April Showers

The month is winding down and we are saying farewell to our April Stitch Along. I absolutely love that people took this wonderful pattern and made it their own. A big thanks again to Digital Misfit for drawing this up and a big sloppy kiss to everyone who participated!

This is my finished project. I decided to make the raindrops in different colors.

This is hiphomebody's piece. She says she is new to stitching but I think she's a natural!

I love that Little Red Emo Hood made an apron. How clever!

I love the braid! Just perfect SewingByStephanie!

Awesome Tinting by Terrildorr.

Wonderful tinting by Troublet42. The puddle is so perfect.

April Stitch Along... It Keeps Going

I can't believe what a wonderful response we have had to Digital Misfit's pattern. I love to see all the different ways everyone is interpreting the pattern. One thing is for sure, we are a talented bunch of stitchy goodness!

April Stitch Along...Going Along

It's week two of the April Stitch Along. I'm really excited about this pattern. There are so many things you can do with it. Here is my progress so far. I'm not worry with the black lines showing, once I get finished, the stabilizer will be washed away to reveal the picture.

I am SO excited to see what Katbaro has in store for her applique.

The Girl 83 is rocking the umbrella! Look at those stitches!

What are you doing with the pattern? Have you started yet?

April Showers Stitch Along

Everyone knows that April showers bring May flowers. What better way to celebrate spring and the rainy season for some than with this wonderful stitch along pattern from Digital Misfit.

 

I've decided to transfer my pattern using water soluble stabilizer. I simply traced the pattern onto the stabilizer and secured it with my hoop. I decided to start the middle to anchor the fabric and the stabilizer. After I am completely finished I wills wash away the stabilizer and have a wonderful piece of embroidery...I should probably stop here, before I get ahead of myself. 

I can't wait to see how everyone stitches up this wonderful Spring shower.

I saw this embroidery popping up on Hoop Up! pool a little while ago, so I was really excited to see that it is now available as a free pattern over on Digital Misfit's blog. I think it's perfect for getting into a little early Halloween mood because this guy looks like he's going to get up to some mischief!
