Happy Easter! Hope you have a day planned with people and activities you love! I'm planning to enjoy a quiet day, talking to my kids on Facetime, and relaxing with a book and some sewing.
Earlier this week, I finished up these sweet strawberry designs from Melisa at PinkernPunkin Quilting. They're trimmed to 5.5 inches square and I'm looking for the perfect sashing to make a little wall-hanging. I had in mind finding a strawberry novelty print for the sashing, but I do like the look of this red and white check. Gives it a sort of "picnic basket" look, right?!
Since it's Easter, I felt like I ought to be stitching a bunny, so I pulled out a Kathy Schmitz design from July of 2022 called "Watch My Garden Grow," and got it traced and a few stitches in already.
My garden isn't really growing yet,
but we're getting closer to that time of year!
Here is the image from Kathy's site.
I liked the all green embroidery with one pink flower!
Since I enjoy stitching with variegated floss so much, I'm using DMC 4066 for this one -
Amazon Moss.

ReplyDeleteHappy Easter! Love your new bunny stitchery. I like the red and white check, it really works with those blocks.
ReplyDeleteLove that gardening rabbit! The rabbits around here would rather eat my plants than help tend them!!! The gingham is perfect for the strawberry stitcheries. Gail at the Cozy Quilter

ReplyDeleteOh yes, the red and white gingham is perfect with those sweet blocks! Cute little green bunny. The pink flower will be perfect thrown into the mix. Your Easter Sunday sounds lovely. So nice to FaceTime with your kids, with a little reading and stitching thrown in. Have a beautiful day, Diann.
ReplyDeleteYour sweet stitchery and the blueberry bread you made is making me think of the frozen strawberries I have that just might make a sweet Strawberry bread!!
ReplyDeleteYour stitcheries look amazing, Diann. I am so honored that you stitched my strawberries doodles. I can not wait to see your finish. The checked fabric is quite lovely. And that bunny is as cute as a button. I hope you had a happy Easter.
ReplyDeleteThe checked fabric works well with those four little blocks. Love the gardening bunny embroidery too. I keep popping on to Kathy S page to see when she’s going to start her stitching programme again but no luck.
