Here's a little project I completed stitching over the weekend. I used Monaco fabric and Weeks Dye Works floss.
Speaking of floss, have you noticed that WHITE DMC doesn't lay as well as colored flosses? I have. I've also noticed that specialty flosses stitch better. Hmm.

This blog is 'Seasons of My Mind' so I thought I'd host a 'Seasonal Exchange'. I'd like to exchange goodies with 4 partners, one partner for each season: Winter (December 2012), Spring (April 2013), Summer (August 2013), Fall (November 2013). You will only be chosen for one season if your name is drawn.
Guidelines: One handmade craft and $15 worth of items from the person's wish list and/or areas of interest. Shipping costs not included. International exchanges considered if you think postal mail is reliable to/from your area.
If you'd be interested in exchanging with me, please EMAIL ME
ruparanoid2 (at) yahoo (dot) com
Tell me if you want to exchange with me in a particular season or if you are open to any season.
I will draw one name for each season to choose who I exchange with and will email more information.
Deadline to be considered in this exchange will be
*You must be a follower here and have an active blog with a good exchange reputation. If you read here, you know I meet those guidelines ;-)

Hey Pars...sent you an email about the exchange and forwarded the info to five ladies from our last two exchanges. Hope you get a good turn out.
You can put me down for any season of your choice...any excuse to stitch and spend is good with me, LOL!
That sounds so great! We wish we were crafty!
I love those designs! I think I stitched the apple. Yours is so cute. I haven't noticed the difference in stitching with those threads. I will have to pay more attention now.
I will pass on the exchange. I never know when I'm coming or going so I wouldn't want to commit and then let someone down.
Have a lovely Monday and good luck on your exchange.
Best wishes Molly
Super cute doggie you stitched!! I find that too with the white DMC compared to hand dyed...not sure why that is though!! I would have to sit out on the exchanges...not sure what kind of time I have as I work so much!
Sounds very nice but I don't do crafts anymore.
Too cute! How are you doing? I haven't been around much and just wanted to touch base. Take care!
OOO I would love to take part!
Cool peanuts! Will email you xx
Great idea - I would love to Summer or Fall but I will email you.
hugs, Kaye
I have noticed those EXACT same things with white floss and specialty flosses. Glad to know I am not alone in those thoughts!
I would love to join the exchange. As a first timer I hope that won't be a problem. I will email and let me know.
