Today's new start "Floral Fifteen" by Just Nan.
I was gathering all the threads (DMC) for this project and discovered I didn't have one color. URG!!!
Off to Joann's I went. I get there and go all the way back to where they have the threads. I thought okay grab the one thread and leave. The bin for #603 was empty. oh no!! Of course I picked up some items on my way out, lol! Then I headed off to Wallmart. They had only 2 skeins left - YES! I got them both. Well I did finish kitting up this project. Then I got to stitching the border which is the light green color. I kept making mistakes and had to frog. It wasn't matching. Off to church services in the early evening. It was a special service in remembrance for Nannie and it was also a teen mass! The teenagers got to give the readings, help with communion too, very special. The church was still decorated for Christmas - beautiful. It turned out this was the last Sunday for Christmas so they left all the decor up. Came home and got right back to stitching. I only needed to frog 2 more times then got it right. Whew!!!

love the colours that is a very pretty motif
How fummy, I was in NY and had to go into michaels to get one dmc for a project. So glad they had the color. The piece you are working on is so pretty.
Ah, this is looking so great, Annette. I have seen this project so many times on blogs but rarely ever finished. I'm so looking forward to seeingyour progress on it.
So pretty! You got a lot accomplished.
You are fortunate your Walmart carries DMC. Ours does not.
Another fascinating design. Can't wait to see your finish!
It's looking very pretty!:)
That is a pretty motif. You got a lot stitched yesterday considering all the other things you also did.
Very pretty motif Annette! The Just Nan mullti-sided biscornu is so beautiful and one I've admired for some time now. Lovely to hear about a service dedicated to Nannie. She was a special lady indeed for the church to dedicate a service to her! Hugs to you...ps...love all of your starts so far!!
Gorgeous start Annette. What a pretty design.

Love this one and the leaf ball, too! They are both in my stash.
I'm doing a 15 sided biscornu SAL with my EGA group this year.
You are making great progress
Oh fun fun! Another Just Nan! So much fun to see what you've chosen -- this one is beautiful!
This is so pretty. Well done

Oh wow! I love this design SO much. I am excited to see your progress on it. xx
Such a pretty design! One October I ran out of black. Off to Jo Ann's and no black floss to be had!! Very frustrating.
LOVE Just Nan! Happy you stayed with it! Looks gorgeous!
That Just Nan is going to be a fantastic piece!!!
