Spend yesterday working on Mary on the "over 1" alphabet and finished the 5th Etape. Must keep up with this sampler, in fact doing a SAL is very infectious, so Sarah Harris you will not be neglected from now on:))
Today I started the rice stitch but I am not quite sure if I keep the ecru in this pattern, it looks insignificant so far, the linen is so light.
Because it has been quite cold here today I thought it a good excuse for stitching and getting a "keister" (A Siobhan'ism) I scrunched the linen up a bit and was to lazy to get up to get the iron out :o)
My blog implies buttons, but so far I have never shown you very much of those so here are a few.
Mother of Pearl and Glass & others, in fact it looks a bit of a mess!!
Thanks for your comments on my last post, it's lovely to hear from you:))

Ooh, I love it! I swear I am going to sit down tomorrow and work on Mary and not stop till I'm caught up. Your progress looks great! Love the buttons, too.
I love your sampler - you're making such good progress.
And I love your buttons too! I have a scad of them, but still need to separate out the colors. Even bought little jars for them, but haven't gotten there yet.
This is a beautiful sampler! I love the effect and texture of the rice stitches ;-)
