I’ve got another framed piece to share. As always, I was very excited to pick it up. After secretly collaborating with the recipient’s sister, I was excited to learn that the baby’s room colour scheme was almost exactly what was in this project. So, I decided I would focus on either a pastel yellow, pastel … Continue reading
Girl with Flower Balloon (Updated)
I cannot tell you how excited I was to see activity on my framer’s Facebook page. I thought he had closed up shop for good. And, I cannot tell you how many times I’ve had to find him, but it’s worth it, because he does a great job, and he’s always the most affordable of … Continue reading
Lickle Ted ~ A Windy Day
Lickle Ted ~ A Windy Day by DMC Is there anything better than a finish? Yes, there is. A framed finish. Ha ha! Kidding. I’m happy to be sharing another finish with you. I removed/blurred the birth announcement info/text for privacy reasons. I will try to obtain permission to post the desired photo once I … Continue reading
Girl with Flower Balloon
Girl with Flower Balloon by Elena Averina This has been a long time coming. I’m happy to report I have another finish. Finally. I tend to just completely set aside most of my cross-stitch in the summer. I prefer to spend my time outdoors or at the gym. For the fabric, I purchased an 18 … Continue reading

Lickle Ted ~ A Windy Day Progress No. 2

Sometimes I leave it untouched for a very long time. During my times of actual stitching, I did manage to make progress on … Continue reading
Lickle Ted ~ A Windy Day Progress No. 1
Hello, everyone! It’s been a while. I haven’t been stitching much, which is odd, because with the quarantine lock-downs, you’d think I would be taking advantage of the down time. I’ve been spreading my time between reading, online training, and being a slouch. Just recently, I decided to throw my cross-stitch back into rotation. I’m … Continue reading
Stargazer Progress No. 3
It’s been a while since I’ve posted an update on my daughter’s project. She made a bit of headway with it for a while and then put it down again. Since then, she hasn’t touched it, which is a shame. She could have blasted through this during the COVID lock down while there was nothing … Continue reading
Scissor FOB
My dragonfly scissor FOB broke. I’m kind of sad about it. I really liked it. You know what happens when something breaks? You either fix it or replace it. And, since I don’t really know how to fix it, I bought a new one. I found my latest acquisition from the Those Crazy Ladies Etsy … Continue reading
March 2020 IHSW
This month’s participation in the International Hermit & Stitch Weekend was quite easy due to COVID and self-isolation requests. To get the full ISHW details, click here. I continued to work on the tree and the tree skirt. I must admit I spent way too much time procrastinating about how I was going to … Continue reading
