Needlepoint - contemplative stitching


 There is something to be said about simple stitching … in this case, one of the needlepoint panels I had languishing in my stash for ages. 

As the first bands of hurricane Henri arrive on the Connecticut shoreline I have been up for a while working away on the 3rd panel. 

Glad to have unearthed these in my stash during this last year of unsettled activity.   Still on the lookout for the fourth, now out of production kit - Irises. Perhaps one day I will find that last panel by Ehrman also. 

I have not posted for a long time now but have been stitching all along, selecting from my stash  many things I had collected over the years with notions of stitching them ALL.  They prove to be just perfect for these last months. 

Hope all is well in your part of the world… all the variety of techniques in my collection are proving once again to be most healing and useful.  So grateful for all the good things around in these times.

Happy Valentine’s Day - hoping for a finish

 Aiming for a finish on this Valentine’s Day!

Adding some finishing touches on Mary Starkey aka The Chase sampler ... some interesting textures and DMC does have a sheen ...


Hope you are all well .... more to come !
