Stitch Maynia: Day 18 American Flag Quilt Sampler

Day 18: American Flag Quilt Sampler by Rosewood Manor. This is how far I got in only an hour😎



I have had the pattern for this in my stash for awhile after seeing a few fellow bloggers stitch it, and I had really been aching to start this!  When I first started stitching I never would have considered starting this design but I guess my taste has changed a bit and I am drawn more towards primitive designs than I used to be.

So far it seems to be stitching up quite quickly.  I haven't had a chance to stitch on this again but I really should.  It is stitched on 18 count Aida.  There are a few fractional stitches but hopefully it won't be too bad on the Aida.

See you soon...Happy Stitching!

11/30/12 Friday Progress Teacups 6th Finish!

Happy Friday everyone!  This has been a great week for me.  I completed my 6th finish for the year my teacup quilt square for World of Charity Stitching just in time to send it back to the US to hopefully arrive before its deadline :) 

Below is the finished piece that came together pretty well.  I am not 100% satisfied with all of the colors.  There was a little confusion when I tried to translate Anchor colors into DMC but all in all I think it looks great and hopefully some deserving person or organization will appreciate it when it is made into the final
Quilt.

This week I have also been trying to perfect my Christmas Card design and I plan to work on that while my baby naps today.  It has also been a great week for Craft companies showing their wonderful customer service but I will write more about that tomorrow.

Happy Weekend and Happy Stitching!
