Not One, But Two New Starts...

Yes, I was extra bad yesterday! I ended up starting "Happy Haunting" and "Home Sweet Home." I think Home Sweet Home will be my take with me project. There aren't as many color changes.

Here's my progress on Happy Haunting first...


I wasn't sure about the sheep, so I stitched some of it first. Alison suggested using two strands of silk, and I think that's a good idea! I ended up changing the fabric to R&R Antique Cotton. It's a little less yellow. There's not much to show on HSH, I just stitched a little bit of the border before I got too tired. If I get more done today I'll post a pic tomorrow! :)
