The latest start is Coffee Quaker by Heartstring Samplery, that very popular design released in Nashville this spring. I have chosen to stitch it on 32 ct. Vintage Country Mocha linen with the called for fibers in the chart, plus I pulled WDW Jay Bird (blue) from my stash. I don't know where I'll be adding the blue, but I think it just needs a little bit of blue! :D
So far this morning I got this much done:
I'm really going to enjoy this one!
The roses are starting to burst with blooms. Here's a few pics taken this morning.
This is the time of year when I feel like all the work I've done is worthwhile.
The big birthday celebration for all my kids is this Saturday afternoon, so I have lots to do to get ready for everyone. The garden is looking good, now to get the menu finalized!
Happy stitching everyone!

The new project looks great so far. I love the look of 32 count linen.
A pretty new start! And your roses are looking lovely--sure wish we could grow them, but the two bushes that we "try" to grow just keep getting eaten by the deer!
Do you celebrate all of your kids birthdays at once? What a brilliant idea!
Coffee Quaker is looking great. So is your yard for the party. Enjoy!! Happy Birthday everyone!
I look forward to seeing your progress on the Coffee Quaker especially where you will be using the blue thread.
Can't wait to see more of your Coffee Quaker, it will look great with some blue in it.
Your Roses are beautiful!
Have fun planning the party.

More of my favourite fabric! I love this design too. Do you have the matching mug?
Coffee Quaker is a great new start. And I'm sure you will manage to squeeze the blue in somewhere, lol.
So great, your roses, Von.
Lovely!!
I love to see your rose blooms each year.
