OUAT - February Block

This week has been a very rough week in my household with just a lot of stresses and hard things to deal with so my stitching has been limited. Though, I definitely have found stitching to be a soothing outlet during these difficult times.

Here is my progress on the February block of the Once Upon A Time Sampler going into this weekend:

I added two more flosses from Mo's collection into this block. The princess' hair is stitched in Coconut silk (my first time using silk thread!) and I also added Funny Raspberry in as well (most prominently seen in Smooch!). The theme of this block is Princess and the Frog, and obviously I haven't gotten to the frog this yet. I hope to make some more substantial progress this weekend so that I can be ready for the March block on the first.

I've updated my fabric stash collections for Hand Dyed Fabrics by Stephanie and Under The Sea Fabrics with a couple of months' worth of FOTM additions. Do I have more dyed fabric than I likely will ever use? Yes...but I love having the selection to pick from and each piece of fabric is it's own work of art!

Until next time!
