I have been a stitching fool I tell ya! This is what I've accomplished so far this year:
Hands to Work Pinkeep Pillow byStacy Nash Primitives
fabric: 28ct Irish Linen
fibers: DMC
I'm planning on stitching SN's Early Style Alphabet Pillow and Seek Joy in All Things Pinkeep patterns. And then framing all three to hang as a group on the wall.
Pinkeep Janvier freebie byMaryse found here
fabric: 32ct lambswool linen
fibers: DMC
I left the backstitching off the windows and doors. I may go back and add it, but then again, maybe not.
Quaker Scissors Pinkeep byWith My Needle
JCS 2006
fabric: 32ct cream belfast linen
fibers: DMC 115 and Carrie's Creation in Gator Green
These are the kids' 2009 Christmas ornies. I've stitched their first name initial in green (thank you Heather for the thread, it was perfect!) Maybe I'll have time to get them *finish* finished before Dec 25th???Well, now I need to become a finishing fool :)

Great job. Please post them when you finish them. I can't wait to see how nice they will be then. Keep on stitching you "fool".
Wonderful stitching !!
happy New Year & beautiful work!
I love the Hands to Work piece. That has always been one of my favorite sayings.
Great finishes, cant wait to see how they are completed.
Gosh, you've been busy - love all your finishes!
wow, that is quite the accomplishment. Good for you.
Wow, everything looks fabulous! Congratulations Staci!
Holy smokes, Staci, that's a lot of stitching!
Love the sampler ornaments for the kids...clever idea with the initials!
Wow Staci! Everything is so beautiful! The Stacy Nash grouping will be amazing, and I love how you stitched your kids' initials in green on the ornaments. I'm doing the Pinkeep SAL too! I just pulled my threads today. Can't wait to see your finishes on these.
You really have been busy! These pieces are beautiful.
You have many wonderful finishes in this post! Congratulations! Yours is the first finish I have seen of Maryse's Janvier pinkeep and it is beautiful!
WOW! You're on fire!
I love that one by Stacy - it's on my todo list that never ends. LOL Your stitching is always such a treat to see.

They all look great! Can't wait to see them finished.
Wow you have been busy Staci!
Love your Stacy Nash piece and the Maryse pinkeep. A great way of personalising the kids ornies - can't wait to see them finished. I have personalised a lot of samplers by stitching the C and R in a different colour too!
OH MY GOSH! You have done ALL of this in 4 days!!??!! I feel like such a slacker! Love all your work...they look great. Can't wait to see them finished.
We should call you Smoking Needles Staci, lol
Everything is fabulous.
woo hoo! you go girl :) I adore the Stacy Nash idea! The ornaments for your kids are perfect! Mind if I steal your idea? Would make fun ornaments for friends :)
Ohhhh and I love you red scissors!!!
Look at you go girl!! You have some majorly smokin' needles!! I love everything and yes ma'am, you will have your ornies finished in time for Christmas next year. Knowing you, you'll have them finished by the end of the week! LOL
Everything is great! Keep up the great work. You are such an inspiration to me. BTW, I bougth knitting needles and thread yesterday. See what you've started??? LOL
Hugs,

Lots of wonderful stitches there.
Happy New Year!
Whoa! I don't think busy quite describes it. Amazing how much you've accomplished, and each project is great.
All your pieces are spectacular! That Stacy Nash is so sweet and your idea behind the green initials is perfect. Where did you ever get those nifty black scissors accompanying the SN piece?
You've accomplished so much! I can't wait to see more.
Wow, you are SO fast! All your works looks very beautiful, especially I like "Hands to Work".
Can't wait to see them finished :)
Wow Staci, you're stitching up a storm. So many finishes already! I have fallen in love with Stacy Nash's designs lately. The more I see them stitched the more I feel the urge to buy some of them.
I love the pictures of the mountains in your sidebar. Are they from where you live?
Wow you have been busy Staci! I love all your finishes but especially the January pinkeep. I've just been and downloaded that one.
Beautiful stitching! And I'm very impressed how much you accomplished in only a few days! :)
My goodness! You have been busy! Everything is beautiful!
Wow! That lot would take me about 4 months! ;) It's all lovely and I really like the idea of the initial in a different colour too.
How lovely! And a lot of work to do too.
Happy New Year and thanks for being a part of your stitchy list.
Hugs
Great stitching Staci! Congrats on a great start to 2009!
Woo, Staci, you're amazing!! I especially love the Hands to Work. You make me wanna get busy.
Oh my you have got a lot done! Holidays really put a halt on my stitching but that is now over and Im picking up the pace again. Lovely work
~*CAndi*~
Goodness! Did you ever accomplish a lot : ) Awesome projects
Everything is gorgeous, I especially love the Stacy Nash piece!
Staci I just found your blog and have really enjoyed looking at all your beautiful stitching. Seems like we have some things in common. I love stitching and love knitting socks too. As for your home in Colorado my son and his family live in Boulder and I visit several times a year (from Rochester, NY). Magnificent scenery out there.
Lovely. I am almost jealous that you do so much :)
And your blog looks like one big present! Love it. Perfect for this time of the year.
Beautiful finishes Staci!! Happy New Year! :)
Beautiful pieces!! Good work Staci:)
Staci, I just LOVE your blog. I stumbled on it from someone else's and now I can't remember who's but I have read it from beginning to end and your stitching has inspired me! You are so funny/comical and I've really enjoyed reading.
I do have one question...where did you get the deer ornie pattern with the scrolly antlers? I found the other 2 but can't find this one. I'd love to stitch this one for DH. Thanks and please keep the posts coming; they are wonderful.

I just love the Hands to Work Pinkeep Pillow and your plans for it. Very nice. And the ornaments are too cute. What a neat idea to put their initial in each one.
