Remember this?
One of the exchange pieces I'm finishing off is going to be a pinkeep. I'd never made one before, so decided to practice with this little freebie (Four Little Hearts by Indigo Rose) that I stitched ages ago. I'd always meant to turn it into a pinkeep and finally here it is!
I'm really happy with it and it brings my redwork collection up to two pieces!
Thanks for all the comments on Earth. I've decided to concentrate on her for a little and do a different Quick Stitch for the Wednesday SAL. In fact, I have a new sort of 'rotation'. Wednesdays is the Quick Stitch SAL, and the first weekend of the month (this weekend coming up!) is my CHS alphabet SAL with Karen. Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays I'm going to work on exchanges, round robins and gifts. Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays I can work on whatever I like but I'm going to concentrate on one thing at a time to try to make some progress. So, at the moment I'll work on Earth until something else screams louder. I want to get her finished this year!
