Mary and Me

I've tossed the floss for Mary Wigham and have decided to join the SAL.

This project will be a "first" for me, as I've never selected my own colors before. I was surprised by how easy it was (I'll say that now before the stitching begins!) to stand in front of all the DMC offerings and select the soft colors I was going for with this sampler. I selected the colors and then quickly settled on a 32 ct. antique white linen by Permin. Now to get started!

I'm still working on Jenny Bean's church, but there's not been enough progress since last time to share another photo.

Instead, I'll leave you with a photo from yesterday that captured the essence of the summer day along a garden wall. Have an enjoyable week!

Hi Teri! Thanks for visiting me and leaving a sweet comment. I cannot believe that I finished two quilts in one week. I too started Mary W but must admit that I have only just the start. I never got back to it since I decided to focus on finishing a few WIPs. Hopefully I can do some on it again soon. Seeing others start like yourself, motivate me to get back to it. You have chosen some beautiful soft colors. Have fun stithcing it!

Hugs ~
