Countdown 'till Spring

Our area had another dusting of snow this morning, the third this week. 

The deer living around our house don't seem to mind,
but we're really looking forward to spring!

 In the meantime, here's Block 12 of Carriage House Samplings'

Spring at Hawk Run Hollow.

Thanks again to Carol Sims for stitching this so quickly... and perfectly!

Alphabet Blocks

Thanks to Isabelle Tasset from France for sharing her beautiful Alphabet Blocks, Whole Kit & Caboodle. She used DMC thread on a very old hand-woven linen cloth ...

 . . . two cotton threads over one linen thread, using half stitches.

Congratulations, Isabelle!

Get them while they last!
