  Thank you, although I can’t take credit for the View Master pouch. I saw it on another blog and just had to feature it!

I'm Lindsay. A midwest girl at heart, living in (and loving) Florida, learning to sew one magical project at a time. I consider myself an "advanced beginner" but I still have a lot to learn! Thanks for following along!

I haven’t been sewing a lot during quarantine (or furlough). Or crafting in general. Or reading. The concentration just isn’t there. I seem to be doing a little better with home projects... I cleaned up my back porch, revamped the shelving in a disastrous closet, cleaned up my garage, installed a new wall rack in the garage and started building some decorative shelves. I have sewn some masks (but not a ton) and also sewed a casserole carrier for my mom as a Mother’s Day gift. My sweet foster dog, Rylie, had surgery this week: she was spayed, had a number of mammary masses removed, microchipped and also had dental work. My poor little lab rat! She absolutely loathed the plastic cone, so I hit up Google last night while laying in bed, and went to sleep thinking about the soft cone I would sew for her first thing in the morning. It felt nice to have a new goal. And she seems to like this minky-lined version much better!

Apparently today is #AdoptAShelterPetDay which makes it the perfect time to introduce my new foster dog, Rylie! This incredibly sweet, 12-year-old beagle girl was turned into animal control by her owner for unknown reasons. 😢 She’s truly the sweetest quarantine/furlough (FURlough? LOL) companion! 💗💗💗 #fosterdog #adoptdontshop

Just realized I never closed the loop about my very first foster babies, Jazzy and Sasha, here on Instagram. After just two-and-a-half weeks with me back in February/March, they found the most wonderful forever family. They were adopted at just the right time, as my world at work started to tip into coronavirus-related insanity on the exact same day. Their new family loves them so much, and the girls are living the life of luxury - they have so much space to spread out and explore. My time with them was so special and I’m so glad that they were my very first foster dogs! 🐶💗🐶 #jazzyandsasha @jadamarjada

It’s #StitchPeopleSaturday and I haven’t shared in awhile! 💗 Today’s stitch is pretty special, because I didn’t stitch it, but it’s a stitch OF ME! 😱 💗 By now, you probably know that stitches are my go-to farewell gift for co-workers. I recently moved on to a new role at work after five years in my previous role, and my friend and co-worker Maureen stitched this portrait for me. I can’t put into words what it felt like to get a stitch person of myself! She included some of my very favorite things - hearts, a sewing machine, my prize-winning pumpkin and a Full House reference! 🐰 💗 And as an added bonus, I also received some other wonderful handmade gifts - a delightful shadowbox castle scene crafted with felt, buttons and ribbon from my friend and fearless leader Laurel, and a perfectly picturesque embroidered hoop - “Everything is figureoutable” - from my friend and co-worker Mallory. Needless to say, my new desk is not lacking crafty decor. 💗 I think Mallory put it best when she said something along the lines of - clearly, this is your brand! Yup, it sure is. I am so thankful for the time we spent together as a team and all the energy and love they put into these gifts. . . . #crossstitch #stitchpeople #embroidery #feltcraft

I’ve wanted to foster a dog for a long time... and finally made it happen. But I must be crazy, because as a first-time foster, I agreed to take on not only one, but two dogs. Meet Jazzy and Sasha, a bonded pair whose owner moved away and just left them behind. 😢 They’re both so incredibly sweet, and I’m crossing my fingers that I can help them find their fur-ever family. You can also follow them on Insta... @jazzyandsasha. 😂

Welp, I completely missed my last two #StitchPeopleSaturday posts. 🤦🏻‍♀️ So how about a late-night Sunday post instead? 🎃 This week, I’m bringing you Abbey! Abbey was an intern on my team at work a few years ago, and I made this portrait for her farewell gift. While she made lots of great contributions to our team, one thing she will always be remembered for is her prize-winning pumpkin! 🎃 For Halloween that year, Abbey took home the title of “Best Overall” in our department’s pumpkin contest with her “Bruce the Shark” pumpkin. 🦈🦈🦈 Abbey’s enthusiasm for the pumpkin contest that year is what got me interested in participating, too, and now I am a full blown pumpkin contest enthusiast. I owe my pumpkin contest obsession all to her! 🎃 After Halloween, Bruce kept us company in our office for at least a month (or two???) before he had to be tossed (RIP Bruce) and he was a great conversation piece! 😂 So of course, Bruce had to be included in her portrait - where his memory can live on forever! . . . #crossstitch #stitchpeople #findingnemo #brucetheshark

