First Finish Of The Year & Brringo Update

YEAH! My first finish of the year and now I can mark my first WIP off the list!! I know it's not a big piece, but it was something that has been on the list since 2023. This is Dimension's "Laundry Day" and even though I love the piece, I didn't enjoy stitching it - especially the outlining. The lines were strange and certainly not the old style of backstitching. That's ok - now I know what I like and don't like when I'm buying a kit. Anyhow, without any more blabbing, here's my finish:

First finish of the year

Before - not a whole lot to go.

Live Simply was a kit that was on Herrschner's site for just a couple of bucks on sale. I had not stitched in years and this piece begged me to let it come home with the yarn that was in my cart. I listened and here it is, languishing in the WIP pile with all the others. It's a cute piece that I really need to put more time into. Just a few rotations and it would be finished. This is #1 for today's Brringo call. I haven't worked on it since that last Brringo in 2024. 


Here it stands after a bit over 2 hours of stitching:


Overall, it was a great stitching day!!!
