Hand Stitching Heaven

It looks like I have no end to my supply of hand stitching projects. 
Along with my final group of wool hexagons, I managed to set up all of the blocks for Sophie's Garden. 
I finally remembered to stop in at Colorz to pick up the wools ordered from Primitive Gatherings.
I'm really pleased at how these blocks are looking and can't wait to start stitching them. 

The yellow flowers here are actually a peachy coral. 

But before I dig in on Sophie's Garden, I need to finish up the binding on my February UFO.
Yes--almost finished with six days to go!!!!

  4. You are making me want to try a wool project! But I have more than plenty of projects I need to finish. Maybe I should be looking out for a good deal on wool for when the day comes.
