Mothers Arms

Mother's Arms by Mirabilia (I am sensing a pattern) also got some attention. I spent the entire day on this one while at Julie's house for a stitch in. The Maiden

Just keep swimming

Unemployment has been amazing for my crosstitch! While I am indulging during my off time, I am finding it difficult to stick to one project...

Here is my progress on Enchanted Mermaid by Mirabilia. The Maiden

IHSW and Stitchers Retreat

Wow, what a great stitchy weekend! For Friday and Saturday I worked on the Crone's Birthday present (36ct over one, never again!) and then it was off to the Stitchers retreat- a full day of stitching, food and AMAZING projects. I left very inspired and with the Crones help have made some new friends (you may see embroidery and 40ct silk gauze in our future).

Enchanted Mermaid by Mirabilia somehow made it into my bag as a back up and it turned out to be all I worked on! I had completed the face last year, which is even larger than the one on Venetian, but have not touched it since. As soon as the green Krenic made it into the leaves I was hooked! My only fear is the beads, 38 packages!

Stitchers Retreat anyone?

This Sunday is the Las Vegas Stitcher's Retreat and the Crone and I will be there with projects in hand! I love getting together with other stitchers and seeing all the different projects, I usually walk away with several new must have projects in mind!



Luckily, it is also hermit and stitch weekend! I have a feeling this will be my best Hermit attempt ever! The Maiden

Trick or Treat Fairy Finished!!!

My beading nightmare is complete! I am really excited about my latest addition to my Halloween collection, but there is no time to waste. Up next is Masquerade by Ink Circles (no beading on this one! Giggle). The Maiden

I tried so hard to finish... so close, but with all the bridal shower planning this weekend (for my sister) I could only devote a few hours to Trick or Treat Fairy. The beads on this are outrageous, my next project may be sans beads after this! Hopefully I can post a finish later this week.




I did manage a little progress on Sleeping Beauty. The urn in the corner is now complete! I should be able to start on the dress tomorrow, so exciting to see this come to life after so many years in the dark! The Maiden

IHSW

Yeah another weekend of Hermit and Stitch! I really do look forward to this all Month! The plan is to finish my Trick or treat fairy (only beading and backstitching to go!). Hopefully I will have some time to devote to Sleeping Beauty as well...

In went to my LNS shop last night for our first Thur. after work stitch in, so much fun! Juls was there (taunting me with her Sleeping Beauty) and so was our newest stitchy friend Megan. Stitching and Greek food, what more could you want?
