Stitch from Stash March Update

Stitch from Stash is hosted by Mel from Epic Stitching

Essentially the idea behind Stitch from Stash is that we are limited to spending US$25 (or £15) per month.  There are various exemptions (Birthday money, existing mag subs, clubs etc) but the idea is not to try and pervert the rules and to stitch some of that stash!  I will be posting on or around the 20th of each month because that is when I get paid!

Somebunny to Love - Bathtime Bunny

(cover kit from WOCS 213)

Snowflower Diaries - Spring Witch

Just Nan - Winter Typography

There was a little frogging action on this one, when I came to add the bird I realised that I had stitched the large Winter one row too low so the mittens and the corner motif came out and were re-stitched)

A Mon Ami Pierre - Noel Blanc

I have been alternating between the long straight rows of deer and the floral border to the left of him.

Primitive Hare - Spooky Countdown

Giovanna and I have stitched the same motif this week and will do for the next five weeks!

The Little Stitcher - Day of Gifts
