Ta-da 2025 finish # 19

Ann Greanawalt on 40 count finished at 4x4.

Not like the 4x4 that took a chunk out of my arm.  My bracelets keep getting stuck in this ditch.

Also final finished George.



After almost 20 years, I had to get a new tablet.  iPads are too pricey for me, got another Galaxy and it's nice, but everything is green.  Every photo is fricking green requiring a full slide to the pink spectrum.  Nothing looks good.  I guess this old one will be used for pics.

Just another item to add to my crabby.  And the wool pressing mat I have that was highly recommended by quilters, stinks!  Tried various sprays and others, no luck.  As soon as the iron heats it, stink-o.

Enjoy your weekend.  Be safe!

Both of these pieces are gorgeous Marly! I'm tempted to do another small, but I need to focus on And All Was For An Appil. It's a large piece with lots of stitches still to go.

Beautiful finish, Marly! George looks fantastic as well.

Love these two littles. Ouch on the arm. I give up on color anywhere...what looks right on my phone doesn't on my ipad; what looks good on my ipad doesn't on my pc...and so it goes.

Really love how both of these turned out, Marly! Your smaller versions may even tempt me to stitch a sampler or two! Hope you've been enjoying this glorious, non-humid week! ♥

My wool pressing mat smelled also but is better now after use ..I love mine!

Both little samplers are beautiful Marly.
Didn't stitch for some weeks-- too busy and too tired with bad eyesight due to the new medicins,so I don't take these anymore. The app for this Wednesday I cancelled because it is very hot weather here in our country.
Take care, Truus from Holland

Greetings Marly: Love both pillows, congrats on the finishing.
Ouch your arm looks like it hurts, I have heard the wool mats do stink, I would never use one, ick, maybe wrapping a cotton cloth around it will help with the smell or maybe not.
