I know, it has been a few weeks! I have not been stitching as much as I would like, but have done another three motifs on Mary Wigham.....
I am happy with how she is coming out, and still on target for finishing her this year. I am still on the fence over the yellow, but will wait 'til the end to decide to switch it out possibly????
Another project I did was for my cousin's new baby, Gianna Rose. Her Christening was this past Sunday, so I am now able to share it with you. Since the theme in the baby's bedroom is Winnie-the-Pooh, I found a sweet pattern called Pooh and Piglet's Room online from the UK.
It seemed very girl-ie to me, lots of pink and purple :D
While the pattern did not call for personalization aside from the name in the pink ribbon, I decided to put the birth date and weight in the dandelion that Pooh and Piglet are blowing into the wind :)
....and lots of french knots! Love them!
I hope the piece brings her lots of joy and smiles! :D
So now I will be switching back to Rachel Hyde and the neglected Elizabeth Hancock....trying to get to the finish line on that one soon!
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Have a wonderful week and Happy Stitching!! xx

Krista, that birth sampler is so sweet. The colors are so wonderful and I love the way you added the date and weight.
Mary is looking great. You have gotten a lot done.
I love how you did the birth sampler! So clever to put the birth date and weight in the dandelion fluff! Such a cute piece too -- love Pooh! Mary Wigham looks great too!
That is awesome how you added the birthdate and weight. Love it. I like the yellow in Mary. :)
Mary is coming along! Mine still sits packed away and neglected...
Being a pooh fan, I love this birth sampler ~ and your personal touches make it even more special!
Congratulations on your finish and your Mary is looking beautiful :)
Mary Wigham looks beautiful Krista. Your Winnie The Pool birth sampler is just darling and I like the way you personalized it:)
Oh, Krista the "Pooh & Piglet" you stitched is adorable! Doesn't everyone just love Pooh...what a great nursery theme!! The birth date and weight personalization is perfect! A very sweet "welcome" gift for baby Gianna.
How sweet is that Pooh birth sampler!! I just love it, Krista :)
Nice progress on Mary! I always struggle to find the right yellow. What a sweet, sweet birth sampler. And a neat way to add the date and weight. :)
Mary Wigham is gorgeous and so special. I like the yellow because it's subtle but if you aren't happy with it, it's best to trade it out for another yellow you like :D
Sweet baby sampler too! I love french knots! They are fun to make!!
MW is lovely, I know what you mean with the yellow, I do change colors a lot too, put your own stamp on it:)
Pooh & Piglet are fabulous!
I love how you altered the Pooh piece to have info in the flowers. It is too stinking cute!
