Another CJC Project Finished and Giveaway

Last night while watching the Olympics I finished another project that I started in January as part of the year long Crazy January Challenge.  A Very Merry Christmas from JBW Designs was visited by the frog several times while I was stitching the border, I guess the excitement of the Olympics distracted me.  All I need is a tiny star button to put on top of the tree to make it truly complete.

Rooster Baby Finished

14ct Aida DMC Floss

Rooster baby was finished in March and shipped off to Pennsylvania to be added to a quilt. I stitched this one really quick, I tend to be a "leisure" stitcher taking my time stitching in the evening with the TV.  This one had to be done in 4 weeks so I was extra busy since I am not the fastest needle in the West and the TV can be distracting. 

Enjoy!!

March Madness Update for 3-11-2012

Another EMS Design and CJC 2012 Finish

I have completed the free March Flowers from EMS Designs.  This piece is en route to the the Quilts for Older Children and Adults group to be added to a  quilt for a young girl named Ailsa.  It gives me lots of pleasure to stitch for charity.  Now I have two more due in the next month for the group.  This was also on my CJC 2012 list.   So that makes three projects finished in February--hopefully I will get more stitching done in March.
