It's me, Tamie!

We had so much fun a few weeks ago when we asked you all to "Show us Your Floss" on our Flickr group that we HAD to try it again!

What the hey do you want a picture of, you ask? If you would be so kind as to show me what you are working on...anything at all that is a work in progress. So stop what you're embroidering right now, take shot of it and upload it to the Pimp Stitch Flickr Group (don't forget to comment with your link for an official entry) and next Friday, we'll announce the winner.

To clarify:

The picture is of my 4 year old cousin who I had just taught to embroider. This is her first time ever giving it a try, and she absolutely loves it! She is still working on her "Tea for Two" design but LOVES looking at the other patterns for sale. 20 pages of new designs would keep her (and me) busy for quite some time!!!! Ours (mine and hers) fingers are crossed =)

Erm. Mine's not actually a pimp stitch pattern, but it is very much of the same ethos..!

Here's part of my current project. I'm doing some fall leaves to go along with another Fall scene that I finished a few days ago. So glad to have your "adding fabric" tut as a reference! Love all your stuff!

I've got comments on it, since it's a true work in progress (as in, I'm currently ripping out stitches, so more emphasis on the work than on the progress part). I'd love some feedback!

Hello! Here is my current WIP:

Just wanted to play with some variegated floss, pretty simple but fun.

Here's my WIP: http://www.flickr.com/photos/98363482@N00/177165714/in/set-72157594266757593/

I started this about 18 months ago and put it aside. I actually have worked on it this weekend since I took this picture and made great progress - wining the Pimp Stitch would give me loads of ideas for some smaller stuff!

This is my current WIP. I just started stitching on a piece of flannel while at the airport. It will eventually be a wall-hanging souvenir from our vacation.

it looks a bit sad at the moment but soon well one day this will be a sampler of all the funky stitches I know all done in red work in this wonderful 1970s Scandinavian pattern ...but so far its just an outline in backstitch.
