Harvest Blessings Finished!

I got it finished up last night while listening to Drums of Autumn by Diana Gabaldon on CD. I love all the Outlander books, but I hadn't been able to get through this one, so I thought maybe I'd do better to listen to it, and so far it's working. I was so excited to see that my local library had a ton of books on CD and tape and they have a program online where you can download them. I needed something to fill my Gilmore Girl void! :) Anyway, here's a couple pics....




Country Cottage Needleworks "Harvest Blessings"
Fabric: 32 ct. Light Mocha Belfast
Threads: Crescent Colours and DMC
I also received a little stash in the mail the other day from Handcrafts Online...



I got a couple CCN and LHN charts and I also got the Black Belfast I was needing for Hanky Pysanky...



Well, that's all for now! I'm really going to try to get my Sunflower Bellpull finished up before I start anything else! :)

P.S. Cathy, the Hanky Pysanky chart does have the instructions for the smalls. Sorry I didn't answer you sooner! ;)

Almost Finished!

I'm almost finished with "Harvest Blessings." It's been a fun stitch! I was so tired last night, but I couldn't sleep, so I got back up and decided to stitch until I couldn't keep my eyes open any longer. It worked, I slept like a log after that!


Please excuse the wrinkles! :)
I looked over at Matthew who was in his crib last night and this is what I saw...



He had fallen asleep sitting up! Too funny! Of course I had to take a picture before I laid him down.


Ahh.. that's better
What a silly guy! Well, my brother has left for Idaho! That means vacation time for me, which means stitching time! I'm sure I'll get Harvest Blessing finished up today and then it's on to something else!

New Start!

Instead of working on Sunflower Bellpull I ended up starting something new! It's CCN's "Harvest Blessings." I'm really enjoying it. I love the colors in this one.



I'm stitching it on 32 ct. Light Mocha Belfast. The only thread change I made is instead of DMC white I'm using Crescent Colours Magnolia Blossom. It's a softer thread and is a little bit creamier. I did have a little mess up. There are two flowers that should be yellow, but I'm not ripping them out. They will just have to stay orange. :)

Well, not much else going on. I'm just so glad I've got my stitching mojo back! I hated going through that slump! Write later!
