Just look at these two lazy girls curled up on my bed. When they are worn out from chasing the beloved spitty ball, you can find them here. Ruby is on the left, and she looks none too happy to have her nap interrupted. That's Scarlett on the right.

Boy, am I glad to have these two finished. I've started A Friendship Sampler by Plum Street Samplers. Not enough progress to show yet, but it's very sweet. Believe it or not, I'm even enjoying the border. I'm fighting the urge to rummage through my stash for something else to work on, now that I'm a rotation stitcher, lol. I have found that it's nice to switch back and forth between a couple, so I may start Rebecca Robinson by The Scarlet Letter, or Do Unto Others by With Humble Heart. Decisions, decisions...

I had to check out the SL site for a photo of R. Robinson... woo... that is a very impressive sampler. Can't wait to see your progress snaps.
Both are stunning!!! LOVE those!! So much so I went online and found a copy of Traditional Samplers just so I can stitch Margaret S! And your pups are just too darn cute!!! :o))
Great finishes Tanya. Welcome to the club of the multi WIP's stitchers!! Love the dogs, you could use them as book ends - but don't tell them.
Both are gorgeous! I can't get over how much you get done :-). Can't wait to see what you start next.
Scarlett and Ruby are adorable!
You finished them both!!!! Just gorgeous!!! Ruby and Scarlett look like they are made to flank the pillows the way they lie there all curled up. If you did not know better you would think they are stuffed toys. Two real cuties. : )
