I got a late start but I decided to work on a cross stitch project that I have been getting materials ready for. I just love cross stitch and this pattern I’ve had in my stash for several years. It’s by Mirabilia and it’s called Winter Queen.

Stitch Me Up Blog Hop…..My Day!
I’ve been looking forward to today so I could show you my project. I have definitely enjoyed making my project and it has been wonderful to see what everybody else has done.
Thanks to Mdm Samm of Sew We Quilt and Jane of Jane’s Fabrics (our cheerleader) for putting together this hop. Also thanks to our sponsor Colonial Needle.
We had some wonderful patterns to choose from (Mdm Samm, Debbie, and Cindi) and I wanted to make them all. I most definitely will at some point but for the hop I choose Nana’s Chair by Debbie of Busy As Can Be.

Thanks to Mdm Samm of Sew We Quilt! and Marlene of Stitchin By The Lake hop cheerleader! Also thanks to Amy Bradley for designing this cute little pattern for this hop.
FNWF’s Result’s & Valentine Swap Gift
I got a late start last night but I decided to continue working on the past project I started for FNSI. For those who read that post know the trouble I had. I took those blocks I’d sown apart, remeasured, and resown. When I got to the end my 2 1/2″ square patches didn’t measure 2 1/2″. I was so frustrated that I just threw them out. Don’t have pictures of that. LOL
My First Paper Piece Block
I’ve been told for years that I should try paper piecing. They said “you’ll love it”! You know what? Everybody was right, I love it! At first it was a little confusing getting the placement of the fabric right. I had to cut the tape measure strip…3 x’s. After I got the fabric flipped in my head right, it was okay! Besides this BOM, I’m definitely will be doing more paper piecing!
