Happy Halloween!

Tuesday, October 31st, 2006

Nope, Skeleton Crew isn’t finished, but it’s pretty close. I’ll take a pic tomorrow - I’m pretty tired out. I’d give it another few nights of work. But, tomorrow I’m going to start my biscornu exchange piece, kit up Glenn’s mom’s Christmas present, and start a SAL. Happy Halloween!

Finish!

.. but it’s not Skeleton Crew.

This is Blue and White Floral, one of Victoria Sampler’s learning series hearts; this one’s for Assisi embroidery. This has been my car project for the past few months. I must’ve restitched the Assisi band three or four times - I kept making small mistakes. I […]

What Color is Your Brain?

GREEN:
At work or in school: I work best by myself. I like to focus on my ideas until my desire for understanding is satisfied. I am easily bored if the subject holds no interest to me. Sometimes, it is hard for me to set priorities because so […]

Here’s the pic of Skeleton Crew as of a few minutes ago.

What’s been accomplished? Well, I took care of a few things that were bothering me. I stitched in eyes on the skeletons and the serpent, and its tongue as well. I also finished the boat hull. Will I finish […]

Pic time!

Finally brought out the camera, so here’s a new pic of Skeleton Crew.

I’ve started a little of each of the sails, and started filling in some of the details. I’ve started working on each sail in turn, because some of them are a little annoying to work on. I hope to finish […]

Quick post

Still stitching along - not too much progress. I’ve started at least a little corner of each of the remaining sails, and also started stitching the witch’s cape today. Pic tomorrow - I promise! I was just too tired to deal with the camera today.

Plodding along

Thursday, October 26th, 2006

Well, no pic tonight. Work today was absolutely awful, and I ended up staying late, so I haven’t had much time to stitch, and I’ve just been too tired to take a picture. I did get a little more done on the largest sail, and finished up the face and hand of […]

SBQ: Halloween Edition

Wednesday, October 25th, 2006

This week’s SBQ is

If you were to come across a sampler chart that caught your eye and appealed to you, would you or would you not stitch it if it had a morbid or “creepy” saying on it? If not, why?
Sure. As long as it doesn’t have clowns. I’m really creeped […]

Pirate’s life for meeee

Tuesday, October 24th, 2006

I’ve finished another sail! Woohoo! That’s the third one, so only four left to go.

I’m hoping to finish up the moon tonight, also. By my self-imposed deadline, I only have 7 more days to go before I need to put this down to work on Christmas presents. I’m actually starting […]
