REDnesday and Whatcha Working on Wednesday

Today I am doing a dual post here.

Sue at It's A Very Cherry World is hosting

REDnesday.

Since I am working on some REDS

I am also doing

Whatcha Working on Wednesday

with Leslie at

My Country Home.

Thank you Sue and Leslie for being our gracious hosts.

First up is something I got in the mail recently

from the Crafter's Choice Bookclub.

I had forgotten to decline the monthly choices.

Ended up with this book.

Decided it was a good book to have so I kept it.

It has some RED on it. That is why I included it here!

I have been doing sewing lately.

I currently have my sewing machine on the dining table.

I had needed it there when sewing large pieces of fabric when

I was trying to complete the Procrastinator's Challenge

last May.

That project is still not finished and the sewing machine is

still on the dining room table.

We don't use it to eat at much.

Anyway, the foot pedal is here.

Next to the table leg.

Do know how many times I put my foot on the

table leg and wonder how come the sewing machine won't go?

Too many to count.

Of course I could move the pedal.

But I haven't yet so I just laugh at myself

everytime I do that and move on.

Here is some RED I have posted before.

This is the picture I posted on the Stitch Along Blog

on Sunday. I started the two top leaves and did some of the shading

when I took this picture.

I have already done more since this picture was taken.

I will be posting the new update on the Stitch Along Blog

this coming Sunday.

Another RED.

The fruit salad I made for the Baby Shower at work

yesterday.

Yummy REDS.

Here is a peek at what I made for the

Baby Shower gift.

Part of the card.
On the pink gingham printed aida cloth.

A piece of the outfit.

Another peek.

This is how I finish my seams.

I will show the reveal of the gift and the card

on PINK Saturday.

I guess you will just have to come back and see!!

Seems I got forgetful and uploaded this picture twice.

Silly me.

I guess I will just leave it here

to give you another look.

I am also working on my third JOY block

of A Christmas Wish BOM.

I also finished the third MERRY block.

But have somehow lost the picture when the computer

froze up for a bit while I was composing this post.

I will have to share that another time.

The JOY one is on the RED block anyway which is good for

REDnesday!

RED floss.

These are the REDs I use for the Apple Bowl cross stitch.

This little notebook has some RED hearts on it

as well as other colors.

I started using it to keep track of baby outfits I still

need to make.

And to keep track of cross stitch cards

I still want to make.

That way I can figure out easier which one I need

to make next.

And while I am stitching and sewing

I drink some coffee out of this mug.

I also use my craft mug that I have

posted earlier.

But this one has RED for today.

Happy REDnesday!

and

Happy Whatcha Working on Wednesday!
