IHSW Weekend

Donot forget this is the IHSW weekend I plan on finishing my Pines Sampler from Jeanette Douglas, I was going to have it finished on july fourth but had to put it aside because of company that day and because of work, finally I am seeing the end of the tunnel.
I only have about three hours left to finish stitching, then off to get framed.
I want to remind you to go over to Nancy at http://victorianmottosamplershoppe.blogspot.com, she is having a great givaway, also she has her full collection of threads on sale for the full line, you will have to look at a couple of her previous post to find the post to sign up for the givaway, good luck.


This is something I was able to get stitched together, I love the  Just Another Button Company patterns, as you can see I have a rabbit corner going on in my entryway,  the carrot was done last fall and the Rabbit was finished last month I have not posted pictures for a while, the tall rabbit in the dress is an Annalee Mobilite doll that I found at a second hand store for a whopping five dollars, I love the look on her face.
I made a scissor protector from a pattern I found on Remake Remix Redo blog site, Conny designed this, it was a super fast stitch, I plan on making more with a different color fabric.
This little visitor was on my deck railing for a very long timr I think it is adorabl, he or she let me get very close, mom and dad were  going nuts when I went out to take this picture, the little sweetheart did finally get its wings and flew for a very long time when it finally left I sat and watched it for a long time.
Well it is afterall IHSW weekend so I need to get to stitching.
Hugs everyone.

What a cute rabbit! The scissor protector looks like a great idea - I've poked myself too many times. :) Hope you were able to get a lot of stitching in over the weekend.

Love your rabbit & carrot - I like those JABC patterns too and have to reign myself in from buying more.

I look forward to seeing your new finish when you post it!
