MMMM #2


Let’s face it.  If this week had gone as well as last week, I probably still wouldn’t be done with this.  But it is progressing.

 
Here’s to a great stitching week ahead.

Happy stitching World.

Mini Mega Madness Post #1


The madness begins.  I had to get some color onto Santa because white on white is as hard to see as it is to stitch.

 

This little Santa and reindeer (yet to come) are from Kooler Design Studio’s 365 Quick Christmas Cross Stitch Designs.

Be sure to check out the other participants here.

Stitch from Stash September


A good month. I finished Batgirl the other day.  Captain America (Dork Stitch) is finished too.



  

I made a small start on another long term project.  This is “Starry Night with Tardis” charted by Skitzz.

 


Leave it to me to start something I haven’t gathered all the floss for.  Guess I should have started the HAED.  Too bad I couldn’t decide which one. J

My LNS order from last month finally came in.

 


Little House – Route 66

Imaginating – Let’s Be Wicked

Waxing Moon – Midnight Manor

Total spent - $24.00.  More good stitching to look forward to.

In my never ending search for reasons to start things I’ve joined a new SAL.  Pull the Other Thread is hosting a “Mega Mini Madness” SAL.  I’ve been going through my stash trying to decide what to do and what to start first.  I’ll either decide by Wed or just open a book and start there. (not likely)

Stitch from Stash August


I did get some stitching done this month, among all the unpacking.  It was kind of fun to open a box and go “What’s this?  I should work on it.”  So I made a little more progress on Bienvenue.

 
 
 

My shopping has picked back up too.  I tried to take Mel’s advice and pick up some new market releases.  But my LNS didn’t bring home any of my choices.  There’s next month taken care of though, because I left the list with them to order.  Fear not, for in its place there’s this.

 

The JCS Halloween Special, the July – Aug. issue of Cross Stitch Card Shop and some Carrie’s Creation Threads.  The pile on the left is the colors for Hawaiian Mandala and the pile on the right I may use in Quaker Gone Tropic.  Total purchases $39.98.

Smalls SAL


Figures right?  You get everything moved and you’re ready to sit down and stitch, when you find out you’re expected to unpack.  Geez.  Still, the new place is looking pretty good.  There was some small progress on a couple of things.

 
Why that sprite isn’t done I don’t know.  Mostly because the colors I needed were not in the box like I thought.  There’s a three day weekend coming up and then I might find the rest of the threads and a finish.

Stitch From Stash July 2014


No stitching or stashing for me this month.  My time has been spent moving.  I’d like to say we’re finished, but at least we’re in the home stretch.  If the internet service switch goes well (don’t laugh) everything should be up and running by the weekend.  And hopefully I’ll be back to stitching by Friday night.

Happy stitching World!!
