Good Morning Friends & Folk!
and a happy Tuesday to you all...
the weather-folk are predicting some falling 'stuff' for us this evening
and in to tomorrow night ~ a mix of snow/sleet & rain.
~ we'll make sure to have candles at the ready and plenty of wood for the stoves,
in case we lose power...
it won't bother me a bit to have to stay home due to bad weather ~
that just means more time to stitch!

Some of you might remember this:
it was back in 2015 that I designed my stitched cuff bracelet...
it reads:
"I Stitch therefore I am remembered"
 |
| "I Stitch" pattern for cross stitched bracelet available in our Etsy shop |
I have been wanting to create more designs for cuffs,
but these will be embroidered, of course!
here is the first one in progress...
~ Strawberry Cuff ~
I'm stitching this on good old stained Osnaburg {cupboard cloth}
using Valdani 3 strand variegated cotton floss,
~ which I am doubling to make 6 strands...
split stitch and stem stitches used so far ~
stems are stem stitch, the rest is split
not sure what the flowers will be yet, perhaps satin stitch or...?
since staying home while I am under treatment for my
Actinic Keratosis and using fluorouracin,
I have been getting lots of stitching done...
here is my nose today, day #8 of treatment:
keeping my mind and hands busy
~ to keep me from thinking about my nose lol!
So tell me what is in your sewing basket today??
