Weekly Stitching

Good Morning everyone! I am glad to be back today and all the moving is almost done. We had planned on getting the remaining items moved over the weekend but my husband was a bit under the weather so it will wait until next Saturday. However, I was able to get quite a bit of stitching in over the weekend and I am so glad. It was nice to relax and watch netflix and flosstube while stitching for many hours. So, I will get started here showing what I worked on.

I had started the 4th ornament in the Brooke's Books Advent Animals and I am almost finished. I only need to stitch the border.



This is a picture of 272 Words the last time I posted a pic of it.




This picture shows the progress I made this past weekend.



I also worked on the Giant Harry Potter by CloudsFactory. The first picture shows the small start I had posted the last time.




This picture shows my progress. I do have to frog out the last blue motif on the right side. I was frustrated so just put it away yesterday and will rip out the next time I pick it up.





I do have a small amount of haul but failed to take pictures so I will get that up later this week. A stitcher had posted on one of the facebook stitch groups a couple of weeks ago about having found magnetic boards at Target for $3. After work that day, I ran to our local Target but they did not have them. My mom was able to find them at hers, so I had her to get me two of them. I added some of my needleminders to one of them over the weekend. I should be able to fill up both of them by the time I unpack all of my minders. I had been looking around for awhile and was so excited to learn about these. I think I might wish I had purchased a couple more.




What have you been stitching on? And how do you display your needleminders? I hope you all have a great stitchy week.

    Everything is coming along so nicely. Glad your moving is almost over. Hope your Hubby gets to feeling better. I haven't been doing much stitching, but I have been crocheting doilies. Wishing you a lovely day. ((hugs))

    Your big HP is coming along and I love that little scotty dog :) My minders are on a framed magnetic board from HB, I put them at the top (I don't have very many) and it sits right by my stitching chair and I put my chart on it too so that it's not flying all over the place :)

      Thanks so much for your comment! I am in love with the Brooke's Books ornaments and each one becomes my new favorite as I stitch it.
