A finish & a start!!

Last night was a good night as I finally finished up PSS Morning Bird

This is my #3 finish for 2009! Wow even I am impressed with myself! But then I don't have much of a life, so I stitch with all my free time! And of course as much as I can when my pain is under control for the time! I stitched this PSS design over 2 threads on 28ct mushroom colored evenweave, with DMC floss! I can't wait to get this framed and up for everyone to see, I really should start framing my finishes, if I did I could probably fill a couple of walls! Yeah, its been awhile since I framed , I just keep adding the finishes to my very full tub I have just for them!
I had enough fabby left over from Morning Bird, so I started Midnight Stitching Quaker Faith Hope Love design

I received this chart, fabby and Sampler Threads from my secret sister Donna)thank you again!) I hope she sees my blog so she can see my stitching!
I also wanted to share a few pictures of my kitties, as they lounge and nap, only to be disturbed by me trying to snap a picture of them! LOL I want to come back as a cat in my next life! I think I already have the napping part down! :)
Here is Jinx, she was actually sleeping in the "cat bed" , go figure! LOL

And here is Peek-a-Boo, I bothered him while lounging in "My" bed?? Or is it his bed? LOL

And last but not least, is Samantha, who unless she opens her eyes, she is just a blob of black! The picture makes her look like an alien cat! Wonder what happened while I wasn't here? LOL

Ok, well I am off to stitch a bit more before bed, and I may just have another finish to show off tomorrow, as this quaker is stitching up quickly!

Oh So Close.......

Yay! I finally stopped and took a pic of my PSS Morning Bird progress! This pic is from last night, and I am oh so close to being done! I have'nt stitched on it today as of yet, so maybe if I can get my act together today with my errands and such, I will be able to finish this up and have another finish for 2009!!

I just added a Sales/Trade album link here on my blog, so if you are looking for something to stitch have a look! I am trying to collect 123 GC to buy hand dyed floss for a couple of LHN&CCN charts I have!!
So off to start another week. I have a doctors appt tomorrow and will hopefully then have a new doctor to take over my pain management! The in between visits to non supporting docs who dont take my insurance and a trip to the ER are not fun, and I just want to be back on a regular pain management schedule, and not run out of medicines!!!
I hope everyone had a great weekend, it is actually sunny here today, though still chilly. The sunshine goes a long way to lift peoples spirits and makes happier people!! Ok so I am off to get stuff done around here so I can sit and stitch this evening and hopefully will have a finish to show you tomorrow!!

My Morning Bird Progress

Well, its been 2 days since I last posted a wip of PSS Morning Bird, and now that I am feeling better, I have made lots of progress on it and I finally made it down to the trees part! I am so enjoying this, and it really is hard to put down, like a good book, up til the wee hours of the morning, losing track of time!








I am looking forward to Friday, when I can either post to the Friday "Wip's" or "finishes" thread at 123 Stitch



If you have never been to this MB or cross stitch site, you really should check it out! I have met the nicest people there and made some really good friendships too! Maybe I will see you over there!


Well I am off to stitch a bit more, though not sure how long I can stay awake tonight as I didn't get a nap today!


Happy Stitching!

Big progress on Cantata

Well, I have made great progress on WBTW Cantata, since getting the threadworx thread from Eileen, Thanks so much! This is my first time using this thread and I have to say it is a joy to stitch with, and the colors are so rich and bold! This might be the reason I am loving stitching this! And now I am almost done, hoping to be done by the weekend, maybe sooner.........unless you know! I start something new before that! LOL Well, you will have to check back to see what happens.... :)
