Today.....
I worked on my Dear Diary Sampler! I've decided that I'm going to try to stitch one of the Dear Diary patterns each month...wouldn't that be grand if I could do that? We'll see.... but before I count my chicks before they are hatched - I have to share with you my finish. Today I slipped in the final stitches on Abigail Winslow and here it is:
Dear Diary Series ~ Abigail WinslowDesigner: Little House Needleworks ~ Diane Williams
Part #1 of Vonna's Dear Diary Sampler
And.....
here is the big piece of fabric that I'm stitching it on....I have a vision for this, let's hope that it comes together as I have it charted. But basically it will incorporate each of the 8 Dear Diary Patterns, plus their beatitude squares "framing" it. In between the beatitude squares I will link each one with a flowering ivy. Or that is what I have envisioned :)

Vonna and Happy Thursday to you too. I just love your Dear Diary idea of stitching one per month and putting them all on the same piece of cloth. Now patience is definitely not one of my virtues that is for sure. Lots of Love Patti xxx
ReplyDeleteVonna, it is looking great so far! Love it :)
ReplyDeleteI made a new start this morning :) I'll be posting it a little later today :)
Can't wait to hear about and see your new start :)
((hugs))
Vonna, whatever your design is, I'm sure it will be FAB-u-lous!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely idea Vonna, I look forward to seeing it emerge on that huge piece of fabby! can't wait to see your new start too. :-)
ReplyDeleteVonna, this is super! I had thoughts of doing the same sort of thing with the Little Women series. I can't wait to see your new start!
ReplyDeleteYour Dear Diary series is going to look fantastic Vonna!
ReplyDeleteWow, Vonna, that's an ambitiously large piece of fabric, and a great start!!
ReplyDeleteVonna, it is lovely so far! And I think if anyone can get a dear diary stitched per month, you can!!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see your new start!!
It looks great so far! I can't wait to see what you have dreamed up for the series!
ReplyDeleteVonna, the DD finish is fantabulous! I love it. I also love your idea about stitcing all one one piece. How big will it be??
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see the next one.
Vonna, FANTASTIC. That is going to be one gorgeous piece. Keep up the great work girl!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely start. Looks like it will be really beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWonderful start. Doing one a month sounds like a good idea.
ReplyDeleteDon't you just love new starts. I can't wait to see your's.
ReplyDeleteDear Diary is lookin' goooood!
Have a great evening. And stitch with happy fingers.
I love your idea - it will be fantastic! Looks great so far.
ReplyDeleteYour ideas for "Dear Diary" sound awesome, and knowing your talent, it will be stunning when you finish. I, too, am impressed with the size of the project. I'm thinking that perhaps you might give Annemarie's Mrs. Slocombe a run for her money.
ReplyDeleteI was just thinking about you and this project recently. I was wondering if you would get back to it! I'm so glad you are. I know I will enjoy watching your progress on this one! :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a wonderful idea! Beautiful start!
ReplyDeleteLove the DD sampler. Such a great idea! Can't wait to see your next progress picture.
ReplyDeleteIt's a super start ! I'll be following your progress and drawing inspiration from you to put in at least a few stitches a day on my WIP ;>
ReplyDeleteThis is such a wonderful idea. Love your first DD and am looking forward to seeing it all take shape.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend.
So nice, you're so fast with your needle!!!

ReplyDeleteThe neighborhood in the post below is gorgeous!
More Frank Sinatra! Love it!
Your plans for this finish sound just wonderful! I'm looking forward to watching your progress :)
ReplyDeleteVonna, it looks wonderful! Thank you for the warm welcome back.:)
ReplyDeleteIt is looking amazing and I can not wait to see what you have in mind!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice plan to stitch all the diaries together with the beatitudes framing them. And congratulations on finishing the first.
