UFO RR Progress

Here are the Before and After pics of Arthenice's (Catherine) Spring Angel. I was hoping to at least finish the top wing but as I've said before, it's been very hard getting any stitching done.

TUSAL

I think the new moon is tomorrow but I'm going to go ahead and post my TUSAL photo tonight since I don't expect to get much stitching time in before then. It doesn't look like there has been much of a change but that's due to the fact that I've been using the same color, white, all month. Hopefully I'll be adding some other colors to it next month.

Chickens!

We have finally gotten some chicks. We got 6 Rhode Island Reds, 2 Barred Rocks, and 1 Americana. The Barred Rocks (the black ones) are so adorable that I'm thinking we should have gotten more of them.

We have also started working on our garden as well. It's starting to sound like I will have a busy summer doesn't it? Ha ha.

I have not done much stitching lately as you can tell by the lack of updates. What little I have done was on a RR which I still need to do some more on as the mailing date is quickly approaching. I'm having a little trouble with managing my stitching time now that I work 6 days a week. I'm sure I'll figure it out though. No worries.

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!
