I'm Still Here.....

I know it has been a week since I last post. I'm still here, just been busy - not at stitching, though.... My mom came to visit us so I was cleaning the house before she came, and now she is here, we spent lots of time doing things I hardly have down time to stitch!!! Not that I'm complaining or anything, I love it when she is here cause that means there will be delicious homemade food to eat~~ Mom's cooking is always the best!!!

I did managed to finish one of the Lizzie Kate Christmas designs, and although I struggled with the fabric I used, I love how it turned out. It is so interesting that by just adding an extra blue color with the traditional red and green, the mood of the entire design can be changed. Lizzie Kate just has impeccable taste in her color selections!!!!

Pattern: Lizzie Kate "Tiny Tidings XII - Joy"
Thread: DMC cotton floss
Fabric: 32ct Belgium linen
Size: 3.5" x 3.5"

I also worked on the Heart and Hand design a little bit. I finished the little prince in this pattern and now they look so cute with each other~ The color variation on the border is also very interesting. I hope I will have some time to stitch it more this week.....
