Still working away on the motif in the lower left corner :-) Someone asked last week how much more sampler there is to stitch.... well, this motif on the left will bring me to the bottom. What is left is all the empty space to the right - which is not so very much :-) Does anyone else love the Quaker Seasonal Set in the new issue of The Gift of Stitching as much as I do? I think I might coordinate to get the linen and called for silks for this set. The colors are amazing!

Love seeing your progress on this one. It is awesome Carol.
Oh, yeah, Carol, I LOVE the Quaker series from this month's TGOSM mag! I immediately printed the charts out and they are laying on my table, deciding which colors they want to be stitched in. ;)
Another week of great progress!
Love the Quakers, too. I MUST get a subscription to this mag!
PL is looking fantastic Carol.
Yes I love those Quaker seasonals in GOS and I have to do them one day!
Wow this piece is huge (and gorgeous)! You are making suck good progress though.
Those Quacker Sesonals were my favorite in this issue, a real must stitch.
PL is really coming along - you'll be finished before you know it!
I love the quaker set too!
PL is a beautiful piece. Well done on your goals, you stitched 11 gifts?! That's amazing!

The Quaker seasonals caught my eye right away! Oh, but there are so many other things to stitch right now...
Wow Carol I couldn't ever do all the stitching you manage in one month. Congrats on keeping with your April goals.
I too love the Quaker series from the magazine.

OH! I completely forgot to read my Gift of Stitching after I downloaded it so now I did and now I'm jumping on that Quaker seasonal bandwagon...and with my just arrived tax refund I just might be clicking over and ordering the kit for a treat... I bought Paradigm Lost after watching it grow in your SAL. Thanks for all the enabling - what a pro!
Oh yes I already have a project in mind for the Quaker Seasons :)
That magazine just gets better and better!
Great progress - not much more to go. The Quaker Seasons are great. You really did well to meet your goals this month - that was a lot you got done!
Love your progress on all your stitching! I love the Quaker series too!
Barnabee buzzed into my house so all is well. Thanks so much!
PL is looking beautiful, Carol.
Carol - you completely amaze me with everything you manage to get done. My hat goes off to you...
You are one busy lady! Wow all those goals! I never set one because i don't think i can accomplish them. I admire you =)
PL is looking wonderful, I really like the bird motif you are working on now. Congratulations on all you got done in April, you amaze me with what you accomplish.
