August Update

I have a lot of finishes to show!

First up: Red by Mirabilia. She is on pearl gray belfast. I love the way she turned out, and I will be taking her to my framer this week.



Next up: Sweet Pea by Nora Corbett. She is on PTP Meditation cashel. This will be a present for my oldest niece.



I have several small finishes and some projects that I finished into ornaments and pillows. My first one is Little Lady Liberty by Little House Needleworks.



I also finished Christmas in the Country by Little House Needleworks.  I changed some of the colors to what I had in my stash.

Lastly, I have two Halloween Finishes. I finished a pattern in Boo Moon by Prairie Schooler into an ornament.

I also finished a pattern in Heads Up by Prairie Schooler into a pillow. I stitched this one on PTP Eek cashel.

I am currently working on Freesia Crystals by Chatelaine. My plan is to post a progress picture sometime next month ;)

Thanks for stopping by!

Hi! I have lots of photos to share.

First up: two ornament finishes. These will be Christmas presents this year. I have four done and one more to do.

Merry Christmas by Little House Needleworks

I finished Mermaid Azure by Nora Corbett. She is stitched on PTP Glacier cashel. My niece selected this mermaid, and it will be a present for her.



My other niece selected Ophelia's Pearl by Nora Corbett. I am stitching her on PTP Coastal cashel.

Finishes

I finished Azalea at the end of October. She is stitched on Bo-peep pink cashel linen (which is actually a very pale pink). I like all the brights colors in her :)



On Halloween weekend, I decided to stitch a little Prairie Schooler ornament from Boo Moon. I changed the moon from orange to yellow.

Right now I am working on Pumpkin Hollow Farms by Little House Needleworks. My plan is to finish this one before Thanksgiving.

Thanks for stopping by!

October Update

I have a finish! Ana by Nora Corbett. She is stitched on PTP Storm belfast. I finished her at the end of September.


I have continued working on Azalea by Nora Corbett. Unfortunately, she had a little incident with Mandy. Mandy went snooping in my bag and pulled out a container of Thread Heaven, which she broke into tiny pieces. Mandy also decided to chew a little on the hoop holding Azalea. There are 2 spots on the right side where the fabric is a little thin, but at least she did not tear a whole. I gave Azalea a wash to get the dog saliva and blood out of the fabric. Azalea is a little worse for wear, but I think she looks ok, She has a little more character now.

While Azalea was getting cleaned, I started Electra by Nora Corbett on PTP French Lilac belfast.

IHSW July

For this IHSW, I worked on At the Met by Mirabilia. I am getting close to finishing her. Yay!

It has been awhile since I last posted an update. I finished French Country Elephant by JBW Designs for my nephew that was born last month. It is stitched on Marble Belfast linen using Turkish Red thread by Weeks Dye Works.

We visited our new nephew earlier this month for a short vacation, and I started working Azalea by Nora Corbett. She is stitched on Bo-Peep Pink Cashel linen. Once I finish At the Met, I will then continue working on Azalea.

Thanks for stopping by!

IHSW January

It has been awhile since I last posted!

For ISHW January, I worked on Gardenia by Nora Corbett. She is on PTP's crystal Chrysalis cashel linen. She was one of my new year starts.

Since I have not posted in awhile, I have a lot of pictures to show :)

My other new year start was Old World Vinery by Chatelaine. This one is on 32 ct ivory jobelan. I can't wait to get some more progress in, but I need to finish Lady Hera first.

This weekend I also finished Our Love Nest by Country Cottage Needleworks into a box. I thought it turned out pretty well, and I am glad it is no longer sitting in my drawer of finished cross-stitch.


I have been working a Lady Hera. It is about time I finished her, but the peacock tail is huge and taking some time to stitch! Hopefully I will finish her up in February.


Since I was getting a bit tired of Lady Hera, I also started At the Met by Mirabilia. I love the colors in her sash.

I also finished Knock Knock by Prairie Schooler into a box last October. I am finishing several of my other pieces into boxes too.


Last, but not least, is Luna by Nora Corbett. I stitched this piece for my sister's family, and it was their Christmas present.



Thanks for stopping by!

Catching up!

It is been awhile, but I do have some pictures :)

First up: framed Take Me Out to the Ballgame. This will be in hubby's office whenever he puts it up. There is a bit of a glare on the glass.


Second: framed When Witches Go Riding. I already have this one hanging in the kitchen. I put it up at the beginning of September :) Ellie's tale also made an appearance.

Third: I finished Sunflowers in Summer by Country Cottage Needleworks at the beginning of September.

Last: My new start. Luna by Nora Corbett. She is on 28 ct woodland violet jobelan. My niece picked out this pattern when we stopped at The Stitching Bee in Wisconsin. It is going to be a Christmas present for their family.

Thanks for stopping by!
