Peter Comes Home!!!

It's been awhile, but Peter and Peep is framed and home! Cathy did an amazing job! I am so happy with the way it turned out!!!




The frame, itself, is just beautiful. I  love the detail. I already told Cathy that I wanted my Christmas Garden finished with this frame!!!




I'll be putting Peter away until next Spring, but I couldn't resist hanging it for just a little while. It's under With thy Needle and Thread's Springtime Social.


A post just wouldn't be complete without a picture of my latest Word Play. Here's May. Don't you just love the little bee hive flying the flag.






 Lest you think I've not been stitching since my last post, I've been busy stitching on CHS The Birds & The Bees and I've finished a very cute little little piece by Blackbird Designs called Summer Song. I dropped it and another design, Roses in July, An Adaptation of an antique by NeedleWorkPress off at Cathy's today. I hope to have pictues soon! Thank you, as always, for taking time to visit and for your wonderful comments.

  5. The frame is lovely and compliments your stitching beautifully.

    I too love the bells on the bottom of the Word Play pillow. These are a great collection of designs.

  7. You're right...Peter is beautifully framed. It came out great. Such a sweet, old fashioned looking piece. And you could be right about that frame being perfect for CG. Also love your Word Play. Reminds me that I am woefully behind in everything I would like to have stitched....sigh!

    Keep up the great work!

  11. You know Peter is my favorite by far!! He looks great hanging with Spring Social. I think I detect a "With Thy Needle" theme going on here! The fabric on your Word Play is splendid, to match the perfect finishing! I'm looking forward to seeing how your other pieces turn out!

  16. Peter and Peep looks fabulous! I would have hung it up right away. Do you change out your stitching displays seasonally? I love the Word Plays and May looks great. I can see changing those out monthly. I guess that I haven't done that much seasonal stitching. Ok, I think I need to work on that :)
    Happy Sunday!

  19. The frame you selected for your Peter and Peep is beautiful. I love the detail. Your Christmas Garden will look stunning in that same framing material. I love your May Word Play. I have all the patterns but have not stitched one yet. After seeing your May pillow I know which one I am going to stitch first. Have a great week!
