March Update

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

Let Us Adore Him by Country Cottage 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.

Lastly, my progress on Red. I am working on her cape now. It is a good thing I like the color red since there is so much of it.

January Update

I had my first two finishes of 2016 in January. The first one was Merry Merry! by Country Cottage Needleworks. I stitched it on Star Sapphire jobelan. For a little extra bling, I added white beads to the red part of the tree.

My next finish was Be Merry by Country Cottage Needleworks. I stitched this one on cream belfast. I substituted Turkish Red by Weeks Dye Works for the specified red in the pattern. Both of these ornaments are quite adorable :)

My New Year's Day start was Medieval Enchantment by Passione Ricamo. I am using Earthen Belfast by Picture this Plus. I probably will not pick her back up until I am done with Red.

Below is my progress on Red. I love her dress!

I plan to stitch a couple more ornaments in February. I also started Mermaid Azure by Nora Corbett this weekend, and I hope to finish her in February too :)

Last Finish of 2015

Pumpkin Hollow Farms by Little House Needleworks was my last finish of 2015. I stitched it on Light Mocha Belfast linen. This was a cute fall finish :)

I started Red by Mirabilia. She is on pearl gray belfast linen. I am so happy that I finally was able to start this one. So far, she is one of my favorite Mirabilias.

My New Year's Day start for 2016 will be Medieval Enchantment by Passione Ricamo. I have her all kitted up and ready to go.

Happy Holidays!

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.

Finished

I finished At the Met by Mirabilia earlier this month and dropped her off at the framer last week. She is gorgeous, and I can't wait to see what she looks like framed. She is stitched on Light Mocha Cashel linen.

Some close ups:

I will be starting Ana by Nora Corbett. My goal is to have her finished before Halloween.
