If you've been reluctant to try the 52/64 ct. unevenweave linen... give it a try. You won't be disappointed. If you can stitch on 40 ct. linen you can stitch on the higher count unevenweave linen. I had difficulty using the sewing method on the 45 ct. linen, my preferred method of stitching, but had no problems using the sewing method on the 52/64 ct. linen. Go ahead... you know you want to give it a try!!!

I was very happy to put the final stitches onto Summer at Hollyberry Farm this past week. A wonderful piece to add to my Americana collection of stitchery. Thanks Stacy Nash for your wonderful design!

I think my little man is dreaming of the perfect gift he'd like to receive from Santa this year. His throne chair is already decked out for the holidays!

Beautiful finishes! What determines which way to stitch on uneven?
Congratulations on your finishes! I've not seen the 50 count but hope to soon. One of our out of town guild members is bringing hers to show at our Christmas Luncheon. I'm really interested in seeing it in person. I've heard such good things about it (and the silks).
Beautiful stitches! Hope you and your little man are staying warm!
Owen looks so contemplative! Such a sweet face. His throne is perfect for him for the holidays. Love your finishes! Gosh darn it, now I wish I'd started Arabelle. lolol!
Lovely. All of it. Happy Thanksgiving to you and Owen.
Beautiful stitching.
Owen looks very contented with life!
Lovely finishes, Laurie. Arabella is beautiful, and the little basket of pine branches and berries in the Chessie and Me design is especially pretty!
Owen does look like he is dreaming!
Beautiful finishes Laurie! I have all those projects kitted up, now I just have to get them stitched.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Laurie, your finishes are stunningly beautiful!!!
Oh my, such lovely finishes. Congratualtions, they look gorgeous.
I have never stitched on unevenweave linen and I'm even not sure if I can get it here. But I'll have to check with Zweigart, maybe they produce it.
Your finishes are wonderful - congrats!
Happy Thanksgiving to you too. I never heard of the 52/64 but haven't graduated to 40 yet! It may be a while. Kiss the pup for me.
Congrats, your Arabella is beautiful, and I agree with all you say about that fabric, it's a gorgeous one, and so easy to stitch on!
Love all the stitching (as usual)! I wish I could do the 50 count but 40 is a push for me!
That's a lovely photo of Owen. He looks like he will recite poetry any moment! ;-)
Have a great Thanksgiving!
Gorgeous stitching Laurie. I just saw some of that fabric on Margaret's blog -- I need to get an order in with the Attic:) Love Arabelle. Owen looks so pensive -- great shot of him. Enjoy Thanksgiving!!
Owen does look like he is waiting for Santa ! OMGosh - LOVE the Summer at HB Farm - not to mention all the other beauties you finished. I missed commenting on the quilt review last post - WOW is all I can say - I can't believe it was a 3yr hiatus from quilting - time sure flies but you have returned with a vengeance - what gorgeous quilty projects. Hope you have a great turkey day ! Mel

I can't imagine stitching in such tiny count! Looks beautiful.
I love Summer on Hollyberry Farm. Congrats on wonderful finish.
You sweet furry friend is adorable!!!
Hi Laurie, I am happy to find your new blog and see all the wonderful projects you have been working on. The Arabella is so pretty, I could not imagine 52/64 ct, I am still working my way up to 40 ct and happy I am now comfortable with 36ct! I think some reader glasses will be in my future, lol!
Your quilting is beautiful. Love the block patterns you are working on and the Civil War table runner pattern is awesome! Such an interesting design and shape. Do you quilt by hand?
Have a wonderful weekend!
Arabella is just lovely, Laurie. Love the soft colors. I don't know about working on 52 count-I'd like to try some day though!
