Wipocalypse Jan 2012


My wip progress this week has been intermittent, but as you can see I am very nearly there.  Just another leaf and some boarder and "Z".  Not smokin needles but certainly active one.

From little acorns ...

Corny title when you see the stitching I know, but it is Thursday and my first stitching post for 2012! Not quite  a finish yet, but good progress so far.

Bent Creek " Acorn Sampler" stitched on Antique Linen with recommended threads.

In addition I have been busy in the kitchen creating jars of jewel Seville orange marmalade.


Looking forward to my toast tomorrow morning.
