Here is the progress I've made on 'She Feeds Them Well'
I've loved every single stitch.
I've loved every single stitch.
I've changed some floss colors. The shirt is one of them, it was supposed to be stripped blue and a cream color, but I love the color brown and wear it often so I changed it.
Also... I'm having to stitch a new (for me) stitch called the 'tent stitch'. It's called for a couple of times in this pattern and I'm still not sure I'm doing it correct but it seems to look ok.
You can see in this photo I've used the 'tent stitch' in the n , d , h and o. It would probably be an easier stitch if I wasn't doing it on 40ct. It is seriously testing my eye sight. lol
Frog and Toad update..
I am slowly cutting out frogs and toads to be sewn.
I think I may be up to 24 finished ones now.
I may try to sew these little guys up tomorrow... that will give me 31. :)
Just for fun ~ Throw Back Thursday
I found this old photo from 18 years ago... me stitching. I still stitch in the same place (not that bed but in bed) and I still use that exact same hoop. LOL
Happy stitching! Where do you stitch at??

What a fun picture!!! The tent stitch looks great to me! Can't wait to see the quilt come together.
I think I have the Frog and Toad pattern too, I got all my squares done on it and then never finished sewing them together--someday i'll get back to them. I like that you changed the shirt color for something more you in that piece. (and i've been stitching for almost 20 years and have no idea what a tent stitch is!)
Lovely progress.

Super progress on your WIP, Amy! I like your brown top and your tent stitch looks good. What a neat picture! I tried stitching in bed, but it wasn't comfortable to me.
Enjoy your weekend!

Love the stitching and the quilt! Love the pic too -- lol! I stitch in bed too! And in my stitching chair. Depending on the time of day. :D
