Still at it

I'm not doing very well.
Can't seem to  pick up another project, even though I am having a problem following this pattern.  Being monogamous is a tough habit to break.

This will make a great berry but I keep envisioning a heart too.  I seriously doubt I could do this twice.  


I adore Colour & Cotton generous skeins and the best variegation in my opinion.  But this one is shredding with just one or two picks.  And I've had a lot of picking to do. Maybe it's the dyes in this color.

Final finished the little reds, still have many more to do.

In that to-sew pile, came across another sweet little. 
 1840 miniature by The Scarlet Letter.

We got about a foot of snow, no ice, no power outages here.  Always something to be thankful for.  But I still hate winter.

Be safe!

I just love this pattern, and the color! Stay with it! Is it a Quaker design? They are a challenge as well.
Stay warm and well~

Absolutely adore your little red samplers.
You got much more snow than we did. I am with you on hating winter!

Your stitching will be great as a berry and as a heart. Such a pity that the thread is shredding after unpicking.
Hope you are save-- did see the terrible pictures of the lots of snow in your country.
Take care,Truus from Holland

I do love what you have done so far, and your reds are gorgeous! I don't remember that little one from the Scarlet Letter. Glad you are safe and did not lose power. Stay warm if you can - this bitter cold is just awful.

I'm really like your stitchery that could be a berry or heart. I'm lately drawn to berries. It looks great, keep going.

A shame about the shredding...it is so beautiful, and the colors are landing so wonderfully on the pattern. Don't you dare give up. Love the lil' reds too. For once I can say Whoa....you got way more snow than we did. What a strange feeling. Stay safe and warm my friend.
