I think I've got my next bigger project decision made, too. Over a year ago, I was involved with what is called a round robin. In our case, we were a group of four people, two in the United States, one in Canada, and one allll the way down under in Australia. We mailed our pieces around until everyone had stitched on each other's in the owner's chosen theme. Mine was tropical, and I ended up with tropical birds, but I love it all the same. It was during this process of the round robin that I fell in love with my next project: cupcakes! The lady in Australia, now a good friend of mine, had the cupcakes for her round robin theme. There were actually nine of them, and we were to stitch one cupcake. This came out of a magazine that she had, and I love it! I can't wait to make this into a pillow for my little daughter, Savannah. I've had the threads and the pink aida purchased for a very long time. At long last, I got a hold of the pattern! Yay! But, I did promise myself that I wouldn't start on it until I got the Enchanted Cottage finished, so at least I'm motivated!
Below is a picture I took after adding my cupcake to my friend's project, to give an idea of the "cupcake pillow."
Anyone who knows me, knows I also greatly enjoy TV and movies. So excited for some of the new series coming this fall, but really bummed about the cancelling of Hellcats.
Yeah, that was a bit random, wasn't it? haha... So glad it's Friday! It's the weekend of another Facebook friend's SAL, so I'm hoping to dig into Enchanted Cottage and have more progress to post on Monday! Happy stitching, everyone!!
