Another late finish and picture for me. This was a very quick stitch for me. Its Tulip Bunny by Just Nan.  I stitched it on a 28 count white linen with plain old DMC floss.

I've been trying to force myself to stitch on linen a little more.  Its not as bad as I remember. I still wouldnt stitch anything large on it. Well, that is not completely true. I am stitching Spring Quaker by Rosewood Manor on linen. I think that saying "I am stitching" Spring Quaker may be a tad bit strong and misleading. I  don't think I have picked it up in 3 months or so. Its not the linen that is bothering me though. Its the Valdani floss. Its beautiful but its feels very course and I really don't like working with it. Its going to be beautiful though if and when I ever finish it.......Anyway..........

I was going to make this into a fob but wanted to crochet an edging for it so I made it into a little pillow instead.   I took 2 pictures of it because in the first one the button looks like its on crooked and the ribbon in the lace looks bumpy.  The button is on right and the lace is flat its just my picture. Taking pictures is not one of the 100 things I do well. 




Maybe I will drag out the Spring Quaker tomorrow and post a picture of it. Maybe that will shame me into working on it.......

See you tomorrow.
