In the red...

I did a lot of slow stitching with red this week, and I used a variegated DMC - 4205 - Caliente.  I love stitching with variegated floss!  It makes the shape you're stitching fun and interesting to look at.

A mitten - 

And a bunch of red flowers in the International Embroidery Month design from Crabapple Hill Studios.


I'm going to keep working on both of these for my slow stitching today and this week.  There's a snowman to add to the mitten stamp, and some unusual spiky flowers in the Crabapple Hill design that are gray, white, and yellow.  

Have a wonderful Sunday!  Linking up with Kathy's Quilts for Slow Sunday Stitching.
