No Excuses...but I do have finishes!

I have two finishes from the month of April:

Pretty Little Amsterdam by Satsuma Street on Tarnished Silver by Under the Sea Fabrics with DMC

Happy Stitching by Sue Hillis on Lakeside Buttercream with DMC

Both stitches were a delight!

Happy Stitching Everyone!

WIPocalypse Check-in

The WIPocalypse check-in for February was on the 26th but I am still within the Timeframe in my eyes.  This month I finished Pretty Little Toronto by Satsuma Street.

Other than that, I didn't work on any of my projects. I was able to have 2 other finishes - Celtic Twizzle and Paris.

My Hope for March is that I will have time to work on some other projects and make some noticeable progress :)

The Question for this month is : What is your favorite Stitch besides the standard cross stitch?
Answer: This one was funny for me as I haven't done a lot of Specialty stitches. But I have done variations on the Algerian Eyelet and loved it. This link will take you to the Krenik Website that has some nice diagrams in their How-To Section.

I was going to say half cross stitch as I love the variations in color/texture it gives to a piece but that seemed to be a cop-out.

Pretty Little Italy Finish!

I was able to finish Pretty Little Italy early Saturday morning!

It was stitched on Tarnished Silver from Under the Sea Fabrics with the called for DMC Floss. It was a relatively easy stitch.

I started a Halloween stitch for my next project called Patterned Pumpkin from Cross Eyed Cricket. It seems to be going well also. It will be my concentration for the next few weeks.

Next in line in this series is Pretty Little Italy I think. I am also working on a Lizzie and Katie for a change. I also realize ornies need to get started to make sure they are completed in time for the holidays.

Pretty Little Paris Complete!

So I have been stitching even if I haven't been so great about posting.  I finished another Pretty Little City ---- PARIS!

I used the called for DMC and Tarnished silver Evenweave from Under The Sea Fabrics!

I am taking the next month to organize myself (including inventory all patterns and fabric, yarn, floss, etc.) I am also evaluating all of my Goals for the year as I am not sure I have set myself up well.

More to come on Quilting finishes as I have a top complete and A quilting weekend with my aunt coming up.!

Pretty Little Chicago - Satsuma Street

I have been traveling a lot for work and have been dealing with a potential identity compromise as well so it has been a trying few weeks hence no posting. It will continue to be that way for the next few months but I will post as I can. I have also been organizing my craft room and will post pics as soon as I have it done.

Happy stitching everyone!

Finished!!! Pretty Little DC - Satsuma Street

I just wanted to drop a pic of the finished Pretty Little DC by Satsuma Street on 32 ct. Lugana in Tarnished Silver by Under the Sea Fabrics. I used the called for DMC colors.

Happy stitching this week!!

New start Progress

I started Pretty little Washington DC by Satsuma Street on 32 Ct. Lugana in Tarnished Silver by Under the Sea Fabrics. I love this Fabric as it mimics a sky on a Cloudy day.

It is a total easy stitch and Super Cute. I already have New York, Chicago, and San Francisco kitted up and ready to go. My Plan is to stay on this one until I finish her. Should be by the end of this week.

Happy Stitching Everyone!
