I haven't had much stitching time with the big push, but I try and devote some time on Friday evenings and Sundays to my stitching. I've been spending a little bit of time with Mouline Rouge, but the differences aren't really picture worthy. However, I do have a couple that are.
Remember these from the Crazy January Challenge?

Well, check them out now..........
The first two weekends of March were devoted to Flower Urn by Homespun Elegance. Normally I have tons of time on Sundays and I would have been able to finish this piece in a day, but this has not been the case these last few weekends. Something always seems to get in the way. Still, I managed to finish this one. It is my first finish of the 2011 Crazy January Challenge!

| Flower Urn ~ Completed 3/18/11 |
Yesterday I decided to pick up Rose Garden by Blackbird Designs. I'm stitching it over one and I'm having a blast with it. I did all of this work (and then some) while I enjoyed the sunshine and the fresh spring air. I'm enjoying this piece so much that I plan on stitching it again as a remembrance piece in honor of my Grandmother Rose. I think it is the perfect way to honor her in my stitching. Especially since she's the one who started me on this journey in the first place.

I would have some exchange stitching to share with you, but Blogger and Picasa are not cooperating. I guess that will have to wait until another day.
Enjoy the Sunshine!
Happy Stitching!
