I’ll cross that stitch when I come to it

This week’s SBQ…
How do you share your finished pieces with others? Do you frame them, scan and/or photograph them, or do you have another method that you would like to share?
Well, isn’t that what this blog is for ? Most of my pieces end up framed, simply because I don’t have any sewing […]

Instead of working on Skeleton Crew, I’ve been working on the August ornie…

It’s Peace by Charlotte’s Web Needlearts. I didn’t care for the SAL choice for this month, so I substituted this instead. It’s a quick stitch - I’m doing it on 22ct antique white hardanger - but the gold braid is […]

I’ve been working on Skeleton Crew for, what seems to me like, a long time. I’m about tired of BAPs, and I’ve been fantasizing lately about starting projects that will only take me a week or two to finish. I even had a type of project picked out - Christmas ornaments, as […]

This week’s SBQ is…

What do you keep your WIPs and other stitching supplies in when traveling?
Usually, I keep all of my stitching projects in a tote bag when traveling. Individual projects are stored in ziploc bags.

Here’s a new pic of Skeleton Crew..

So, as you can see, I’ve finished the topmost sail and the wording. I started the moon today today, but I’ve been working on the waves for quite a while. You can also see just the tippy-top of the sea serpent My current stitching […]

Well, in good news, I get to work from home for the rest of the week. Yay for telecommuting in my PJs! Bad news is that I have several cert tests coming up next week, so I really need to keep my nose to the grindstone :/
Still chugging along - […]

I’ve already figured out it’s going to be a busy week at work. Unfortunately, this means less stitching time. So what have I been working on? Well, Skeleton Crew mostly. I’m almost half-way done with the waves, and I actually started the tippy-top of the ears on the sea serpent. […]

Oh dear, is it really the 20th? Eek, better pick an ornament, pronto!
I went stash shopping a little yesterday - I picked up another Casey Buonaugurio chart (”The Little Prince,” pic here) and Just Nan’s 12 Days of Christmas ornies. I’d seen them the last time I was in the […]

*Two* SBQs this week! The first question…
Do you have an organizational system for your fabric? If so, what is it? If not, what do you store your fabric in?
If by organization you mean stuffing it all in a plastic bin, then yes, I do . I don’t have much fabric - it’s […]

I didn’t get much stitching done today, mostly because of one thing - Glenn proposed to me So I had a few other good things to think about
