Some Little Finishes

I have been quiet but very busy stitching. My WIP's were starting to stress me out so figured I needed some quick finishes LOL. This is what I've been working on for the past several days....

















These are from the LK "Spring Crazy" chart. Each design is really small and will be finished in different ways. The "Bunny" and "Chick" will be done as eggs to hang on my April Seasonal Shelf. The "Egg" and "Carrot" will just get a backing and will hang on my Monthly Tree. The "Butterfly" will be a Knob Knocker and sent out as a RAK. The "Lilly" is going to be a No Sew Cube. I'm now stitching 3 of the designs together for another No Sew Cube but no picture of that until it gets to someone as a gift. I think as much fun as the stitching was going through my fabric and threads to pick colors for each one was even more fun. I have used lots of different overdyed threads none of which were called for on the chart.
Now for a smile here is a new picture of my sweet DGD Maddie.....





She finally is getting some hair LOL and just look at all those teeth.
Until Next Time....Happy Stitching

Your Grand put a smile on my face. Something I don't too much these days. She is a cutie. I love all your finishes. I've been trying to stitch, but things are getting more difficult for me. I fear for the worse.
