I’ll cross that stitch when I come to it

I finished up the baby bib last night, in plenty of time for the baby shower on Saturday!

After that, I wanted to work on something small, so I found this little kit. The colors are a little weird, but it’s still cute.

I still have to figure out some way of covering the […]

This week’s SBQ:
Do you stitch Christmas ornaments? If so, how many do you stitch each year and for whom? If not, why not?
I do - though I haven’t finished many of them - just the ones that came with plastic hangers Since I haven’t really finished any of them yet, I stitch […]

This isn’t the Christmas project, but it is another new start. One of my co-workers is having a baby shower on Saturday, so I’m stitching a baby bib for her. I just started it this afternoon, and I’m already mostly finished

Hopefully I can finish this up tomorrow night so that I […]

A few weeks ago’s SBQ:
How many different brands of “complete” embroidery floss sets do you own? How do you keep track of it? (i.e., spread sheet program, index cards, palm pilot, etc.)
Well, I have all the regular DMC colors, and quite a few of the color variations, light effects, and such. I’m currently […]

So, what have I been up to? Well, on Saturday I waited in line for 12 hours for the new Nintendo Wii (yeah, I have no life). So, I got a lot of stitching done! I pretty much started and finished up Peaches by Little House Needleworks. All I had […]

Well, let’s just say the past few weeks have been very busy at work. I’ve just been too stressed out after work to do much besides just relax - I haven’t even felt like stitching much! Because of this, I’m probably going to forget about stitching most of the Christmas presents - […]

I ran out and got that Kreinik after work, so now I’m pretty much done with the stitching on the biscornu - I’m planning on finishing it up tomorrow, and then I’ll send it on its way! I didn’t work on anything else today, though.

I was this close to finishing up the cross stitching portion of the biscornu, when I ran out of Kreinik braid. Oh well, guess I’ll have to wait to finish that up until I can go to a craft store. In the meantime, here’s my first hour or two of work on […]

I’ve been working on my biscornu exchange piece lately, so I, of course, can’t show any pictures of that yet. I’ve finished all the cross stitching. All I have left is a little backstitching and the actual finishing of the piece before I can mail it out. Glenn really likes the […]

It’s that time again! I can’t believe it’s November - it was 70F yesterday!
My goals for October were:
- Continue working on Skeleton Crew (yup!)
- Finish Chartswappers ornie of the month - and last month’s, too! (no)
- Start a Christmas present / project (no)
Well, kinda abysmal. Honestly, I’ve been working so hard on […]
