Poinsettia House by Littlehouse Needleworks28 count linen using recommended CC and DMC fibers
Stitched 12/31/09 - 1/15/09
To my shock, I have another finish to add to my 2010 list - Lady Scarlet's Secret Garden! I actually started this one over the summer when I was in Boston visiting my dad, but I only got as far as finishing the border. When I brought it home it just got set aside. I picked it up yesterday afternoon and got all the stitching finished by the time I went to bed last night. Today I picked up some beading needles while I was at JoAnns and got the beads added. This was my first time adding beads and I'm pleased with my results! This one is going straight to the top of the finishing pile!

In other news, the weather was finally nice enough to try out the new running shoes DH gave me for Christmas (we exchanged running shoes this year). They are NICE! I hope to get a lot of good use out of them this year and finally get the last of the baby weight off.
I hope you are having a beautiful and productive long weekend too! Thank you again for all your sweet comments. I really do appreciate them so much! Happy stitchy wishes to you all!

Beautiful finishes! Congrats!
Wonderful finished and stitching. You are very busy stitching and quilting. Great job. School probably starts soon and will slow down your good work.
So glad you managed to make the Clay Pot last, it looks gorgeous! The JN piece will make a great finish!
Congrats on the finishes! I haven't had a single finish this year yet... love Poinsettia House.
And why haven't you joined the StL Stitchers yet?!
Well lookie! TWO for one finishes in the New Year :)
GREAT! I love them both and you are inspiring me to get my own Poinsetta House out and started!
Beautiful stitching! Luv them both!
Wow! You have been busy, Kim--love them both, but that Poinsettia House is especially luscious. Thanks for the tip on being careful with the Clay Pot thread, too!
Hope your week is off to a great start :)
I love your pointsettia house. I love anything by LHN. I have stitched many and add to my list of must haves daily.take care,Kimberly
Kim, what beautiful stitching - congrats on two lovely finishes! Oh, I can't wait to run again - actually, I would even settle for a nice long walk at this point. My PT said I could walk a whole .25 miles if I felt up to it - very sad, but I must be thankful for progress!
Very pretty finish...love the colors in this one! Great job on both.
How pretty both of your finishes are, and congratulations on the beading! I'm looking forward to seeing your quilt.
Gorgeous finishes Kim!
Beautiful finish! Congratulations!
Ive been running again too - getting right back into it!
Beautiful finishes! I really need to get my Lady Scarlet out and stitch it up - so pretty!! And I am in desperate need of some new running/walking shoes - I'm jealous!
Congratulations on your two beautiful finishes. The JN is just gorgeous.
Two very pretty finishes. I absolutely love Poinsetta House.
