GREAT HARVEST

FREE KITTENS
By Diane Arthurs

We'll be starting Great Harvest first in a couple of weeks.  I am also this close to finishing my Mermaids, here is a little peak....

I hope to finishing all the stitching, and back stitching, by the weekend so I can do the beading.  There are a ton of beads to add and I can't wait to get this  finished!

Have a great week everyone and Happy Stitching!!
 

Stitching the Day Away!

I took a vacation day from work yesterday and I spent the day stitching.  The entire day.  I put some stitches in these....

 I can't figure out why the picture turned sideways, so you'll have to turn your head to the left to view.  I guess it doesn't really matter because it looks like a blob no matter which way you turn your head! lol

OUT FOR A RIDE

And that was my Friday.  Today I'm going to be walking in a parade to support my candidate for Sheriff so I don't know when I'll hit the stitching chair, but you can bet I will!

Have a great weekend everyone and Happy Stitching!!

SAL Update & Other Weekend Stitching

It's time for my SAL update with Chelle.  Here is my progress from Sunday.

ALL HEARTS COME HOME

I'm pretty sure I'll be able to finish the cross stitching next Sunday and also get started on the back stitching.  This has really been a fun and quick stitch.

In other weekend stitching I put a few stitches in each of these.

SPRING FAIRY
By:  Joan Elliott 

I still don't know which new HAED I'm going to start first, but I do know that I'm not going to start any of them until I finish something!  I'm pretty close to finishing Mermaids so when it's done I will allow myself to start one of the HAED's. 

Hope everyone has a great week filled with lots of stitching!

More HAED Stash!

I know, I know, how many HAED charts does one stitcher really need?  Chelle tried her best to convince me that I have more charts than I can possibly finish in my lifetime, but my addiction won out and I bought these...

BEACON RIDGE

BEAUTIFUL (DURR)

BELIEVE (MILLER)

RESTLESS TONIGHT

ROSE OF FIRE

I've decided that a stitcher can never have too much stash!  I'm done now, or at least until the next sale!

Happy Stitching!!

HAED Stash!

I couldn't help myself, I had to feed my addiction.  But really who could pass up such a sweet sale?  Here is what I got.

INSPIRATION POINT

A TIME TO CELEBRATE

FAERY BALL

HER SPECIAL PLACE

ROSE DREAM

There were more that caught my eye but somehow I managed to pull myself away from the computer. But my brain knows that the sale doesn't end until the 10th so there's still time...........

Happy Stitching!

SAL Update

I'm a day late posting my SAL update with Chelle, but I was just too tired to post last night.  In fact I didn't even pick up a needle last night!!  And so far tonight my needle has not made it into any fabric and I'm not sure that it will.  Here is where I'm at with All Hearts Come Home.

I also noticed that HAED is having a 50% off sale.  I am so tempted to buy a few charts but I know if I buy them I will have to start them and how many HAED's can a person stitch at one time?  The sale ends at midnight on the 10th so I really need to make up my mind.  Should I or shouldn't I?  For those of you that stitch HAED's how many do you stitch at once?  I have just started my very first one and so far I really love it and want to do more but I know I really shouldn't start them all at the same time, especially given the number of WIP's I already have, but I know I won't be able to control myself!

Oh well I could have a worse addiction! Right?

Happy Stitching!

 

Thank you Chelle!!

Finally, I can comment on blogs thanks to Chelle! I had tried everything possible to be able to comment and Chelle finally figure out that I had a windows problem.  I had been getting onto the Internet through Internet Explorer and she told me to get on through Firefox and it worked, I was able to comment on her blog!!

Thank you everyone for your suggestions, I really appreciated them and Chelle  you rock!!

Happy Stitching everyone!
