Stitchin' Update

This week I got a bit of stitching done.  This might be the year of LizzieKate finishes for me- LOL, since they are quick and easy patterns.  I worked on the Year with Charm series.  

Here is January.

And February.

My oldest DD decided to start a rainbow heart pattern.  Here is her progress on it.

Friday morning, while helping my kids try to make bubble gum, I got a splinter in my right index finger!  Ouch!  That made stitching pretty hard most of the weekend, so I have been taking a break- playing Mario Kart on the Wii.  And the kids are complaining because they can't play!

I got a package from my finisher on Saturday.   Here are the finished pieces.

I love the black fuzzy thread on the spooky cat hanging ornament!

The quilt fabric for Home of a Needleworker is a pretty purple splotchy color. 

It did not photograph well, so here is a close-up of the fabric.

Two More Finishes!

Star Fob, by Prairie Moon
Stitched on 32-count linen
WDW Whitewash, Father's Day, Turkish Red
completed September 21, 2009

Finished two more between last night and today. The fob was finished this morning. The other one I finished last night while watching the rest of The Return of The King, with my Hubby. Can't show a picture right now.

Finishes number 22 and 23 on the year. Woo Hoo!

Stitching Update

I got a good bit of stitching done this week.

The Nativity Wiseman is coming along. I finished up the embellishment on the sleeves.





Home of a Needleworker is almost done. I am going to be altering the pattern a little, since the piece of fabric is small (bad measuring on my part!).


This is the progress I made on a gift pattern. That's why I am not showing the whole piece.



A new start too this week. This pattern was a birthday present from my mom this summer. She actually wanted to stitch the fob for me, but since my dad ended up in the hospital, things didn't quite go as planned.
