Since Saint Patrick's Day is not far off, I thought I would stitch something to celebrate the day. I've never stitched anything for it before but since I already had this kit, I figured I might as well make use of it and decrease my stash :o) This is Irish Luck by Just Another Button Company -
The pattern originally called for 32 count Sienna Natural linen but my kit already contained this 28 count green moulted linen. I have no idea what color it is and I've never seen it before so unfortunately I can't answer that question if you ask it. LOL!
I plan on making this into either a tuck pillow or pinkeep but I have no Saint Patrick's Day fabric in my stash! Hard to believe ;o) LOL! Knowing me, it will just go into my tote that holds all my finishes. Sigh!
Is there anyone else stitching something for Saint Patrick's Day?
DH just came home with the most wonderful package! I received my pin cushion from Patty, among other goodies -
I couldn't believe the weight of it! Is it stuffed with walnut shells? The rose pins and zipper pull are adorable :o) I love the little metal tags and the skein of floss (Valentine) by Nina is incredible! Thank you so much Patty! You put a smile in an otherwise dreary weekend ;o)

A lovely parcel received. Your finish is gorgeous.
How cute is your St. Paddy's Day finish! I love it!! I haven't go around to decorating my mantel yet. What fun getting your package of goodies in the mail... Enjoy :^)
The whole pot of luck! Great idea :)
And congratulations with the parcel from Patty!
Best wishes,
Tatyana
Super cute!!!
I'm not stitching anything for St. Patty's but I sure will be cooking up a big corned beef brisket as usual. YUM.
(I have, of course, made my fair share of glass Leprachauns and Pots O' Gold.)
Cute finish!! I think it would be a sweet pinkeep :)
Congrats on the win, such fun goodies!
I have a friend who is VERY proud of her Irish heritage. I made an ornament for her for St Patrick Day. I sent it, along with a box of St. P goodies to her in mid-Feb so she would be ready when March rolled around.
Now, I need to make one for myself . I really liked it AND it was free :0}
Love the St. Patrick's finish. I like the mystery green fabric, too. It's a really good color.
I love Tis Red, too. Lucky you. :)
Cute finish. I like the little buttons.
And what fun to receive a gift like that!
What a cute finish Cathey!
Lovely package of goodies from Patty.
Darling finish, Cathey! I've only stitched one St. Patrick's Day finish myself and three years later it is still sitting in the drawer waiting to be made into something. Don't let that happen to yours :)
Pretty pin pillow from Patty and Nina's threads really are wonderful, aren't they? Hope your dreary weekend improves...
What a lovely gift you received. I love your St. Patrick's finish, very cute. With all the cotton fabric stash I have I don't have any St. Patrick's fabric either.
Cute pot of gold ! Love the pincushion.
Nice finish! I "should" stitch something for St Patrick's Day, but I have already so many things to stitch/sew/etc... and times flies so quickly! :P Hope I'll be able to stitch at leat a little something though...
Great package Patty sent you! :))
A very cute finish, Cathey! I don't think I've ever stitched for St. Patrick's Day but there are loads of cute designs for it.
Oooo, I have one of those pin pillows from Patty. Mine's in green. Aren't they wonderful? Lovely goodies included too!
What a cute pot of luck you have!
Very cute finish & cool gifts :) Love your blog background.
I'm glad you like the goodies - And yes the pin cushion is filled with walnut shells
Enjoy :)
I have no ideia what St. Patrick's day is about but I do know it has a lot of green and shamrocks! LOL
Pretty stitching :) 'create your own luck' = I like that :D
I hope your Sunday is going better =) Sweet hug to you
Very cute finish! I love it.
What a nice surprise!
What a great package! Love your St. Pat's finish too... hope to get a least one St. Patrick's design stitched. It is my hubby's favorite holiday!
