Two RR finishes & update on Personalized Quaker....






I'm in a RR with some friends doing the Ackworth Friendship Book by With My Needle. Here are two RR's that I finished over the past week, the first one is Sandy's, the 2nd Terry's. I'm ahead at this point!! There is a first time for everything huh? ;-)

Here is an update on my Personalized Quaker as of January 19th (yes, it's VERY wrinkled!):

I haven't stitched on it in about 2 weeks. I'll pick it back up soon though. I started another RR that should have been done a couple of months ago. Luckily for me, I'm not the only one behind! ;-) Nancy, if you read this, your RR is "fixed". :-)
I'm really bummed that no one has the JN pattern (or kit) that I'm looking for. :-( I'm hoping to get lucky & find it sooner or later though. I just can't spend $40+ (ebay) on one chart at the moment. Maybe I should have bought a powerball ticket today! Darn.... too late now. Oh well... I'm still looking if anyone has a lead on the pattern!!
Hope you have a great rest of the week & happy stitching!!

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, Amy! Question: so in the Ackworth are you always stitching the same "page" in everyone's?

Congrats on being ahead --- savor it while you can. lol

Hi Ruth,
No, I'm not stitching the same page on everyone's. Those two are different, both are just "flowers". :-) I've also stitched the cover for Renee's.

I love how they both turned out, esp. mine. :D I love your progress on your Personalized Sampler too. Great work, you've been very busy. :D

Your personalized Quaker is looking gorgeous! I love the red you're using.

The friendship book RR you're working on is such a fantastic idea. It will make the finished piece so much more memorable than if everyone had just made it for themself.

Very Pretty Amy! Nice work. I'll try to keep my eye out on the JN you're looking for.

Beautiful Amy. You're making good progress on the Personalized Quaker piece. Hugs.

Great progress - which colour have you chosen to use for your Personalized Quaker? It looks very attractive.
