I can’t even believe it. I finished 34 projects (Or segments of bigger projects) last year. Now not all of them were started in 2018 so don’t be so impressed and think I started AND finished that many in one year! Or even suppose that all the final finishing was done! And yes most of …
Small Finish Small WIP
This past weekend I finished up the American Goldfinch kit from Crossed Wing Collection for my mom’s birthday present. While it sure is cute, it is hard to sustain the micro stitching for long. Good thing it’s a little project! I finished it in a Tim Holtz watch fob like I did with my cardinal …
Baby Celebration Celebration!
Hooray! My Baby Celebration is finished! I added the last name after the picture for privacy. Fortunately with such long first and middle names the last name is short! And now on to the November goal: Random Thoughts.
October 2018 Smalls SAL
I finished up Mr. Nutley Owl by Just Nan for this month’s Smalls SAL. Here he is! Isn’t he darling? I can see why these designs are addicting. It is just SO cute! I also finished up my Christmas Ornies SAL project for this month’s theme “O Christmas Tree.” This is the Christmas Tree Scissors …
Fall Break Finishes
I live in Arizona as maybe you notice when I mention it occasionally and in October we are usually experiencing 90+ degree days regularly right up to Halloween. Ugh, right??!! Although it seems like this year has been a bit cooler than normal, our family still wanted to escape the end of summer heat and …
A La-D-Da-A-Thon!
I have been working on 4 La-D-Da designs this past week. And because I have one more in my “Do in 2018” pile and another on the way, neither of which I can justify starting without a finish, I needed a La-D-Da-A-Thon! But lest you think I neglected the Just Nan birth record (Baby Celebration) …
Some days of concentrated effort
I’ve indulged in a lot of daytime stitching and late nights. I should get more sleep…I should clean my house but…well, I’m sure you understand! Plus I started a new audiobook so what can I do??? I completed the bottom part of Lazy Alphabet: There is a solid navy line around the whole which I …
New Things, Finished Things
I just couldn’t help myself. I had to start a few more projects! They all came out of my “do in 2018” pile and I figured if I don’t go ahead and get them started in 2018, they don’t even have any hope of being done in 2018! I’ve also been working on more finishing …
A Couple Smalls for July
I’m linking up with Heather of Stitching Lotus for our monthly Smalls check in! I got all the beads on Star Santa, as perhaps you expected! Do you remember this Threedles design from a while ago? I found the beads I needed on clearance at JoAnn’s so I got that done too! So fancy! I …
In the good old summertime
Here in Arizona it is hot, hot, hot! The heat really saps my energy! And, with the kids’ summer activities, I don’t have blocks of time for stitching, alas! However I do snatch moments here and there on a variety of small projects. Little by little it adds up, and I realize have quite a …
