French Country House SAL

I am seriously considering joining this free online SAL from French designer Maryse. The progress pics of those who are working on it are very sweet! I like it as all one piece with the block lines in between. The reason I find this so appealing, other than the charming designs, is that it looks like sucvh a quick stitch every month. Just one little house. I think I could actually handle that! Here is the link to Maryse's blog with all the free charts and explanation. Anyone care to join me?

And here is a link to the babelfish translater page if you don't read French!

Berries Update!

Just finished this one off this afternoon, what a fun and quick stitch! I am tempted to buy some more of these chart packs. At first I was going to finish this as a pinkeep, but now I'm thinking I will get the rest of the fruit chart packs and frame them for my kitchen. They would really be cute done that way.

Berries by LHN

Last night I needed a BAP break, so I started Berries by Little House Needleworks. This is one of the threadpacks that I bought at my LNS sale on Superbowl sunday. I am using 1 thread on 32 ct. linen. I'm not sure what linen it is, something I pulled from my stash. But it feels stiff like a Wichelt. I am such a Lakeside junkie now, I don't really like the stiff linens as much anymore. Unless it is a band sampler on scroll rods or something.
