A little more progress....

I'm still stitching away on Bent Creek's "Seasons of Change Row." I'm on the winter section now, which is the last season.

Well, nothing else going on here except tons of laundry. I lay in bed for one day and it really piles up! I'm still sick, but it's time to get to work. I don't get much sympathy! LOL! :)

Stitching, Dyeing and Kitting

I have been stitching some. I finished up Sea to Shining Sea "Mountains." I plan to get "Midwest" started soon.

I also got out Bent Creek's "Seasons of Change Row." I would like to get this one finished up. It's too small to be a UFO! :)

WIP Update

I have a new Fall project that I started yesterday. It's Little House Needleworks "Two White Houses." I'm loving it so far!

LHN "Two White Houses"

I'm stitching it on my favorite fabric, 32 ct. Vintage Examplar by Lakeside Linens. I also worked on "Seasons of Change Row" and "Celtic Autumn" a little bit last week. Here's my latest progress on those two...

It's currently 80 degrees, so it's not feeling too fall like right now. I'm hoping the cooler weather will come back soon! :) Write later!

I have been bad

Remember how I said I just wanted to buy more and more canvas work designs, but I could not because I had to stick to my budget? Well, my clicky finger did not listen to my brain. It had a mind of it's own! My justification was that I have birthday coming up. Actually it's still about 1 1/2 months away. The first one I got was "Rambling Rose" by Laura J. Perin. I did not come up with these colors on my own. I have ashamedly copied Coni's sister Chrissy. I fell in love with the colors she used for this design! They are so pretty!

The next one is "Summer Days" also by Laura J. Perin. The colors are the original colors used in the design.

I have been stitching some too. I got a little bit more stitched on my "Seasons of Change Row."

And I got a little bit more stitched on my Madeira Tin Project.

Well, I'm going to get back to my stitching! Write later! :)

Autumn Harvest Finished!

I got Autumn Harvest finished last night. It was a fun stitch and appropriate because a little cold front came through and now we have wonderful cool mornings. I'm hoping it stays that way! I have missed fall so much!

I also decided to start something else yesterday...

Bent Creek "Seasons of Change Row"

It's "Seasons of Change Row" by Bent Creek. I started at the end (on the fall side) and I'm going to make my way towards winter.

I did finally hear from Debby last night. She has been without power and water for almost two weeks now! She borrowed a neighbor's generator to get online last night. She's hoping to have her power and water back on today! Hopefully she does, I couldn't even imagine what it's been like for her - I'm glad she is safe though! I was worried!
