Just a Bit Catawampus

I finished LHN Lady Liberty.

All I have to do is sew up the end but, I wanted to blog about it.  

Pictures are a little shadowy...sorry about that

I used some of the antique buttons I got earlier this year.  

Backed them with a little felt.  

When i sewed it together, my fabric got a little catawampus 

I am not claiming to be an expert finisher by any stretch of the imagination.  

The pattern called for DMC and Classic Colorworks

The only Classic colorworks I had was Blacksmith Blue.

I used some of the new floss from Victorian Motto Sampler Shoppe.

In order from the blue:  Dried Cinnamon, Faded Sampler Red (med), Custard Pudding, Dried Clover and Golden Chestnut.  

I still used DMC ecru and 950 for the little lady's skin.   

I must say Nancy's floss is very nice to work with!

Just a short post.

Hope your week has been good.

Mine has been very busy with family in from out of town and a few late nights

I did take a two hour nap this afternoon.  

I was just pooped. 

Have a wonderful weekend and a spectacular fourth.

Keep on Stitching.
