Dwelling Place - Teresa Kogut (WIP)

 Today's WIP is Dwelling Place by Teresa Kogut.  

I am working on this sampler as part of the 250th bday SAL in the Stitching N Friends Discord event.  

The event started July 4, 2025 and runs until July 4, 2026 and is welcome to all.  You can stitch on anything (or multiple things) that are patriotic for the event. We meet and stitch in the group on the calendar days ending with a 5.  The 5th, 15th, and 25th. 

I've already completed the biscornu and two pillows from this book and I'm absolutely loving working on the sampler.

Fabric: 40 ct. Tych

Floss: called for mix of Classic Colorworks, Weeks Dye Works and DMC floss.

Stitch count is 284 x 318.

Cardinal Points - Long Dog (New Start)

 I've had the Cardinal Points pattern for awhile and decided to start it now that a few of my friends on the Stitching N Friends 22 Discord group decided to stitch on their Long Dog charts on any calendar day that ends with a 7.

Fabric: TBD, choosing between a 36 ct. linen or 18 ct. aida. I do have a really nice piece of 20 ct. Bellana too.  Hmm, decisions, decisions... I have 2 more days to choose.

Flosses:  I decided to splurge and get the Vikki Clayton silk pack for this.  I was going to have to purchase all of the called for Gentle Arts anyway, so I decided to try the silks instead.

(I saw a finished piece done in the silks, and that may have swayed me a bit.)
