The Donkey is Happy Dancing....

I am very happy to report that last Monday (and a little bit of Tuesday evening) saw me finish my Democratic Donkey.  Yay!  The donkey and I have been happy dancing around the house......

Thank you so much, Sarah, I have loved stitching this design.  Next Monday will see me start on the Republican Elephant.  What fun!

Democratic Donkey Update...

My focus Americana piece for now is the Democratic Donkey one of the Party Tarts by Plum Street Samplers, part of their Jack's Sweet Shoppe Series.

This was gifted to me by the gorgeous Sarah (from Sarah in Stitches) when we caught up on my recent stay in Dubai.  Thank you again, Sarah.

So, as you can see - a heap of progress has been made - this is such a lovely project to stitch.  BTW, the top pic is the truer colours of the piece - isn't it funny how much effect lighting can have on your photos?

This is where I was up to before I started stitching last evening ....

... and, as you can see, quite a lot of progress was made!

I would love it if you would like to join me for some Americana stitching - it can be a WIP or UFO or a brand new project - you choose.
