Crazy Quilting Wednesday - Week 2

I've really enjoyed my stitching efforts this second week of stitching. I can't believe how easy my monochrome color scheme is. Since the color choices are limited, not a lot of time is spent deciding on thread colors to use. When I want a change, I stitch with a bit of silk ribbon.

I have about half the seams covered on the three socks. I'm hoping by next week all the seams will be covered and I'll have lots of silk ribbon done. I may even start adding a few beads next week. We'll see.

Do you see the little buttons that I added? I love those. I only added these three to see what they would look like but I will add more to the other socks this week.

Beautiful stitchery, Gail. It's fun to watch the progress of your projects through your blog.
Thanks for the heads-up on the Briggs and Little annual Nov. sale - I was unaware of that...and we all love a sale :) Do you use their Durasport yarn for socks?
