A picture walk....

 
 
Greetings from North Carolina and welcome September..... I will be the first to admit that I am ready for Fall..... There are a lot of you out there who are too.... The days are shortening... the nights somewhat cooler... and, lots of stitching projects are in the making... I'd like to share a few finished creations that have come together in my craft room recently.

**************************

I have had requests for a larger zippered bag suitable for your 11" x 11" Q-Snaps... So, I am now offering a 16" x 24" XL bag at 35.00.... Just like my 12" x 15" size, this zippered bag has french seams and is fully lined with a zipper charm. Very roomy to hold larger items.....

 

X-L Carolina Stitcher 

Zippered project bag 16" x 24"

So, if you're a stitcher who keeps their stitch on Q-snaps and need a way to organize and transport your project, please email fayeriggsbee@gmail.com or Facebook message me~ 

September brings on stocking finishes, ornaments galore and a little stitching myself... As I close, I will share a completed project and an ongoing project as I continue dedicating 2017 to my year of Quaker stitching...

 

Threadwork Primitives

Quaker Bird Pinwheel

My dear friend and talented designer, Nan Lewis, has released several Pinwheel designs that are all capturing my heart.... I will be showing the next one, Quaker Clover Pinwheel, very soon.....

And, my big Quaker sampler, Sarah Tatum, has been progressing nicely... I began her Jan.2017 and its my goal to have her completed before years end.....

Thanks for sticking with me for this long blogpost.... 

Stay safe, smiling and stitching,....,

Faye

I enjoy seeing your finishing work as well as your own stitching. Such a lovely selection of items.

Faye, what a wonderful picture walk you shared! Your Quaker pieces look good. It doesn't look like there is much more to stitch on Sarah. How are you enjoying retirement now that school is back in session? Enjoy your day!

Lovely finishes! I don't usually stitch Halloween projects (I try to stick with fall so they can stay out longer) but I love Knock, knock!

KimM said...

Lovely - as always - you've inspired me to pick up my needle, dust it off, and start stitchin' again!!

Wonderful finishes!

As always, your finishes are beautiful and inspiring! Thank you for taking the time to share pics of them with us!

What a gorgeous grouping of finishes, Faye. I think it's high time I put down my tapestry needle for my sewing machine needle. I have several permaprojects that just need a little work to be finely fully finished. I've been inspired.

Maggee said...

It's never too long when you share your finished products and personal stitches with us! Gotta say, that 'man' bag was so cute!! But loved to see them all! You will be finished with the Quaker sampler well before end of the year. Thanks again for sharing with us! Hugs!

Carol said...

Happy Labor Day, Faye! Hope you are spending a relaxing day with needle and thread :)

Gorgeous finishes, as always, and I'm glad to see you still have time to stitch for yourself in between finishing for others...

Bekca said...

I'm so looking forward to autumn! Thank you for sharing your inspiring finishes :)

beautiful things Faye - I imagine you are a little sad about not starting school in Sept but maybe not (wink!) That little cat finish with the scissor pocket was too cute - lucky stitcher getting that piece home. your larger bags are nice - since I do canvas work too - I might think about that size. Love your Sarah - she's a beauty. As we pray for minimal damage from Irma - I will also pray she doesn't affect your area but heads out to sea. Hugs Mel
