💌🧵 STITCH MAIL MONDAY: ROAD EDITION! 🚗✨

Y’all, I had a little kitting fun this weekend at Chandail Needlework and @howdyhoneyneedlepoint and I’ve got some pretties to share! A little bit of this, a little bit of that, and some lagniappe thrown in for good measure! 💁‍♀️

🐔 Thread Chicken from Kit & Caboodle — If ever there was a canvas made for me, this might be it! Considering my recent victory playing actual thread chicken, you KNOW I had to have this one. SO much fun to stitch!

🐰 Dream Time by Maja Lindberg, purchased from A Stitch in Time — Y’all, this bunny is too stinkin’ cute! Picked up some Fuzzy Stuff because obviously this little darling needs to be properly fluffy. We have standards around here!

🪡 Serial Hobbyist from Friend of Mine — Well, if that isn’t a personal attack disguised as a needlepoint canvas! 😂 I see a pillow in my future. Sometimes you just have to embrace who you are!

❤️ Love You Big Time from Fence Line Needlepoint — The name says it all! Sometimes sweet and simple is just what you need.

🌼 Garden Club Daisy from @morganjuliadesigns — Last but certainly not least, a little flower power! Who doesn’t need a happy little daisy? Pure sunshine on canvas!

Now, for something you’ll have to wait until next week to see! 👀

The fabulous Saira at Chandail helped me kit the top portion of my VERY FIRST needlepoint stocking! Y’all… BEADS! CRYSTALS! SHIMMERING THREADS! OH MY! ✨ She also helped with stitch selections, and I cannot WAIT to get started!

Did I remember to take pictures before leaving town? Of course not! 🤦‍♀️ So you’ll have to wait until next week for the big reveal. Consider this your sneak peek without the peek! 😂

And rumor has it Lycette might be on this week’s itinerary. 👀 No promises, but a girl does need to know where the good needlepoint shops are, doesn’t she? 💁‍♀️

Good threads, fun canvases, and a little something to look forward to. I’d call that a pretty good Stitch Mail Monday!

Starting this adorable Halloween canvas today. Had to kit it with the new neons… had to add a blue to the mix and will be color swapping a bit. Pic two is the background thread which hasn’t shipped yet. 🧵🪡💟#needlepointersofinstagram #needlecraft #lastitchclub #needleandthread #needlework taken in Los Angeles, California by @kitandcaboodleco

WIP Wednesday: NDLPT ADHD Edition 🪡

Four canvases. Four different stages of “WIP-iness.” Does this mean I have NDLPT ADHD? Possibly. But in my defense, they ALL have their own project bags, which means I can grab whichever one speaks to me at a moment’s notice. That’s not chaos. That’s organization with options.

And before anyone asks about my Arizona and Texas Bluebonnet Heart canvases currently residing in WIP purgatory… those don’t count. We’re not discussing them today. 😂

My main character at the moment is this Chicago beauty from Third Coast Stitches. I finally cracked the code on those vintage Chicago fire bricks, so she has my full attention—complete with arguably the cutest little Chicago Bean needle minder from Kit & Caboodle.

And speaking of Kit & Caboodle, Nick and his team have the BEST Chi-Town needle minders. But they’re definitely not a one-trick pony. Their collection is growing daily and goes way beyond Chicago-themed needle minders, so you seriously need to check them out. Cute is important, obviously, but that magnet better WORK. A cute needle minder that can’t hold on tight is just window dressing, and I have standards.

Then there’s my “Oh How She Loves to Be Home” canvas from August Design Works. She has a very specific job: Passenger Princess Needlepoint. 👑🚗 She’s 13 mesh, which makes it considerably easier to stab the correct hole while somebody else is doing 60 mph. Safety first, people. 😂

So yes, I have options. Yes, I have project bags. Yes, there are abandoned WIPs we are choosing not to acknowledge. And yes, I know exactly where all of them are.

That sounds suspiciously like a system to me.

And STAY TUNED for Finishing Friday because my second canvas EVER, the Blue Longhorn, is back from the framer—and she is absolutely FABULOUS. 💙🤘 She deserves a post all her own.
