This is my second international F&S exchange in a row, this time from Australia. I was paired up with Pokua who stitched me this beautiful piece (in my favorite color). She stitched it in honor of Debbie Draper, who sadly passed away in early April.

Warning-- Post likely to case Square Envy --
I warned you.... here are the LOVELY squares Daniela T. did for me:
Do you see the Finnish flag she added to the Maryse house? I'm always going to think of this as my little cottage along a fjord.
Thanks, Daniela!!!!!!!!

Little pillow ornies
I was inspired by Daniela's post to do a little finishing over the weekend. The plan was to get all 4 of my squares converted into little pillows but I only managed to complete 3 of them.
I have one more to do and am determined to get it finished this coming weekend. Thanks, Daniela, for the kick in the pants inspiration!

Round 29 to Becca
Hi ladies - Becca asked me to post a picture of the squares I did for her for this round. She mentioned in her profile that she liked Americana themed items, which aren't as available in Canada as they are in the States. And I had bought a cute pattern from Threadwork Primitives (Nan Lewis) a few months back that I was just itching to stitch. The results are below. Becca wrote that she received them and loves them - and that makes me happy and very glad to be part of this group of wonderful stitchers.Linda

more finishes
This morning I felt a lot like sewing something. So I finished my remaining Fair & Square pieces into little pincushions.
Here is an updated picture of my Fair & Square basket. Soon I need to get a bigger one. The basket is the center piece of our dinner table and gets a lot of attention whenever we are having guest.
And these are the three pillows I made today:

My squares from Jill
I see needlebook written all over these darling squares. They're from Blackbird Designs' Stitchers Journey and my photography skills don't do them justice. Thanks, Jill, they're lovely!

Round 29 from Becca
I'm very late in posting the pix of my great squares from Becca. She saw from my profile that I love snowmen and just look what she did for me!!!! All that backstitching - you're my hero Becca as I HATE to backstitch. I just love the little guy and the row of his dancing nephews on the signature square too. Thank you so very much. I've decided to name him Ontario, what do you think?Linda
