Bed Bound

There is nothing like the flu to get your stitching mojo going!
 
 
More progress on Sabrina, she has come further in 2 weeks than in the past 2 years!

First IHSW of 2013

I wish I could have been healthier this weekend, but my immune system has taken a vacation. Boo Hiss! I did manage some progress on Sabrina (her future owner was in town last weekend for our 30th Birthdays, so I was inspired to work on her!).

 
The picture does not do it justice, but the sparklie flowers are coming in finally!

New Start for 2013 - Faith, Hope and Love by The Workbasket

I decided to do this one one over one, so I could get it on the scrap piece of natural linen that I had with a DMC green that I had in abundance.  Already made an error in the top left but was too lazy to frog it.  Charging forward and making it my own one mistake at a time!

New Year New Start

How can I resist an opportunity for a new start? Mirabilia's Roses of Provence will do just fine I think!
Fabric is 32ct Sandcastle. 



I also wanted to try the "one strand a day" for a project that is not your primary and possibly a UFO. 
"Have a treat" is finally getting worked on, I think I may like this! 


 Happy New Year!

Last IHSW before the world ends...

Just kidding, I heard another Mayan tablet was found! Just in case the dead do rise, I thought I would work on Deathabilly by Gecko Rouge.
 

Yes, that is a boo boo stick. I was unfortunately visited by the Annoyicus  joyonous (this is the genus species I created for my frog) this weekend. I decided after I began to stitch to remove the background, so a couple hundred stitches must go to make my bee hive look right. I did manage about 1200 stitches between frogging, so I was happy.

 
In case the world does end at least I have a sled cat! This is my cat Toby, he is a Maine Coon weighing in at around 28 pounds (yes, that is a normal sized toilet).  The Maiden.
