Weekly Update and Haul

Happy Memorial Day! I hope you all have had a great holiday weekend.

I was able to work on two projects this past week. The first one is Medieval Town Mandala by Chatelaine.

I also worked on Gothic Cross by Heaven and Earth Designs and was able to get quite a bit done.

And now for haul-I got some pretty great stuff this past week.

The first two selections in the American Series.

I purchased fabric for this project as I am going to stitch all 9 on one piece of fabric.
This is 32 count Tin Roof.

I got two pieces of this blue and white gingham that I am going to use for a Wizard of Oz pattern that I got out of a magazine. I apologize that I can't show the pattern as I only have the actual pattern and not a picture of the finished project. I am stitching this twice, ond for me and one for a friend.

Isn't this fabric fantastic?! I saw someone that had used this fabric and stitched a mermaid on it and I thought I need that too!

I hope this week is great for you all and you find time to get some stitches in.

Weekly Update

I think I should call this monthly update since I haven't posted in about a month. I was a bit under the weather and so was my husband, then it seemed like so much going on that I just didn't get to the blog. I have also lost my stitchy bug a bit. I want to stitch but everything I pick up just seems to not want me to work on it. I am sure hoping I get my I want to stitch vibe back really soon.

I did start two new projects in hope that it would help.
This is Gothic Cross by HAED.

The completed project will look like this.

I have had this project for a long time but it has intimidated me. I decided that it was time to start it.
Medieval Town Mandala by Chatelaine.

The completed project will look like this.

I hope you are having a great stitchy time and getting lots of projects completed. I do have some haul on the way and I will post that as soon as I get it.

Weekly Stitching and Haul

Happy Tuesday Ya'll! This sun is shining bright here today and should be in the upper 70's. I am so excited the weather is getting nice and will be decorating my porch in flowers soon.

Since I finished two projects recently, I thought I should reward myself with a new start. I saw this hanging in an LNS about 20 years ago and knew I had to stitch it and I should not have waited so long. This is Angel of Love by Lavender and Lace.

I joined a round robin group on facebook and my mini introductory round is finished so I was able to join a large round for May. I actually joined two but only have one project to show you this week. The first one is a Band Sampler and I wanted mine to start off with an alphabet. I may add some vines and flowers around the alphabet, but I haven't yet decided just what I want to use. I am very excited about this as I am a big fan of band samplers and I can't wait to see what everyone adds to my piece.

I also joined one that is a Lizzie Kate theme and I have chosen Dog Rules for People. I will be able to show my start on it next week.



I got my first RAK this past week from a friend of mine. Gothic Cross by Heaven and Earth Designs. I did purchase the thread over the weekend and I already had fabric that would work, I plan to start this soon.

I don't have alot this week but hope you enjoy this post!
