Greetings my faithful followers: I hope this spring is being good to you, I am praying this year is a fruitful one for farmers and all who plant gardens and flowers.
I have bought some flowers to transplant into pots but will wait till it is a bit warmer at night. I have a few fully constructed projects, he first one was a gift from cardsbyruth, no longer a blogger that I could find.
It is stitched on 36 count unknown fabric with the called for threads

I finished this cigar box for one of my stitching areas, I have a few around the home where I sit and stitch
I stitched this back in
This is the inside, I used two rulers for the dividers, I put magnets under the felt fabric for needle minder and scissors, the design was stitched on 32 count unknown fabric, many of my fabrics are orphans from retreats
I stitched this up this past weekend, it is a design from 1995, I will make a drum with it, a very old Ewe and I and Friends design I stitched on 32 count with the called for threads
This is a design from https://https://happinessiscrossstitching.blogspot.com Lynn has so many adorable cat designs, stithced on 28 count unknown fabric with call for threads
Another design from Lynn at Happiness is Cross Stitching, another unknown fabric but used the colors of Irelands Flag
I had fun stitching this design from Little House Needlework's, I used 32 count linen it was a very old piece of linen
32 count I also used the called for threads
That's it for now we are having a company come over today to choose new siding for the house, ours is 25 years old and needs to be replaced.
Have an amazing week stitching and enjoying the life given to us
Catherine

My you've been busy! I love the cigar box idea, with the ruler dividers. The candle mat is so pretty! What a lovely gift! I'm looking forward to seeing your drum finished, those Ewe and I patterns were so pretty! Your St. Patrick finishes are sweet, I want to stitch the Lucky one too. So much to do, so little time. All your finishing were lovely! Happy Stitching!
Hello lovely lady , Oh my so much beautiful stitching .
You have been busy , I just wish I had more time .
We are always so busy. I do love to just sit in the garden in May and take in the new plants that are coming alive. This year all my roses are out, very early .
Have a lovely week Hugs June.
Great finishes, love the cigar box.
Sometimes we find older patterns that we never stitched!

Amazing talent and patience. Thank you so much.
God bless.
So many beautiful things Catherine!! I stitched the Old Glory for my mom a few years ago. It's back here with me now so I'll be putting it out here for the Summer holidays.
You always find the coolest designs to stitch! I really love your cigar box and I hope I can stumble across one at some point because I'd certainly use it.
Wow, you have a whole lot of finishes! I too have cross-stitch fabrics of unknow origins that I use. I love Old Glory! I like the cigar box idea!
So many beautiful finishes, Catherine! The kitties are adorable and that cigar box is stunning--thank you for describing the inner box. The rulers as dividers is a wonderful idea. Hope you are having another amazing stitching week and staying warm. It's SO cold here in western PA, but things are looking up for the weekend. ♥
Your memories have been stitched into every beautiful work. :-)
Beautiful stitching! I love the idea of the magnets in the sewing box to hold the tools.
