I been a busy bee this weekend! Hurray for me :) It was the perfect weekend...laid back, lots of crafting and family time...AND my DH and I went on a date! Yippee!
The only thing I can show you is, my Round #3 Fair and Square friendship squares finished off into a pinkeep. These were stitched by my partner for this round Staci (who doesn't have a blog). Here they are: (pictures are clickable for clarity)
I also finished 2 stitched birthday presents!!! Whoop!!! Those are going in the mail tomorrow so An and Nicole...watch your mailboxes!Off to pull my projects for more exchanges and the Hello Neighbor RR.....
Until next time, may your needle dance across your canvas!
The pinkeep is so cute. I love it.
ReplyDeleteHope you had a grand time on your date!
Great finishing! You did a fantastic job with the squares you received.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful finishes, Vonna! I really like the mattress pinkeep. I want to try that finishing technique sometime. Do you happen to have a tutorial for it?
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely finish for your squares! I always admire what a super job you do on these.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you took some time for yourself and had that date!
Looks wonderful! Great job on the finishing!
ReplyDeleteA lovely pinkeep!
ReplyDeleteWonderful finish on the F&S squares! I got my sewn into an ornament, but I still need to stuff and close it. ;)
ReplyDeleteWhoopee! Your pinkeep looks great. Staci stitched you some mighty fine squares! I wish I had decided to finish my squares into smalls: now I can't really do anything with them until I have enough to start my quilt!
ReplyDeleteI'm SO glad you took the time to relax this weekend. A restful weekend was long overdue, wasn't it? AND you've been on a date too! Good for you. You certainly deserve it!
PS. I will stand watch beside the mailbox...
Wow !!! Lovely squares and finishes! I am so behind on my commenting! Your children are so adoreable!!!
ReplyDeleteHow was your date???
I am also doing CdC! But only in one color an overdyed. Your CdC is beautiful I can't wait to see more! We have a blog going as well. The link is in my sidebar..if you'd like to look..

ReplyDeleteWhat a great pinkeep--I adore the little squirrels!
ReplyDeleteHi Vonna! Adorable pinkeep! A weekend of crafting.. yes, that is PERFECT!!! It is raining heavily here today - wish I was not at the office but at home stitching! This weather calls for it, not for working! (My first client agrees and cancelled due to her lack of interest in driving in the stuff too).
ReplyDeleteYour pinkeep is so pretty! That's nice that you and hubby got to go on a date. Movie, dinner? Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteYour pinkeep is very pretty! And I love the old sewing machine!
ReplyDeleteVonna,
ReplyDeleteYour pinkeep came out really nice.
It's always such a treat to see what you have come up with - so inspirational. I really appreciate all your encouraging comments on my blog. I look forward to seeing what you do with Hope Perches!
ReplyDeleteThat is a lovely finish Vonna. I love your CDC too. I also have a plan lol but when I'll get time to stitch on it next is another matter. xx
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great weekend! Cute finish!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful finishing job Vonna!
