Sampler SAL weekend 1
I must admit, I didn't enjoy my stitching as much as usual last weekend. I even considered a new start but I just didn't seem in the mood for anything. I've no idea why, but it was all feeling uninspiring. I eventually picked up Blackstone, and that seemed to do the trick, but first I spent a few hours plugging away on Beatrix Potter's Quaker Sampler for the first Sampler SAL weekend.
I didn't do much but I did finish off the swan motif and start the darkest one. As long as I get a little done each month that's enough!

Lovely to see you stitching on this again Nicki. It is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteIt's a terrible feeling to be in a stitching funk. We all go through it. BP is stitching up beautifully.
ReplyDeleteOh this is looking wonderful Nicki! Love the colours you have chosen, no surprise it's red :)
ReplyDeleteLovely progress Nicki! I was feeling the same way this weekend too - uninspired, didn't do much stitching and didn't want to start anything new. Well, that all changed with my FOTM delivery yesterday and I started Strawberry Garden, so maybe you just need a little bit of retail therapy ;)
ReplyDeleteGreat work Nicki. I understand a stitching funk, I've just started stitching again after 4 months.
ReplyDeleteSometimes the stitching is just slower. ;) Your progress looks great to me!
ReplyDeleteSometimes, we just don't feel like stitching. It usually passes with time, thank heaven. Your Beatrix Potter sampler looks divine, though.
ReplyDeleteBP's looking lovely, nice progress
ReplyDeleteThis piece is so pretty. I love all the different shades of red you are using. Just lovely.
ReplyDeleteI love the colour reds you are using in this Nicki :)
ReplyDeleteI get why I just don't feel like it either ;-)
