Progress at last

Having been in a stitching slump for the last few weeks things appear to have turned a corner!

This week I achieved my goal of completing the bottom two corners that make up part 6of White Nights. Here is a close up of one of them.


This is what the whole project looks like, probably for the last time, as the next time it's on the rotation it needs to be rolled up.


I managed to finish both corners by Thursday evening so I was able to stitch on something else. I decided to finish the Just Nan Winter Hearts Humbug. This is what it looks like before it is made up.


This is a bad photo of the finished humbug. I'll try and get a better photo in natural light next week.


Have a great stitching weekend.

Hiding from Thanksgiving!

I confess, what with one thing and another, no progress was made on The Green Santa this week but it is on the rotation for next week. However, with a busy week coming up at work it's another fingers crossed job for that particular project.

I have managed to do some stitching on smaller pieces. Another Secret Needle Night project was started and finished. This one is called Hiding from Thanksgiving!

Hiding from Thanksgiving
The turkey, in disguise, is my favorite and so has a photo all to himself.


With the imminent release of the next Just Nan Spring Humbug I thought I'd better get a move on and stitch the Winter one. This is all stitched up with the recommended floss. Some of the beads have been attached but not all.


Having done 'school stuff' for the last six or so hours I'm off to have a shower and hopefully later on I will be able to put some stitches into my Christmas ornament for Yoyo's Christmas Design SAL' another project which has also been woefully neglected.

Happy Stitching
