I’m stitching a bit today! Been trying to out run a cold for the past couple days but it caught up with me last night so I’m making friends with the couch and an audiobook.

Can’t wait to see what you make!

I’ve been working on seasonal projects recently (free Christmas kits) so I guess I’m working on a stitchalong theme finally.

It’s the same pattern as Linda…I’m off a stitch on one side somehow but I’m just going to fudge it.

I did a lot of fudging! No idea how I got off, but I either filled in with an extra flower petal, outline, etc. It is such a forgiving and cute pattern!

Looks great!

One down! Might try the black version too…but not today. I need to get off this couch!

So cute! What is the cloth you are using? It has a nice homespun feel that I really like…it looks like Aida cloth but with flecks?

Yep, that’s pretty much what it is lol. I bought it so long ago I’m not even sure. Looks like it’s “oatmeal” color…like this (Michael’s link).

I have this fabric as well, at least it looks very similar. I was given a full yard 15+ years ago and I’m still working through it lol. Mine is DMC brand linen aida (it’s actually mostly cotton but there is some linen in it).

Thanks, guys! It looks like they have it in my store! I have to pick up white, so I will buy it online (way cheaper!) and just pick it up tomorrow!

@Immaculata I think that oatmeal color is perfect for a lot of the Prairie Schooler patterns! I have some Christmas trees that will look nice on it!

I finished a little Halloween ornament!

This is “Fun Guy” from Satsuma Street, and although skulls aren’t my favourite motif, I have to admit I like how he turned out.

He fits right in with the others!

If anyone is into bookmark patterns, there’s a quite nice charity bundle going on thru December 1:

I’ve been working on a Miffy birth sampler. It’s honestly a bit boring, but with a limited amount of colours, at least it stitches up quite fast.

Ive been stitching on this for about a year. I like to have something small that can travel and keep me sitting in my seat at meetings and even church. My type of fidget toy.

I call it an embroidery doodle. Finished, mostly. I have to look at it awhile. What will it be? No one knows.

It looks like fine lace over fabric! Quite lovely…I especially like how some areas are more solid than others.

I haven’t actually done a stitching project per se, but I have done a lot of hand stitching on those orphan quilt pouches I have been making as well as embroidery on Christmas ornaments.

I have a few things lined up for the New Year and a few projects to finish in some way.

I love it @marionberries!

To all stitchers - I have decided to take a break from this stitchalong next year. If anyone would like to take it over from 2026, feel free! Alternatively, you all can just keep posting here!

Could you maybe remove “2025” from the title so we can go on here?

Thanks for hosting the Stitchalong all these years! I haven’t been participating as much as I would have liked to but I’ve always really liked the stitchalong.
