It’s been another three weeks! I worked on my big project for the first half but got an itch to start a new project which I have been working on for the past week.
Onions and Gourds is coming along. I had to change the position of the fabric and I hope to get to the right side wall of the chart by the end of the next three weeks.
Here is were I ended last time:
Here is what I accomplished up to today:
I was getting sick of greens and blacks and yellows so I downloaded four free charts from brookesbooks.com. They are the four seasons house. I have started Spring House.
Adorable isn’t it?

You have really moved on the onions and gourds, I can understand the desire for something completely different! Those are sweet little houses, a very nice change for you.

It’s hard to stay motivated on the same project but you’re getting there. The lovely houses will give a bit of light relief for a while 🙂

You always make good progress 🙂 I really like the background colors, like a blue and mauve? Did you see the brooke’s books advent calendar animals?! This house is absolutely adorable and I like the fabric color you’ve chosen. It’s good to take a little break with something different to keep you motivated.

I’d have needed a break too, long before now! Gourds and onions will be beautiful when it’s finished though. And the house will be a cutie!

Gourds and onions is a striking project but I can see why a change to some different colours was needed. Love that little cottage.
