Finishes

Tuesday, January 31st, 2006

I finished Winter Warmth today, as well as finally got around to putting together the January Just Cross Stitch ornament. I decided not to stitch the black background, as I thought it looked just fine without it (and I didn’t want to spend the time doing that!).

I’ve had the ornament stitched for a […]

Quick Finish

Monday, January 30th, 2006

I cleaned up my stitching supplies today (and the downstairs room in general), and while sorting through some Christmas stuff, I found a neat frame I picked up on clearance last year. So, I sorted through some of my little Christmas projects, and picked out this one, because the holly in the design […]

Finished special present

Sunday, January 29th, 2006

I’ve finished Glenn’s Valentine’s Day present (quick, huh?), but don’t want to post it yet in case he checks my blog.
I’ve been doing some thinking about things I’d like to get done this year, as I never really posted any real goals for 2006. I have a few goals for the upcoming months.
First, […]

Another quick finish

Saturday, January 28th, 2006

So, this is what I started the other night… I just needed another quick finish, I guess!

I’ve gone on from this to working on Glenn’s Valentine’s Day present. Hopefully it won’t take me longer than a day or two (I designed it nice and small for a quick stitch), and then I’ll […]

Old SBQ

Friday, January 27th, 2006

Taken from a LJ community I belong to, since there’s no new SBQ this week.
On a scale of 1 to 5 with 1 being the lowest and 5 being the highest, how comfortable do you feel changing a design’s colors or the entire color scheme? Elaborate if you wish.
Maybe a 2 or 3. […]

Sigh…

Thursday, January 26th, 2006

Got the finishing itch again, so I started a small freebie from the Cricket Collection. You can find it here. Did most of the checkerboard on the mug so far tonight. Hopefully the release of the third installment of Stitching in the Garden tomorrow will get me back together.

Color problems?

Wednesday, January 25th, 2006

Finished up that big schoolwork project yesterday, so I’m taking a day off from class projects to chill, read, and stitch. Finally finished up the part of the project that we received last Friday, but I’ve been hopping around a lot. I’ve got most of the torso of the stitcher finished, and […]

Blah

Tuesday, January 24th, 2006

Project’s turned in, but not much time left to stitch tonight My car broke down yesterday night, so I had a bit of fun with that today. Luckily it’s fixed and back in my hands. I’m almost finished with the house - just have to finish up the greenery around […]

Stitching in the Garden WIP

Monday, January 23rd, 2006

Big school project coming up, so not much stitching getting done. I’ve mostly been working on Stitching in the Garden. I’ve finished up the higher bands (including the first of the cute cross stitched frogs!), and now that I’ve moved down to a mainly cross stitch section, I’ve been hopping around between […]
