Little projects, unexpected surprises!


Working on little projects, they are almost finished.  Just have to finish the binding on these ones, then they will be done.
 The Advent calendars,  from December.
The Redwork Sampler.
Christmas Garden, Diane finished stitching hers. It looks amazing, this one is now at the framer.
Started a little knitted dress, trying out knitting in the round on circular  needles.  So far it is a lot easier than I thought it would be.  One just have to scoot the knitting along the needles continuously.
This morning we went on a field trip to our favourite stitching shop, Gitta's..   Every time we go to the shop, Catherine tells us, the Tiny Modernist Designer, will be in the shop the same day.
We do not plan it this way, it just happens.  Today, we finally met Cheryl, albeit very unexpected, in the shop. She was very nice, signed a pattern for another lady in the shop and posed for a picture with some of her new designs.  It was a treat to meet her, she is a lovely person.
 A framed piece, which was displayed in the shop. She was preparing for her trip to Nashville for Market, which is where the new designs gets unveiled. (A few of her new patterns, these are a sneak peek ?).
She also designed the Drums, which followed me home from our last field trip, in 2019.   I am stitching them,  also got Part 4 today.  The designs are all fresh with a modern twist! She is also a Canadian Designer, so if you have not checked out her designs, please do so.
