Monday Inspiration and Weekend Stitching

"The art of being happy lies in the power of extracting happiness from common things."

~ Henry Ward Beecher


This weekend I spent quite a bit of time stitching. In the afternoons I was finishing up a model for a new design that I hope to have up for sale at my website this week, but in the evenings I was working on these cute designs from Plum Pudding Needleart's Bits of Blue. I'm making extras to have on hand to use as small gifts throughout the year. There's also a larger sampler and a small design (but larger than these two) where you can add a person's name. It's been fun stitching in just the one color and the designs are working up quickly.

I'll have a busy week as I plan to stitch two more models, which I also hope to have available for sale by the end of the month.

These designs are very cute. I love blue. I am changing colors so many times, I think I will be color blind on my Warrior.
Have a good day.

Very cute! Makes me want to stitch instead of working!
