One more down!

 Hey Everyone!

I just finished page 12 on Glistening Wings!

I’m going to start on page 13 in just a couple minutes.  I’ve hit 90% complete on this now.  Even as hot as it was here (88°F), I braved the heat in my craft room to work on this.  Having a room upstairs that is minimally insulated results in a sauna like environment, especially with 68% humidity. 🥵

Happy Stitching (and a bit of melting)!

First of the Last done!

 Hey Everyone!

I just finished the first page on the last row of Glistening Wings!

I’m loving stitching this but I am looking forward to finishing it.

Happy Stitching!

Getting Closer…

 Hey Everyone!

I just finished the 10th page of Glistening Wings!  I now only have 5 partial pages left.  Each of those is only 38 stitches high, so they should go fairly quickly.

I have actual work I have to get done tomorrow (awards don’t engrave themselves), but afterwards I can start on the final row.

Happy Stitching!

Page Finish!

 Hey, Everyone!

I just finished the last full page on my Glistening Wings!  This was page 9.  Page 10 is close to a full page (which is around 77 x 94), but it’s only 69 wide.

I’ll probably take a short break before starting page 10…might only be a few hours tomorrow, but still a break.

I have a jigsaw puzzle that I’ve been spending a few minutes on here and there.  I’m crazy for doing it.  It’s a 1500 piece puzzle which is not what’s crazy about it.  This photo should explain it.

The pieces aren’t “normal” either:

Happy Stitching!

Another page finished

 Hey Everyone!

I just finished page 8 on my HAED SAL Glistening Wings!

I have just 1 more full page left and 6 partials. I’m enjoying stitching this, but do want to finish it as soon as I can.  If I’m really focused (not typically me), I’d love to have it done in time to show it at our local fair (early August).  I’m going to try, but I’m not going to stress about it if I don’t.

Happy Stitching!

Diamond Painting finish

 Hey Everyone!

While I have still been working on my SAL, I have been taking breaks from it and working on a diamond painting.  I finished it the other evening!

I’ve already hung it up in my office area.

I’m now alternating between the SAL and a jigsaw puzzle of a pile of floss.

Happy Stitching!

Seven pages done!

Update:  I was asked if this meant I earned all of the charts offered in this year’s SAL.  Yes, this gives me 6 full pages finished and all the other charts.  I’m planning on trying to finish the entire chart before the end of the year, which will earn me one bonus chart (3 to choose from).

Hey Everyone!

Last night I finished page 7 on my HAED SAL!

I also fixed a boo-boo on page 6.  I had some out of place dark stitches along the bottom of the wing.  They should have been 436, not the 939 that I’d used.

I took a small break from this to work on a diamond painting kit I got from Hobby Lobby.  I’ve got about 50 rows done on that now.  

I did start on page 8 on the SAL this afternoon.  Not too much time spent on it, but progress is progress.

Happy Stitching!
