Another PALs Christmas present today. Summer House Stitche Workes setup a booth at the retreat. I love her pieces. Mom picked out a few of the postcard series for me to do. Here is the first one in my pile...
Shouldn't be surprised Mom picked the beach one out right? I just LOVE how she finishes these on the burlap frames. Then you can attach whatever you want to it. I got several of the burlap frames and some trinkets to decorate them for Christmas too. I didn't get a lot of stitching time today so here is my progress...
I wish my fabric showed up better. It's a beautiful piece full of different colors. Looks like a sunrise to me. I just happened to have it in my stash. The thread is DMC 4025. I wish I would have had more time today. I look forward to finishing it off and playing with the trinkets to decorate it. Tomorrow is another PALs present.

I see the color on the fabric. So nice you modified the fabric and thread colors to your liking. Looking forward to its pretty finish:)
Wow you got a lot of stuff at the PALS Retreat! It looks like another great beachy piece!
Great design and progress Katie. I really like the floss color.

Very pretty start, I love the thread color you chose. Looks just like the ocean waves.
Cool design I love that you can add stuff to the frame I never thought of that
Another lovely seaside start! I look forward to seeing how you decorate the frame. That looks almost as much fun as stitching!
I can see the colors on the fabric as well and I think it's the perfect fabric for a beach project. It looks so great already with the blue color on that fabric.
Love the changes you made,looking forward to seeing it decorated.
You've chosen some really different pieces to stitch this year ie pieces that can actually be made into things rather than just framed. The colour you've chosen is fantastic, especially on the fabric. Looking forward to seeing you make this one up. :)
I love the finish on the sample picture, what a good idea. Your colours are beautiful, another great start!
The fabric looks great! Look forward to seeing more of this :)
It's looking great on the fabric!
The colour changes work so well. The fabric is lovely too. Great start
That's going to be really cute too! Like the way you reversed the colors of fabric and thread! Hugs!
I'll enjoy seeing how you finish this one off with the extra crafting needed.
I love castles. This one is adorable.

Another great choice.
What a lovely start! I look forward to seeing how you dress it up when the stitching is complete. :)
Love the thrad colour and the fabric! Great start!
What a great pattern choice and lovely start! You always come up with designs I've never seen before :) I can't wait to see more, it's so pretty!
Beautiful start! Nice choice of thread with that fabric, almost like the castle is silhouetted against the sunset.
