I work on her on Sundays, in the early afternoon, when the light is good. So, she went on my 2014 "to be stitched" list. Because I had so much going on last fall, I kitted and started Mary, but never quite got going on her. To be exact, I am doing Mary's Sampler II, which was stitched on black fabric.

My first little project is a very sweet little mystery sampler that was presented in nine parts last fall by Paulette Stewart of Plum Street Samplers, called Mary's Sampler. Without further ado, I will devote today's post to projects I'm working on with my online friends. I will share the others in a future post. I won't drag out this post with all of them, just a picture and blurb about the ones that I'm doing with friends. I currently have probably 12 projects that I'm actually working on. I am currently working on projects within each of these groups. I have so many stitching friends that I've made through the years.many online friends that I've never even met, friends in my guild, friends through the local needlework shop. It seems like a common "thread".no pun intended.with my different projects is that I've either started them with a group of friends, or am stitching along with a friend. The title of this post seemed appropriate. Even a few new stitches is progress, right? But, most days, I try to do a little something, which is better than nothing at all. It's not the perfect solution, I have lots of days where I am just too tired to pick up a needle, or even turn the pages of a book. I've tried working exclusively on one project at a time, but then I'm always wanting to work on something else, so this satisfies my need for variety. I always refer to it as my stitching attention deficit disorder. I am kind of back into my old rotation of a different project for each day of the week. I have SO many projects literally screaming for attention. I guess my personal life settled down enough last fall to where I was feeling a strong need to to get back to doing the things that make me happy, namely stitching, knitting, sewing, reading, etc. I will do another post with all the personal stuff. And, for much of the time, my stitching mojo all but vanished. So much has happened within my family during that time. We have a great selection of homemade cakes daily.Hello, friends! I'm so ashamed to see that it's been 15 + months since my last post. but with a difference… whenever possible using local produce and ingredients, teas coffees, not the cheapest but the best on the market! if we were to come by to your shop, what’s your best seller? a chef and his wife, who’s dream was to run a cafe. We also love the fact it’s so good for the environment, no plastic waste! if you could only have one teapigs tea for the rest of your life, which would you pick?Įveryday brew! We may love the variety but you can’t beat a builder’s brew on a morning. There is so much variety, and we love our tea shelf and all 19 (and counting) flavours it has to offer. The fact that it’s loose leaf tea in a teabag – so no mess, but still lots of flavour. It’s the best tea on the market! It’s more up market than your usual teas. We also host private events such as birthday parties, baby showers and christenings, along with lots of outside catering. Our focus has always been to provide high quality breakfasts, lunches and afternoon tea. Never Enough Thyme is a small independent cafe on the outskirts of Leeds. You’ve got 50 words to describe your business…go! The stand out shot was this one from Never Enough Thyme which features our cleanse tea alongside the tastiest looking pancake! Let's find out more about this cafe. We then pick who has tagged used #teapigsstockist with the best picture to find our stockist of the month! Last month's theme was ‘feel good February’ - the perfect time to showcase the teas from our feel-good range. Each month, we give our lovely stockists a different theme and ask them to send us photos of how they best show off our teas.
