A Small Happy Dance



This is Kiss Me by Val's Stitching Stuff stitched on 14 ct. Purple Potter aida. I made quite a few color and wording changes so I added the original photo to show the differences. I am planning to make it into a Christmas ornament. My plan is to decorate a tree with just frog ornaments this Christmas. I will still have a tree for the regular ornaments though. I need to come up with a frog angel for a tree topper. Ha ha!

Anyway, I have been super busy with babysitting my new little nephew as well as my two cousins after they get home from school. So my stitching has been reduced drastically. I have been trying to have small projects kitted up to work on while baby is napping. Now I need to focus on a UFO RR project.

TUSAL and a Happy Dance



Here is my ort jar photo for the TUSAL. I also took a close up of the contents of my jar just because it looked pretty cool to me. :-P


Yay! Another finish! This is Messy...But Mine! by Dragon Dreams stitched on 28 ct. Sahara Flair Monaco from Enchanted Fabrics. To me, the fabric makes it seem like his treasure pile surrounds him so that's why I chose it. I sure miss Enchanted Fabrics. :-( I'm getting very close to running out of their fabrics in my stash. Oh well. All good things must come to an end.

Progress Photos


Here's Messy... But Mine. Hopefully the next photo of this will be a happy dance.


This is Mermaid Under the Sea. The colors in this photo are completly washed out. It looks *much* better in real life.

Atticus

I occurred to me that I hadn't yet posted any photos of my new Nephew, Atticus. So here he is! The best part is that when my Sis goes back to work, I get to babysit him! :-D





Don't ya love this last one? Hee hee!

UFO Round Robin Round 3


This is Theialin's My Lady's Chateau as I received it.



Here is what it looked like when I sent it on. I had meant to at least stitch the river on the other side but it just never happened.

More Progress


Here is Egyptian Pair or King Tut by Janlynn.



This is Woof Spoken Here by Stitchy Kitty. I used dmc that I had on hand and changed the dog's color a little to look like my dog. I stitched it on a scrap of Aida that I had laying around. I'm planning to put it on a scrapbook cover that will hold all of my pet photos. I was wanting to start something new but I knew that I shouldn't. So I picked out a small thing that I could finish in a day. It is also my first finish for this year.

Progress Photos

I've been trying to at least stitch for a couple of hours on some of my neglected wips. I'm trying to keep myself from starting anything new but I don't really think it's working.

This is Frog Pile by Design Works.


And this is Robin Hood by Little House Needleworks.
