You may not believe this, but I have multiple finishes this month! I had extra days off over American Thanksgiving and had an urge to do some organizing. Part of that involved going through the "drawer of shame finishes" to see what materials I had, what I wanted to get done, etc. And I managed to fully finish all of these!

I'm sure you're all surprised by the amount of finishes, although you'll notice most are smalls. But it's still nice to have them all finished, and possibly ready for gifts this year. Don't expect this kind of productivity again though. ;)
Stay well and Happy Stitching!

I love all your finishes, you have been busy. You must be feeling great to have all these lovely projects completed.
ReplyDeleteThank you, and yes, the drawer was definitely getting out of hand. As in, not closing well... I prepped some others, cut away extra fabric, etc. too and that helped also.
DeleteWow! You were busy this month and they all look wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThank you! It was all in one day, on Thanksgiving since I had the day off and we couldn't go anywhere.
DeleteLovely work on your Smalls this month. I really like Celtic Ice on that fabric.
ReplyDeleteThank you! It was included in the pack I bought from someone destashing. There is a larger project to do as well, and the fabric is there, so it might come out again.
DeleteYour finishes are all wonderful Tiffany!
ReplyDeleteYou have been so busy!
I love them all!
Hugs,

Thank you! I am a big fan of the simple finish, as it's plan to see.
DeleteWell, go you this month! It's amazing what can be done with a piece of felt and some some thread to make a little project look fab (and free it from the 'Drawer Of Finishes'! I especially like the use of DMC Variations to make the effective hanging loops. Might have to try that myself one day. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! And yes, I don't use the DMC variations for stitching often since the colour varies so much. They make lovely cord though.
DeleteTiff: So many sweet finish's, I love Santa's, I have a large collection.
ReplyDeleteYou have inspired me to get some finishing done.
Merry Christmas

Thank you and good luck with the finishing. I have a soft spot for Santas as well. Merry Christmas to you and your family as well!
DeleteCongrats on all your FFOs! I wish I could get the finishing bug and clean out some of my things.
ReplyDeleteWow, these all look great, and there are so many - well done!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful finishes! Congrats.
