YOU HAVE TO START SOMEWHERE...

The FNSI, was the first chance I have had to take time, wind down, and play, in my new sewing room.


I started with this...

I thought it was a worthy occasion to celebrate.  It was the first stitch I had sewn in over 6 months and it was the maiden voyage in my new sewing room (it is worthy of a post all it's own!).  However, I worked on an "old project." 


It was not as productive, as I had hoped.  After sewing in my head all day but, needless to say I have an itch for more. I worked on sewing blocks together to make rows. It was a bit frustrating as I thought I knew where I had left off and had to rip out a few seams after realizing I was not putting it together correctly.

All my rows are complete and now I can assemble them together but, first I need to get the monogram that will go here.

I am thinking red will pop the berries in the holly, quite nicely.
