Friday Finish - Monza Purse

I'm happy to have finished this monza panel into a little purse. 

Work In Progress Wednesday

The Bellpull stitching is finished, but still needs to be finish finished into the actual bell pull. I've pulled out some backing fabric and plan to get this finished soon.

The stitching on the Monza piece is also finished and needs to be finish finished.

I stitched this freebie chart from the Blackberry Rabbit over the course of the past week and it is ready to be finished into something. The chart can be found here - https://www.instagram.com/p/B-BmPhUHYxK/.

This blackwork piece is not charted in the directions.  That was fine for the blackwork part.  Now I am trying to do the border and the written directions do not fit correctly. I've tried several different ways and taken it out again and again.  I think I will have to draw it out on graph paper or make up a new border.

I worked on this afghan one evening. I would like to finish it, but I don't much like working on it.

The butterfly pin is almost finished, but not quite yet.

And, I started a new canvas project, a Ruth Dilts Design called "Quiltwork".

It's been a good week for stitching.

Work In Progress Wednesday

I'm making good progress on the rose bell pull.

I'm making progress on the blackwork sampler, too.

I pulled out the Coming Home afghan and worked on it one full evening.

I'm finished with couching the sparkly thread on the butterfly.  Next step is to attatch beads.

These are some of the parts of my stumpwork garden.

When I was looking for something else, I came across this piece of fabric in a bag with a label that says Monza 11 x 11. I'm not familiar with Monza, but it is an evenweave fabric. 

Eleven inches square is not a large piece, so I started something new, using some threads that I bought without a purpose in mind.
