A couple more motifs on Mary Thompson

I’ve been stitching away on an exchange gift this last week or so and unfortunately that means there has been a distinct lack of blog fodder. Lucky for me, I had been obsessively stitching on Mary Thompson before the exchange stitching began and so I present for your inspection yet again, Mary Thompson!

I’ve added the brown-y and pink leaf and the yellow and blue half medalions at the bottom of this scan.  I think the T is new too.

I went over to my friend Janine’s today to catch up with some very dear stitching friends.  As always the opportunity to spend money on stash was not ignored and I bought:

  • Cupid and Vixen (Christmas Eve Couriers) - Nora Corbett (Mirabilia)
  • Rose Garden Etui - Cherished Stitches
  • Rose Garden Tin Topper - Cherished Stitches
  • A Virtuous Huswif - Cherished Stitches
  • Harvey scissor fob and sheath - The Heart’s Content
  • Squirrel Scissor fob - The Heart’s Content
  • Cabbage Rose Scissor Fob - The Heart’s Content
  • 7 skeins of DMC (and I’ve come home to discover I need one more - poot!!)

Some truely yummy stash there.  It was great to catch up with everyone and hear all their news.

Till next time,  Fare thee well.

  6. Your sampler is coming along great, Cathy!!

  7. Mary’s looking gorgeous Cathy, great progress

  8. Fudgie, I have more here of the Squirrel Fob thingy. We should be putting more things on the site very soon. We got to see Cathy’s recent exchanges. We are all in love with the chook pin cushion and Cathy is very lucky to have got it home with her. Her Mary Thompson is looking absolutely fantastic. I have not progressed quite as far as her on mine. I don’t like mine as much as I didn’t have the correct silk. I am doing mine with Silk Mori and they are just horrible to stitch with. I will never do another project with them.

  9. Mary is looking great Cathy! Sounds like you got some fab goodies. xx

  10. Such a gorgeous piece Cathy! It’s looking fab!
