Sunday Stash Report, May 12, 2019

Sorry for all the fullness in this photo.  It really is not how it looks.  If you've sewn with linen you might understand better that it is hard to lay flat.  So the Knock Kneed is done...YIPPEE!

Winter-ific is coming along nicely too.  I have all the applique pieces that you see sewn into place.  There are a few satin stitches, chain stitches, and French knots yet, but this one too is nearly complete.

These two are my last 2018 UFOs to finish.  For this week I count Knock Kneed complete.  Hope that you had a great Mothers Day.  Mine was terrific spending time with Mom and then a barbecue of baby backs with a sauce my Sister gifted DH this past Christmas.  Yummy =^.^=

Used this week:  14.25 yards

Mom is coming to visit!  I've been getting ready for arrival.  My arms are waiting for embracing...  Oh, I love this time when I can spend with her.  Mom is usually here for Mother's Day which is awesome...  There are so many holidays that I miss being so far away.  Not this one =^.^=

Did you know that the top flowers for Mother's Day are Roses, Lilies, Orchids, Tulips, and Peonies?  Lilies are out of the picture for my home with the danger they present for Kosmo and Kassy.  I wonder about Peonies.  Going to have to check them out with dangers to pets.  Needless to say there will be flowers!

As for happenings in my sewing room; not so much.  I have all the flamingos done for Knock Kneed, so now it is decision time.  Should the black flamingo stay?  I think so!  Should my signature fabric go into this quilt instead of a flamingo that doesn't contain it?  I'm thinking so too.  That's what everyone expects.  I'll have time to get this together before Sunday Stash Report.  Anxious to change the numbers this week.

I'll be working during the weekend on Winter-ific.  Some hand sewing remains before I can call the last UFO of 2018 complete.

Have an enjoyable week.  =^.^=

I had hoped to get Knock Kneed finished, but other things occupied my time.  It is so close!  How do you like my surprise black flamingo?  They are a very rare occurrence!  Last sighting of one was in 2015 according to National Geographic.  I'm working on the ninth pink right facing flamingo in case the black one doesn't work out.  There is always the back!
