This is a fly-by post but I am happy to show you a few finishes!
One - Experience Leyland, from the book A Stitcher's Journey by Blackbird Designs. I have wanted to stitch this one for awhile - so "flowing".
Two - Love, by Birds of a Feather. Alternate title "Zombie Love" - don't these guys look kinda weird? Happy but weird, right? ;-)
Three - Summer Iris, by Blackbird Designs. Another Oh-so-Pretty design! I love it!
I finished these last two in three days. I was astonished. But then, I look around the house and I can see why - who needs to do housework?
Thank you for visiting and all your comments. They help me keep stitching and keep blogging! Take care and have a wonderful week!

Oh so so beautiful!!! You are always stitching things that I want to stitch. lol! As for housework -- ahem. We just won't mention that, will we? lol!
Oh, I do love me some BBD!! Lovely stitches!
they're all lovely! great job!
Pretty, pretty! Great finishes.
Hee to Zombie Love! It's sort of a 50's kind of couple, also. Love the flowing of the first BBD design, and yes, I totally agree. Who needs to do stinking housework anyway? Doesn't it do itself?
Beautiful finishes!
Your finishes are beautiful! The fabric that you chose really compliments the fibers. Your pieces just pop!! Don't you just hate how housework gets in the way of our creativity!!!!

So pretty, congrats on the finishes. All great designs too, some of my favs. CJ in OK ;-)
Wonderful finishes! Your needle was flying! We won't mention the housework. Considering the amount of stitching I got done this weekend, I'm amazed my place isn't more wrecked! lol
Beautiful finishes Melissa!
Great finishes - congrats!
Hi
Just found your blog.
Your finishes are beautiful.
Lovely cats too.
Happy stitching.
You've been stitching up a storm and all three finishes are gorgeous.
I have Experience Leyland on my want to do list also.

Three lovely finishes Melissa! You've got turbo needles these days!! Housework?!?!?! I'm trying to learn the art of turning a blind eye when it comes to a choice between that and some stitching!!!!!
Just gorgeous!
I love them all! Wonderful stitching!!
Woohoo!! Congratulations on the finishes! They are all in my 'to do' pile. They look great. You go girl!
Wow! You're really on a roll, Melissa!! They are all so pretty--even the "cute, but weird" zombie couple :) Seriously, I almost stitched that one myself...
I really like the "zig zag" bottom border on the first piece--resembles ric rak, doesn't it? And the colors of both the BBD pieces are wonderful...
Housework can wait--it certainly isn't going anywhere!! Enjoy your week!
Who needs to do housework indeed! I say that we need to stitch, not clean! LOL All three of your pieces look great and I do have to agree with you on the couple - they look kind of weird, but happy.
Pretty finishes!!!!!
Fabulous finishes, Melissa! I do love the BOAF couple - weird as they may be! I have all 4 in the series stitched - just need to frame them, or something. Love your BBD finishes, too!
Beautiful finishes, Melissa!
So exciting!!!!! All three are wonderful projects!! I know I have #3 in my stash and you have me all hepped up to get it out and go!!!
Have a great week!!!
I'm stitching the "Love" one also. I'm doing mine in DMC threads. They are a cute couple in an odd way - just like me and my husband - LOL! I hope to get mine finished soon and framed and on the wall!

You've been a busy bee Melissa! What lovely finishes! I think those zombies are cute and quirky!! I say to heck with housework!!!
Really wacky weather today...I will email you shortly...trying to get through loads of blogs!!!
Fabulous finishes Melissa! Your needles must be smoking!
Hmmmm, housework? Yeah, I'll get to it..... sooner or later!
Congrats on your beautiful finishes, I love them all!
Never mind the housework, if you feel creative then seize the moment.
Ooooh, the housework!!!!!!!!!!! Never mind, it will be there when you are ready stitching!

I so agree... stitching is so much more fun than housework! :) Your finishes are all beautiful! I never thought about the BOAF couple looking like zombies, but now that you mention it...
They are all so pretty (even the little zombie couple)! I love the colors.
The things you stitch will be around for a long time. Housework, on the other hand, is undone so quickly. I say stitching over housework. :)
Melissa, the finishes look FANTASTIC!!! :D
They are gorgeous, congratulations
