Home Sweet Home Finished!

I finished it up yesterday at Martha's stitch-in, which was a blast by the way! I was so excited to meet Deb (Lavender Rose) and see Martha again. The stitching, food and company was wonderful and I can't wait to go again! :)


Country Cottage Needleworks "Home Sweet Home"
Fabric: 32 ct. Cream Belfast Linen
Threads: Crescent Colours, GAST, and DMC
Started: 10/1/07
Finished: 10/8/07

I also worked on "Happy Haunting" a little bit. I got some more of the grass filled in...



Now I am almost wishing I had used the original fabric. Deb asked why I changed and looking at it in the natural light of Martha's sunroom I couldn't tell her why. I really liked it in that light. Oh well, I don't think I plan to rip it out now - maybe I'll sleep on it! :) Well, not much else going on. Dh just left - he got an extra day off because of the government holiday. I miss him already, but I'm doing much, much better than before. No more crying - lol! :) Write later!

Home Sweet Home Wip

I've been really enjoying stitching this one. I feel bad for neglecting Happy Haunting, but I truly am a CCN/LHN addict lately. I love them for their simple colors, subjects and materials. They are all so pretty and I have so many waiting to be stitched next! In fact my small chart basket was overflowing with them, so I got them their own basket today! :)





I just had to share this video I took today. Jake was making Matthew laugh so hard, it was so funny! They are such silly boys!



Well, not much else going on here! Write later! :)

Home Sweet Home

I worked on HSH instead of "Happy Haunting." I was actually thinking I should probably finish "My Earth" before starting another big Shepherd's Bush design. So I worked on that a little bit too. I don't have a lot to do, but what I do have is a lot of annoying backstitching. I hate backstitching! Anyway, here's my little progress pic of "Home Sweet Home."



I didn't want to stop stitching, but I was so tired! I'll probably work on it or "My Earth" again today.

Write later! :)
