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!

More Celtic Autumn and New Start

Well, I decided to go with white, not because I don't think the gold is beautiful, but because I am lazy. Since I had already started the white I didn't feel like ripping it out. So here is my latest progress pic...

And my new start is Little House Needleworks "Strawberry House." I've had it kitted for a while now and decided to start it because I was needing something small to work on. And I was going through LHN withdrawals - LOL! :)

Help Me Decide!

I have been stitching along on Celtic Autumn. I'm really enjoying it - especially now that I'm past all those swirls! My only problem is I can't decide to make part of the dress white or gold. Here's a link to Andrea's, which is the conversion I'm using and Lisa's (she's using the gold). They are both beautiful. I have already started stitching the white, so I may end up going with that. But I do like the gold too. Lisa was kind enough to give me her conversion. What do you all think?? Here is my progress as of yesterday...

Celtic Autumn as of 9/11/08

I also worked on my "Amish Trip Around the World" canvas work piece a little bit last night. This was something good for me to work on last night when I was a little tired, but still wanted to stitch.

Well, nothing else going on here! Write later! :)

Celtic Autumn and Madeira Tin Project

Hi Everyone! I have been stitching. I have been working mostly on Celtic Autumn. I'm finally past the many color changes of the swirly part of her skirt.

And here's my little start on my tin project. I'm working on stitching the biscornu right now...

Madeira Class Project

I have about five weeks to finish it. I think I can do it! :) Write later!

This and That and Rain

Well, my dh has gone out of town, so his side is the bed is filled with stitching stuff. I have canvas work, cross stitch and knitting! I have been working on a little bit of everything today!

I finished up a sock yesterday - it fits perfect and I love it! I'm anxious to get started on the second one now.

BFF Sock

It looks huge, but it's really not. It's just the angle in which the picture was taken.

I have also been working on another canvas work piece. This is a freebie by Laura J. Perin called "Grandma's Flower Garden." Which you can find here (scroll down).

I'm not too far away from being finished. I like these little designs they are so quick and easy and fun! Thank you all for your very kind comments on my other canvas work - "Hide & Seek." You have inspired me to keep at it! :)

I have also rejoined the Celtic Lady SAL. I got Celtic Autumn back out and stitched on her just a bit tonight. I know I really should be finishing up my neighborhood, but I think I'm feeling a little anxious about Hanna. Although all we've had so far is rain - no wind. Hopefully it stays that way.

I have been watching the weather channel all day. I'm not sure how much sleep I will get since I will probably leave the weather channel on just in case we have any severe weather. Like I said hopefully not! Here's our latest radar image...

Celtic Autumn Day 2

I got a little bit more of her dress done yesterday. There are a lot of color changes in this section!



I've almost got the border on Curly Q finished. I haven't stitched much today because I went shopping for new clothes for my trip. I have been wearing the same old clothes since I had Matthew and it was so nice to treat myself to something new. I also got my hair chopped off - at least five inches! It feels so good, I don't know why I didn't do that sooner!

Well, hopefully I'll have more to show on Curly Q tomorrow! Write later! :)
