I finished up a new heart to display on my mini quilt stand! The only problem is that this is June's heart and May's heart is actually the strawberry one. But no one at my house minds (or even knows, lol) so I'll just go with this one!
It's finally planting time here, so I bought some seeds for my flower garden. How about some purple coneflowers, just like in the heart embroidery?!
This week I also finished stitching the two smaller side sections of my Gail Pan basket embroidery design. They'll need some blue border trim like the main section has, and then I'll stitch it all together!
Moving those two hand stitching projects forward meant I had time to start something new! I've always loved Melisa's mini samplers, so when I saw that she had shared a new one, I knew that was what I wanted to work on. This is just the beginning of the Mini Rose Sampler found at PinkernPunkin.
There are plenty more letters to stitch and then a pretty rose garden border,
so that will keep me busy for Slow Sunday Stitching!

Happy Sunday, Diann. Such a beautiful display for the month of May! Your heart quilt for the month is as pretty as can be. Thank you again for stitching it. I just love how you display them each month. I hope you will keep us updated on how your flowers do. Enjoy working on the little rose sampler. Hugs.
Love your heat embroidery. These always make a nice little display each month. Your new sampler looks like fun. Will this be another little bowl filler? Have a great week! Gail at the cozy quilter.
You always have such a lovely display of minis! I’m really loving your table runner project. Enjoy your stitching today.
Oh, that heart is so pretty!
Cute embroidery. Those coneflowers will be pretty!
How pretty is that heart, even if it isn't for May - lol! The Gail Pan basket project is just beautiful. Enjoy your stitching Sunday!
Your June embroidered purple coneflowers are really pretty. Your blue panel is going to be just gorgeous. Happy stitching this week.
I have and love purple cone flowers in one of my flower beds, in looking at them yesterday there aren't as many of them as there used to be. The beds have so many leaves in them and I am in need of cleaning them all out which I started yesterday and will do more today.
Such pretty projects!
You will enjoy the cone flowers. How fun to have them in the garden as well as in your embroidery!
I love purple Coneflowers and they will come back if you let them seed by themselves - all of the cone flowers that are still growing in my yard and gardens are from a packet of seeds that I bought at Thomas Jefferson's Monticello back in the mid 80's
I hope to plant echinacea this year. I finally have a sunny location. I downloaded the Rose Sampler too! If those octopuses ever are finished😆!
Your beehive heart and Gail Pan embroidery are so pretty. I like your newest project also.
Love the Heart and display stand! As long as what's displayed brings joy, no worries if it's not necesarily for the designated month. Oh, you remind me I purchased some of those same seeds last year. I have to dig them out to spread in our community garden!
Your heart is beautiful and I love your display :)
I love your quilt stand and mini pillows display, Diann!!! Seeing your coneflower seeds reminds me that I have some coneflower fabric that needs making!?! I do love coneflower in the garden, too!!!
You have a nice table display. Isn't it fun to change out the little quilt each month?
Your stitcheries are so sweet! I love the table runner! I don't know why, but it has taken me a few years to establish the purple coneflower in my garden, but I do see a couple returning this year...I count that as success! :)
