"I'll Make My Own Happy Ending"

I managed to squeeze in a finish before 2008 ended! Here is "I'll Make My Own Happy Ending" by Dragon Dreams. I used some floss that I already had laying around the house instead of ordering the suggested ones on the chart. For the frog, I used DMC variations #4045 and I think I may have had to change some of the shadowing colors as well. For the wording, I used DMC #52.

Puppies and Frogs!

This is Julie. She's growing so fast now! She even lost a baby tooth last week. She is getting so destructive here lately. She loves to chew and rip things up like the newspaper, pillows, stuffed animals, and even the phone book. And as you can see from the pic, she insists on sleeping on your pillow! Yes, she's my Sister's dog but until she grows out of the puppy stage, she stays with me.


Here is my latest progress on "I'll Make My Own Happy Ending" by Dragon Dreams. I don't really enjoy stitching with metallic threads that much but they sure do make a project "pop." The shoe is done in pearl metallic thread for those who are not familiar with this design. There's also going to be a gold metallic crown on the frogs head.

It's a few days late but here is my TW Mondays project, Above the Clouds.


This is I'll Make my Own Happy Ending. I got all of the frog done except for maybe some dots in the eyes. Oh, I forgot that there's webbing between his toes also. So, I'm not quite as done with him as I thought. ;)

Last week was pretty chaotic and I got absolutely no stitching done. It feels really good this week to get back into my stitching. I also have two quilts planned. I might try to get started on that this weekend.
