Since I have my homework for "Ann Dale" completed for this month, I decided to get some stitching done on Carriage House Samplings "Frederick". His mate "Frederika" has be completed for almost a year and it's time to make them a pair!
I know many of you have already stitched these two designs. I just love the quirkiness of the CHS designs. After these are framed, they will be displayed with some of my redware in my kitchen. C'mon...stitch, stitch stitch!
Here's Miss Frederika

Oh boy, these colors did not photograph well! I really need to work on my photography skills. Y'all photograph your projects so nicely...they seem to jump off the page. Mine...don't! Bear with me ... I'm going to keep working on that! Here's my progress on Mr. Frederick.
I'm hoping to have them together soon!
Until next time...enjoy your stitching!
Your photos are clear and great. Putting these designs with redware pieces is genius!

ReplyDeleteHi, Lanie, I just saw that you are a new follower of my blog, and I went to your link and joined yours! Are you stitching on Ann Dale? So large and so beautiful.

Hi, again,
ReplyDeleteI just read further and saw your beautiful Ann Dale? Also, do you know that you have that nasty word verification thingy on your blog? Blogger makes it so hard to comment, I lot of people are removing theirs. You can't see it but everyone commenting has to decipher 2 unreadable words.

Hi Lanie! Thanks for visiting my blog. Fredericka looks gorgeous! And Frederick is really coming along too. Just a heads up that your comment is set to "no reply" email so I came here to say thanks and added you to my reader. :)
