. beads in hand - how could I not? Now that is a fun store! Gardenia on Blue ...

Stitchy Minds Think Alike: September 2012
http://stitchymindsthinkalike.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Stitchy Minds Think Alike. Friday, 21 September 2012. Saying goodbye and new beginnings. Time is ticking away quickly. I am moving from New Brunswick to Alberta in less than two weeks. Every time I do something now, I wonder if it is my "last time". They don't have a website but they do mail out orders! Always a phone call away: 506-856-8282. Today when I said my goodbyes I was given hugs - it was hard not to have a few tears by me. As a stitcher, having their support has been so wonderful! I had some ve...

Stitchy Minds Think Alike: Trip to Toronto and narrowing down the WIPS
http://stitchymindsthinkalike.blogspot.com/2014/06/trip-to-toronto-and-narrowing-down-wips.html
Stitchy Minds Think Alike. Thursday, 12 June 2014. Trip to Toronto and narrowing down the WIPS. While I was in Toronto our must stop was to BeadFX. We probably spent well over and hour there picking out little treasures to add to our stash. I really enjoy these embellishments and use them to enhance my pieces and make them unique. I also brought with me my Frosty Forest piece. I am caught up again and awaiting my next pattern from Colours By Lalena. Three more blocks to go! I used DMC 930, 932 as well as...

http://stitchymindsthinkalike.blogspot.com/2014/02/autumn-glow-frosty-forest-and-other.html
Stitchy Minds Think Alike. Wednesday, 12 February 2014. Autumn Glow, Frosty Forest and other updates. Nothing is better this time of year, given our terrible cold and snowy weather, than nice long blocks of stitching time. I just collected my updates for this blog and realized I look pretty productive - stitching wise - but I have terrible weather to thank for that. First finish of 2014 is here. Miss Autumn Glow is done. She is stitched up on Mystical Garden Opal by Crafty Kitten. I had the privilege of ...
