I am so pleased with myself this afternoon because I have just finished Sergei - the very elegant bird from Plum Street Samplers.
I started this one back in April 2012 while I was away on holiday as it was the smallest piece of stitching I could find to take with me. I have barely touched it since then, but decided to finish it off before I got back on to the huge task (for me) of finishing off Christmas at Hawk Run Hollow.
I have stitched on it a little in the last week or so, but this morning I sat by the window with the early morning sunlight streaming in and started working on him. I completed the last stitches about an hour ago, and as it is very hot here now it was getting rather sticky for stitching.
So, ta da !! here is Sergei !!
I know, I know - sorry it is not ironed! As I said above I was so chuffed that I wanted to share it straight away and it really is a bit too hot for ironing! (honestly!)
It is stitching night tonight, so if it is cooler, I will be able to move back onto CHRH and see if I can get into the swing of doing one block a month.
Thanks for popping in,
Mary
