Back to Faith from The Cabochons Series by Susan Portra at my ANG Main Line Stitchers Chapter Stitch-in Saturday. Over the last 2 months I got working on our Santa canvas and so not much to report on this lately. Our Bring the Joy Santa designed by Marjorie Sarnat is done and heading to the framer. It looks great. The photo will be released by Fireside Stitchery on social media once it’s framed and then will hang in the store. In the meantime, I know 2 people have requested the threads and stitch guide and maybe a third. It was a chapter project discussed montly at our meetings over the past (almost) year! But, I digress.
I’ve been replacing French Knots with cross stitches or onlong cross stitches depending on the configuration. But, they didn’t work out so I laid a long length of Petite Very Velvet and couched it. The silver Fyre Werks is picking up the mint green from the Petite Very Velvet more in the photo than in person. Photographing needlework is really difficult.

The large side areas and beads/Cabochons are all that’s left to do on Faith. August 22 is the next ANG Main Line Stitchers Stitch-in.
