Welcome to my Blog! My world is my husband and son (soon to be moving into his own home) and my step-children (fully grown) and our two cats who are definitely ying and yang. My day job is as Deputy Clerk of my home town in Western, NY but when I get home I have two side gigs, one as a professional private baker, and two, as an Etsy shop owner selling vintage and antique dishes and accessories. I have been gardening and growing my own food since my grandfather taught me at the ripe old age of 5. I stitch, I bake, I grow food, I can and preserve, I grocery shop to save money and eat well and boy do I have massive to-do lists. I hope you enjoy my day to day writings.

Any stitching is progress is the way I see it… love to see both these projects.
I understand the MFE SAL is quite stitch intensive so it’s no wonder you haven’t made as much progress on your Fraktur piece as you might have liked. Still, any progress is better than none!
There’s plenty of progress on both of your projects! I like that you’re doing the outer border first — sometimes I leave that till last and then I get bored — but you have all the middle to look forward to!

Actually they are both Modern Folk embroidery designs but I changed the color choices on it instead of going with the monochrome. Thank you! š

Yes it is! I still have screwed up a few more times on it though so I will be relieved when I get it finished.
