Bent Creek: Snappy Sampler

Vickie, blogging at 

A Stitcher's Story

offered this lovely Bent Creek

Snappy Sampler as a giveaway.

I began following her blog

when she had the Traveling Bunny Pattern.

Vickie sent the chart and snaps ... 

and these lovely pins:

Aren't they pretty???

As for the project ... I have a couple thread choices that I like.

The chart suggests WDW Onyx  - and I like this

particular fiber from ThreadWorks. [suggested fiber Maple Syrup GAST].

Then, I picked out a different ThreadWorks fiber.

I have two different choices.   Once I sort thru the linen stash,

I'm sure one color will look better than the other.

Do you like the needlecase?   with the rabbits?    My son gave me a House of Stitches GC at holiday time and I put it in a 'safe' place .... forgot about it.    I thought this needlecase from Lacis was special.   A beautiful gift that I probably wouldn't have bought for myself.    Thx DS.    Pretty on the desk --- so many styles at the LNS to choose from.   

And, speaking of DS - I need to iron his shirt for work.   Where does time fly to?   nearing 2am and the ironing isn't done.
