Happy to say that my Chookshed Challenge is finished and I have enjoyed working on this one in April.
This is the Wild Strawberry Scissor Point Cover, kit by Sue Hawkins
While working on this at Quilt group I was offered another of Sue's kits by a lady who had purchased it but didn't feel up to making it. Of course I said Yes Please!
This could be one for next years Chookshed list!
Also finished this week are the Winwick Mum Trailblazer socks which I started back in April.
I think that is enough finishes for one week! I have of course been working on my Stitch Journal every day - here is my progress since my Easter post.
Happy stitching everyone.
Love the little scissor keep, the new kit looks interesting too.

Well done on the finishes and for completing your April Chookshed Challenge.... the strawberry set is lovely and a thimble keep will be a perfect addition to the set. And the socks look so cosy - another set to add to your fabulous blog header photo!!
ReplyDeleteYey, I finally got in! Love that kit with the scissors. The embroidery is gorgeous. I wish I was game enough to try knitting socks. You make so many beautiful things.
ReplyDeleteThe scissor cover is so cute. The socks are nice and I love the name of the yarn.
