So, I started stitching up Shepherd's Bush Green Snowman. A bit of a misnomer, because he's not actually green. But the fabby is! I hope this goes as quickly as the Red Snowman did for me! One thing I'll miss is that there is no sweet little sheep on this one. I've already decided to swap the buttons out for something else. We'll see how that works out.
I have one new little purchase. My friend got me a gift certifcate to my LNS and I treated myself to this one. It's a Christmas design, but the colors are oh so pretty! They didn't have the bluish purplish color (the wording is done in that), so I'll have to pick that up later. Thanks Julie! By the way, this is a SamSarah design.
I trust everyone had a lovely and wonderful holiday season! Thank you for the comments to the Jack/Christmas video. I totally swiped that from my cousin because I loved it so much! Thanks Kim!My husband is the best. He got me a new Nikon D3000. I love this camera. Not too steep a learning curve for the auto features. I plan to really learn more about this camera in the coming months. Thanks hubby!
And thanks to anyone out there still listening and reading and commenting. I'm keenly aware of the time it takes to do so, and I appreciate when you can---and even when you can't! 'till next time,
projects are looking good Tammy! Can't wait to see your snowman develop!

The green snowman is such a fun piece. What are you going to usee in place of the "buttons"?
ReplyDeleteI have been eyeing that Sam Sarah pattern, too, I really like the flowers on it.

Tammy, what an interesting post! So happy to see you doing Green Snowman - very cute. I LOVE that new chart you've got. Thanks ladies, for mentioning it's a Sam Sarah design. Think I'll have to look into that one! :) And I'm already loving your pictures from your new camera. I'll look forward to seeing more in the future.
ReplyDeletePS. Thanks for the email - I'll reply soon!
Hi..Happy New Year to you!! The snowman is going to look great, I love the fabric you are stitching on too...it looks very fine tho, do you use a magnifier? I am debating wether to get one, as I would love to stitch on linen..I dont think my eyes would behave without one! ha,ha
ReplyDeleteLook forward to seeing more of the stitching..

Your pics are beautiful Tammy . Can't wait to see your progress on your snowman and Merry little Christmas. That 's great about the new camera. Happy New Year to you and your family!
ReplyDeleteWhat a darling start! I love this new project, and I haven't seen it before. So cute.
ReplyDeleteGood luck on your goals! Yikes, I know they can be daunting. So great to hear from you. I'll write you back today!
Hugs.
Hi! Thanks for visiting my blog and on the embroidery you just knot the thread. Some people put interfacing on the back of the fabric to hide the threads and knots. Anyway, a very happy new year to you and looks like you have lovely projects to keep you busy. Will be returning to see your progress and say hi.
ReplyDeleteI have this snowman in my stash. Am looking forward to seeing how yours turns out. In fact I think it was seeing your red snowman that prompted me to get all three!
ReplyDeleteHave fun stitching your snowman, he's a realy cutie. Love your new project too (like everyone else!) Will have to hunt that chart down ;)
ReplyDeleteNice! I just started the Purple snowman (who isn't purple)!
ReplyDeleteOhhhhhhh nice camera! Your stitching looks lovely already. The Sam Sarah designs looks fabulous with scrummy colours. No excuse for not stitching......10 minutes a day and it will zap along. I stitch at lunchtime if I'm not on playground duty and it really adds up. Luverly to see you back again!!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos! I love the new start. Yeay to your husband on the new camera. Lucky you!!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty SamSarah design and your SB is a cutie too :)
ReplyDeleteI also had a new camera for Christmas, bonus points for the men in our lives! ;)
Your Green Snowman looks good. All these new cameras around Wow.
ReplyDeleteGreat start! I can't wait to see this new design too. I actually thought that it was a Blackbird design first.
