My 2 Works in Progress

To go along with remodeling the house I have thrown in some crafts to do in my down time. I'm currently working on this tinkerbell paperbag album. I am loving the way the flower turned out after all the work I put into it. It was easier than I thought. And I'm working on a halloween cross stitch freebie that I don't have a picture of because I just started it. There will be more to come though!

Some Quaker WIPs Day 1

I currently added 2 new projects to my WIP rotation. This is my progress for day one of stitching. The top design is Quaker Alphabet by Carriage House Samplings and the bottom design is A Quaker Clock by Samplers and Such. (I am not making it into a clock though).

Monochrome Finish and a WIP

I am almost done stitching the top one. I just need to dig a couple colors out of my floss box and do a border a squirrel and a tree. Below is my monochrome finish that I just love. And I did it in of course blue because it is my favorite color. I only have a few other projects in my WIP pile and have 3 more projects kitted up. I will kit up 2 more when I finish this wip.

3rd Day of Stitching

Wow can't believe it's only been 3 days of stitching on this. I love this piece. With thousands of skeins of threads I don't have a color I need. Surprise there huh. Anyway besides being out of a couple colors I just need to finish up the flower and move to the other side. I have a few more pieces kitted up that I took pictures of. Can't wait to share them.

My favorite color is blue so this has been fun to stitch. I'm not much of a bird person but this freebie screamed "stitch me". I stitch on it here and there when I want something I don't have to change colors on. I still have the other bird and some berries left.

This one has proven to be a PITA piece. I'm stitching over 1 and messed up. I started to frog it and put it down not to touch it for months. I've already dug it out and just need a swift kick in the rear to get it going.
