Jessie Marie Day 5

Today's task was to stitch on an animal piece, bonus points if it's a bulldog.  Well, I don't have any bulldog pieces, but I do have dogs (of a sort).  I stitched on my piece The Pack by Pegasus Originals.  Didn't do much because it was a busy day, but I did put a few stitches in...

Jessie Marie Day 4

Today's task was to stitch on something with one of Jessie's favorite colors purple, maroon, or orange.  I chose to work on my Lavendar Sampler by Anchor.  It was a new start.  Sadly, I did not get to any of the purple stitches yet.  Oh well, the name will have to do for the challenge.

A Quilty Finish

In March, Momma and I went to the GSQA Seminar in New Orleans.  We took two classes with Rebekah Smith, a fabulous felted wool designer.  We both finished our first project the weekend of seminar (our needle rolls).  Tonight I finished my second project, the felted wool basket.  I can't believe I finished both projects the same year as seminar!  I'm off to buy a lottery ticket...

Jessie Marie Day 3

Today's task was to stitch on a piece that I was enabled to purchase.  This was Christmas by the Letter by Lizzie Kate.  This was a piece purchased by all the Lemming Stitchers (so called because we all are enabled blindly to purchase ourselves off the cliff) at my former LNS.  Thanks to Jessie's SAL, this one is a finish!!!

Today's task was to choose a piece based on the letters JMDS for Jessie Marie Does Stuff.  I chose Mr. Bear by Designs by the Needle for the letter M.

Jessie Marie Day 1

Today's task was to work on my oldest WIP.  That would be Fish City by Stoney Creek.  Here's my progress.  There's lots to show on this one because it's also my focus piece for the month of April.
