Tonight I got a start on Part 8 of Mystery IX, Le Potager du Roi (or The King's Vegetable Garden). This month we have to stitch the same artichoke garden on all four sides of the existing big garden. I did a good part of the first little garden. It was too much to do in one night. I have to long stitch the artichokes and leaves, then fill in the block.... then on to the next, then the next, then the next... I have been enjoying M9 so far, though!
Q. For those of you who use hand or over-dyed floss, how do you store it?
A. Simple, quick answer this week - floss-away bags!
Daylily: Tropical Love
Stitched on today: Mystery IX
How gorgeous is that! Beautiful stitching Carol :o)
ReplyDeleteIs will be beautifull for sure. Your MTM looks very good, I still have to do the other 3 corners, but that will happen probaly next week.
ReplyDeleteI survived my in-laws and did you survive your MIL?
Your Mystery Sampler is beautiful. I love the colors! I've always wanted to do one of these, but the mystery part scares me. Gorgeous lily, as always! I would love to see your garden in person!

Your MS is so pretty, as is your day lily. Do you have a day lily garden, or are they spread out?
ReplyDeleteYour Mystery IX is looking good. Your lilly is beautiful. Seeing all your flowers on your blog makes me keep a look out for ones around me. I keep wanting to see if I can find any that look like what you have.
ReplyDeleteMystery 9 is looking lovely Carol, I'm really enjoying the Day lilies
ReplyDeleteCarol, the mystery piece is coming along. Those colors work so well together.
ReplyDeleteYour daylilies are really beautiful Carol; I enjoy seeing your pictures. Your stitching is quite nice too of course!
ReplyDeleteYou have been busy as always :) EVERYTHING looks great, Carol :)
ReplyDeleteThis Mystery is slowly coming along!
ReplyDeleteThat mystery is *gorgeous*. Everytime I turn around, she has another stunning design in the works!
ReplyDeleteStunning mystery sampler (so far) - and your daylily is gorgeous. Fabulous colors in that daylily.
ReplyDeleteyou put everything in bags? Gesh Carol - you must have tons of them LOL : )
I put mine in a flannel lined picnic basket. Eventually, i bought a few metal rings for the Weeks & Sampler threads (ones with cards). Still I toss them into the basket.