This week’s #StitchPeopleSaturday is brought to you by my dear friend, Stef! After expressing interest in learning to stitch, I showed her the ropes and she made an adorable portrait for her equally adorable boyfriend. It was so fun to see the progress photos she was texting me along the journey, and now, the finished project. Here’s the story, in Stef’s words! 👢 “I’ve always loved Lindsay’s stitch people, so I asked her to teach me how to do it myself! We spent a few nights catching up over wine and charcuterie and crafting, and slowly I picked up the art of #stitchpeople. This was my very first cross-stitch project, and starting with these little people was the perfect way to learn. I loved that I could put my own little creative twist on it!” 👢 “I love cowboy boots, denim jackets and wearing Mickey ears. He loves the Eagles (check out that tiny little Nike swoosh!) and wearing Santa hats. As you can see from the photo, this is us! 😊” . . . #crossstitch #stitchpeople @stefkienstra

Last night I decided to skip #StitchPeopleSaturday in exchange for another poll on my Instagram stories: would you rather see a stitch featuring a PUG or a SHARK? 🐶 The results are in and 74% demanded PUG! So, meet Addy and her sidekick pug, Zoey. This stitch portrait dates way back to the beginning of my stitch days a few years ago - I think it is the second or third one I ever did. 🐶 I’ve never met Addy, but my mom has worked with one of Addy’s moms for years, so I often hear stories about Addy’s adventures and how she’s doing. This stitch was one of the rare occasions where I stitched “just because” - there was no birthday, no farewell, no special celebration driving this one. I just felt inspired! 🐶 These days, for whatever reason, I rarely frame these portraits in hoops - I usually use picture frames. But looking at this one makes me think I should make more hoops. They’re so cute! 🐶 Fun fact: the polka dotted bow was unintentional. When I first glued the bow to the hoop, some of the glue leaked through the bow and made a spot. My elementary school art teacher would be proud of the way I turned the mistake into a “happy mistake” by adding glue dots all over to “fix” the mishap... LOL! 🐶 Another fun fact: this one was also featured in the “Finished Portrait Gallery” of the second edition Stitch People book! 🎉 . . . #StitchPeopleSaturday #stitchpeople #crossstitch #embroideryhoopart #embroideryhoops #pug #pugsofinstagram #puglife

Happy #StitchPeopleSaturday! 🐸 This week, I have frogs on my mind. Yes, frogs. You wanna know why? Because there was a FROG in my TOILET on Monday night. YES! I can't make this stuff up. It was a completely disturbing experience. But you know what is even more disturbing? The fact that it's apparently common. I've since talked to many friends who have also experienced frogs in toilets. How come nobody warned me about this? Ugh! 🐸 Anyway. Let's talk about the one and only frog I WILL happily welcome into my life... Kermit! Although I guess this story isn't really about Kermit. It's about my dear friend and former co-worker, Marissa! We worked together for a few years (although she's the type of person I feel like I've known forever) and I stitched this for her as a farewell gift when she left the company about a year ago. 🐸 Marissa is extremely talented and just an all-around wonderful person... which is exactly why she was presented with such an incredible opportunity not only outside the company, but outside the state! It's always sad to lose a beloved co-worker to another company, but a hundred times worse when they also move far away. I miss Marissa so much, but I know that she is doing great things, and I'm so proud of her! 🐸 Marissa is a devoted fan of The Muppets, which is why she is pictured with Kermit the Frog. I didn't have a pattern for Kermit so I just had to wing it. And honestly, I LOVE HIM. He might be my favorite cross-stitch sidekick of all time! Zoom in on his sweet little face. Look at his gangly legs. HE'S JUST SO PERFECT I CAN'T STAND IT AND I'M NOT CRYING, YOU'RE CRYING. 🐸 Miss you, Marissa! And thank you, Kermit, for giving frogs a good name this week. 🐸🐸🐸 . . . #stitchpeople #crossstitch #kermit #kermitthefrog #themuppets #muppets #jimhenson #disney #muppetsofinstagram
