12 Days of Christmas update

Here is a picture of my progress on Teresa Wentzler's 12 Days of Christmas.  I just finished Day 3!

Now that I've completed a "section" of this, I'm going to let myself start a new project.  I'll be starting Godspeed from Heaven and Earth Designs.  Yeah!!

Happy Stitching!

My Dream Project

On my Yahoo groups list, StacysXSList, we have a SAL for our Dream Projects.  My d.p. is La Belle Dame Sans Merci by Frank Dicksee from Heaven and Earth Designs.  As of last night, I have finished 4 pages of the pattern.  Here is a photo of my progress:

Since I've finished this page, I'm letting myself work on Teresa Wentzler's 12 Days of Christmas for a little bit.  When I finish Day 3 on this, I'm going to start another HAED pattern:  Godspeed by Leighton.

Happy Stitching!

Needlepoint Pillow

I finished the needlepoint pillow that I have been working on for the last few months.  I had the kit for a couple of years prior to stitching it.  About a year ago, I was getting ready to start it but couldn't get the colors sorted properly and got frustrated. 

I finally decided to at least get the wool sorted as part of the January 1 Challenge on the 2MuchXS list:  http://groups.yahoo.com/group/2muchXS/

On January 1, I got all the colors arranged and put in the first few stitches.  I finished the stitching this past week only to realize that I didn't have any stuffing to make it into a pillow!  Saturday, I made it over to Walmart to get the polyfill and later that night, finished the assembly.

Here's a picture of the finished pillow:

Happy Stitching!

Well, here is a subject close to my heart - both as a stitcher and hobby designer.  This site addresses it well:

Another Baby Afghan

I finished another baby afghan.  This one is for my cousin Jen's baby boy who is supposed to make his appearance in November.

The pattern is from The Best of Terry Kimbrough Baby Afghans from Leisure Arts.  I've done several different patterns from this book - it's a great resource!

Happy Stitching!

Wild Menagerie

Wild Menagerie is done!!  I finished it Sunday night (well, early Monday morning to be precise).

Here's a picture of the finished project:

My next project will be La Belle Dame Sans Merci  from Heaven and Earth Designs.

Happy Stitching!!

Wild Menagerie update

Well, I've finished 2 more pages on Wild Menagerie. That leaves just 2 pages to go - the pages with the least stitching on them!



This means the tiger and lion are completely done. The leopard just needs to have his nose finished.

Happy Stitching!
