Moonlight

Hello fellow stitchers! I hope you are all enjoying the Easter weekend and the gorgeous weather we are having here in the UK. As awful as it sounds I am hoping that is not going to be the shape of things to come for Summer as last year was way too hot for me! It is rather unusual for us to have such good weather at Easter!

I have been busy stitching as usual although some projects I am enjoying more than others! This next one was a bit of a pain but when you see my fabric choice I think you might understand why!

Yes I rather foolishly decided on navy fabric! I had seen a finish on the LHN/CCN Faceook group of it stitched on red fabric using black thread and I just loved how it looked so I decided on a dark fabric with the white thread. There are mistakes but I'm not sure where the first one is so the top border isn't aligned how it should be then the top large snowflake on the left isn't in the right place but never mind! This one has been in my stash for a long time and was passed onto me by my dear friend Barb :)

Another quick post today! It makes it easier for me just to post my finishes. It might mean there are times where I don't post for a while but at least I'm posting lol!

Thank you to those who took the time to read and leave me a comment on my last post :)

Until next time.

With much love,

Sew a Brown Bunny

Hello everybody! Is there anybody there? Yes I've been away way too long again. I have been stitching a lot to keep me sane and because it's what I like to do! I have been using Instagram a lot as it's so easy to do but I have to admit that I do miss blogging. So I figured that I'd try just posting when I finish something and see if that makes it easier for me to post. I miss not having a proper record of things I've stitched so today I set about trying to photograph all my finishes from when I last posted and save them all in folders on my PC like I used to do before. Unfortunately some of them were Christmas ornaments so I'll have top wait to do those!

So for today I'm showing my latest finish which I thoroughly enjoyed stitching.

So this year I am trying very hard to get my chart stash down whilst not adding too much to it lol! I did buy one Nashville release and had one bought for me plus I bought an older The Scarlett House chart called Samplers. I am waiting for my ONS to get a couple more Nashville releases back in ( it would seem that these two are very popular! ) and the good thing is I had the pennies from stash sales  and still have some so I don't feel so bad! I am also waiting for The Scarlett House In the Berry Beginning to be released as that is a must have. I am doing better every year and I must admit that I am just not seeing as much that I feel I have to have. 

That is all for now. Hopefully I'll see you again with my next finish soon! 

With much love from Sally xxxx
