My big basket of tiny samplers is filling up!
I added the Little Red Schoolhouse Mini Sampler to the collection this week. Thank you, Melisa, for offering so many fun freebies to keep me stitching!
I realized that before I start anymore cross-stitch projects, I need to work on the September heart for my Year of Hearts collection. So I got it prepped and traced, and I've stitched the outer borders.
I need to color in some sections on this one, too.
Melisa has the apples in different colors on hers -
green, yellow, and red - so cute!
Meanwhile our apple tree is covered in tiny apples, the size of a golf ball at the most. I haven't even tried to do anything with them. I think it would take about a thousand to get enough to feed anyone!
Have a wonderful Sunday!

Apple season! I am craving apple crisp…. Great embroidery project. You have a day or two to finish it! Gail at the cozy quilter
ReplyDeleteLOL on taking a thousand apples to make anything. Maybe you need to buy a press to make yourself some cider. ;) Love your little basket of stitches. Have a fun Sunday!
ReplyDeleteYour basket is so full of love and beauty!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great basket of stitchery pillows! I'd throw a bunch in a pot and make some applesauce. Yummy.
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable basket of samplers, Diann!!!
ReplyDeleteI have been searching my craft supplies for edging to finish my pillows and then I see all of your pretty plainly finished pillows and love them. The little red school house pillow is so pretty. I like the basket of apples embroidery too. I like eating the little apples for snacks sometimes. I can't imagine trying to bake with them though. Maybe muffins or bread where you only need a couple.
ReplyDeleteYour basket of samplers is wonderful. I hope you get to stitch on your September heart! It is your day of course! Happy happy birthday! I hope there will be cake, with an apple on the side! 🙂
ReplyDeleteRed schoolhouse is charming. It wouldn’t be fun peeling a golf ball size apple.
ReplyDeleteThat is a basket full of lovelyness!
ReplyDeleteSuch a wonderful basket chock full of your lovely little creations.
ReplyDeleteYour slow stitching feels "fast" to me! It seems like you have a fully finished item at least every week!!! I like your latest finish!
ReplyDeleteOooohhhh I love the basket of tiny samplers! So many more that I want to stitch! I have the mini apple sampler ready to go, and that sunflower one is next!!
