As predicted, I finished my square for Leslie’s Lizzie*Kate Seasonal Samplers Round Robin today. If you can believe it, this was my first Lizzie*Kate pattern and I must say that I really enjoyed it.
I am quite happy with the way the overdyes turned out, though I can’t say that I am completely converted just yet. It was a bit of a challenge and took some active thinking on my part to remember to stitch one stitch at a time and I am not sure if I did it the “right” way, but the back looks neat so I don’t think Leslie will complain.
It feels really good to get this round robin piece done so far ahead of the post date as it will give me one less thing to stress about before I pack my things and fly back to the US.
Though I am still working on my replacement recipe exchange piece, I think I can get it finished this week and then I can stick both the exchange and the robin in one package to send to Christine… Hopefully no one will steal it this time!
And speaking of the recipe exchange, I got a cute little kitchen-themed wall-hanging made by Cari on Friday. She also included a recipe for Lime Pie and a fat-quarter of 32 count Pearled Barley from Lakeside Linens. I have to tell you, Lime Pie sure sounds good right now, but I will probably wait to make it until I get back to the US because I have never seen either pre-made graham cracker pie crust or graham crackers so I can make my own here.
I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend.
