Today is a public holiday here and I have enjoyed the beautiful golden Autumn day.My long list of "jobs to do" is now all crossed off and I am looking forward to some stitching this evening.
Amy suggested she might like a "tour" after I posted a shot of my cabinet so here we go. I'll start at the front of the house and work through - so sorry Amy, but the cabinet will be last.
First up are two pieces that are in the HDHBEM's bedroom. This framed piece was done for Mother's Day many years ago. I well remember how hard it was to keep this a secret while stitching it.
Then I made this long runner (nearly 1.5metres) for the top of the large chest of drawers. It has faded a lot but to the HDHBEM it is precious and she will not part with it.
In around three weeks we are going for a short holiday and I am preparing my stitching already. Today I parceled up one stitched item to complete, edged the linen of another piece and sorted through the basket of "2012 projects" to find some others. After all, I will be gone five days and I will need a lot of stitching to keep me going for that time:-)
And so the sun sets on another day. Have a good evening everyone.

It's funny how when planning a trip, which needlework to take is top of the list:-)
I like this lovely post very much.
Thank you for sharing.

You have such wonderful stitching pieces in your house. If I go on a trip, I just take every stitching project I might want to work on with me:-)
