SAL-Project Summer House-#5

I am doing a happy dance because other than the one yellow color I am missing for the sunflowers, I have finished Summer House 🏠 💛.

Here is where I left off last update:

And here I am now:

I have already started another project, and the way I am moving through this one, I should have it done within a couple of updates.

This project is called Bierdermeier Bouquet, by Modern Folk Embroidery.

It’s a blank chart, so you get to pick your own thread colors.

The thread is variegated, so it gives an interesting effect. I plan on using this project to recover my kitchen desk chair. It needs a lift!

Now off to see what the other ladies in the group are stitching! Links to their blogs below. Thank you, Avis, for organizing this Stitch-a-Long.

See you in three weeks!

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.

  1. That’s a gorgeous summer house! Enjoy your Happy Dance and dust off your shoes ready for next time because you’ll be needing them again 🙂 Beautiful colours in the new project. You can’t go wrong with variegated threads for this type of design.

  2. I love the summer house, the outlining really makes it shine. Your new project sounds fun and useful too. I have been trying to use my projects for something besides framing too. It is a great creative challenge!

  3. I love the colors you have chosen for the new project. I hope you get that yellow floss soon so that Summer House can be fully finished.
