I’ll cross that stitch when I come to it

I tried to go to the LNS by my house yesterday, but it’s been replaced by a primitive country store I did finish up LHN’s Acorn last night, as I wasn’t feeling too well. I’m feeling better today, so I better go get packing!

We’re here! And borrowing Glenn’s mom’s new computer so I could check my email. Due to a 3hr traffic jam around DC, I’ve almost finished LHN/CC’s Acorns. Just a few snowflakes, and it’ll be all done! I brought that, LHN/CC’s Pumpkin Patch, a Silver Needle Night kit, and Sweetheart Tree’s […]

Well, I’m driving back home tomorrow with Glenn and Gram for a week. We’re going to try to finish cleaning my stuff out of my Dad’s house. Wish me luck! I’m bringing some cross stitch with me, too. So far, I’ve decided to bring the supplies to make my bookmark […]

I had an awful migraine yesterday, so I stayed home from work. I did get a bit of stitching done - I finished up all the cross stitch and backstitch for Crescent Dreams. I think I’m going to save the beads until I personalize it (after the baby is born, of course). […]

I had a business dinner, and then by the time I got home, I curled up in my stitching chair… and promptly fell asleep! Just wanted to pop on and check on things before going off to bed.
Oh, and congratulations to Claudia and little Alondra Sophia! She was born on the 5th […]

I’m not quite finished yet, but man! I’m so close!

If this was a long weekend, I’d definitely be able to finish it tomorrow! As it is, I hope to get the rest of the cross stitching done tomorrow, and then do the backstitching and beading on Tuesday.

Still can’t find my camera, so no pics of the snowman. However, look how far I got on Crescent Dreams today! One woman on the Mirabilia Board said she finished this in 3 days - I’m not sure I can stitch that fast, but this does seem like quite a quick project.

I’ve […]

Yay, I finished the snowman! His face is a little weird - there’s no directions on where to place the buttons, except for the packaging picture. He’s very three-dimensional, so he won’t fit on the scanner, and I can’t find my camera, so no picture tonight.
I also started Mirabilia’s Crescent Dreams on […]

No, not a happy dance yet, unfortunately.

Most of the stitching is done. The skates and snowman himself is done in Fyreworks, which is a shiny ribbon that frays easily. The mittens and hat brim are done in yarn, and the scarf and hat top in something labeled “fuzzy stuff.” I know […]

I didn’t get much done on the snowman tonight - lots of errands to run after work - so no new pic of that tonight.
I decided not to set goals for this month, mostly because I’m studying for a major certification that I’ll be sitting for at the end of February. I’ll be […]
