The second finish is a design by Cross eyed Cricket called Down to the Sea. It is stitched on 32ct Lamb's Wool. This took some time to stitch up because of my own issues with boredom. All that WHITE! and then the 5 sailors pants were all the same, just blue then white, then Blah Blah Blah. I do like the way it turned out but I am happy to have this as a finish and out of the way.
The weather here has been a bit crazy. We had 6 inches of snow on Saturday. Tuesday reached 60 degrees and I had the car windows down, and today flurries, sleet, and then rain, rain, rain. The temps are supposed to go up again. Well back to my stitching chair now that the kids are in bed. I hope you have all had a good week and as always, Happy Stitching!

Poinsettia House looks real nice. So does Down by the Sea. I can see how that much white would be a little boring.
Love the package your new piece came in, can't wait to see it all stitched up.
Have a nice peacefu evening.

I have never seen the Cross eyed Cricket pattern Down to the Sea. I would love this one for my home by the sea.
love Poinsettia House .. lovely finishes!
Very nice finishes! Love the Feb project!
Very nice finishes. I can understand how bored you were stitching all that white. I can never get my 'white' stitches to look nice and uniformed no matter how I try.
The weather here (45 mins south of you) is the same. Gloomy, rainy, and mild. We had 8" of snow last Sat and 60 degrees on Tues. No wonder many people are sick with colds and sinus problems! Such weird winter weather for New England!
Oh my goodness! What a fabulous post! Your January small finish is GORGEOUS!!!!! Glad we picked a February design that you already liked! AND your Cricket Collection finish is amazing and so darn cool!!!! I love it! I have never seen that chart before. I mean it, that is one amazing finish!!!
Have a happy stitching weekend!!!!
Beautiful Poinsettia House finish, Nataly. Sailors look so cute. Definitely worth all the boring stitching. :)
Down to the Sea is so cute!
Love the new finishes!!!! :)
Pretty new finishes, Nataly! I'm glad you persevered with stitching all that white on Down By the Sea because the end result is wonderful :)
Lovely finishes Nataly! I hear you in regards to all the white. Sometimes I'm turned off of a certain design because of all the white in it.
I just pullled the same Citrouille design from my stash yesterday as a possible stitch for Valentine Day. I'm just not sure I'll get to it in time.
beautiful stitches
Lovely finishes. Your Poinsettia House is so pretty.
Love how your next SAl design is packaged. I wouldn't want to open it!
Congrats on your finishes, both very pretty! :)
Great stitching
