Way behind on posting

Hello All, I am sorry for not posting in a while here. Work has been really busy and what spare time I could find in the evenings , I have been stitching. Picture Heavy-

Luminaria Lane by Hands On Design. I have chose my own colors for this and may stitch it again but  with called for colors(DMC) at another time.

Stocking #1 Winter Wildlife Christmas pages 1 & 2 done. I'll start on page 3 when it comes up in rotation.

Stocking #2 Celtic Christmas. Next band up in 3 large stars so far it's been an easy stitch. I have changed and will change some of the colors as I continue stitching.

Stocking #3 Christmas Eve. Also a easy stitch. I am using the called for colors DMC. Top floor and 2nd bedroom finished.

Next up is a finish. Lady Liberty 1776 by Shelly Auen of Primitive Stitchin. You can find her shop on Etsy @ Primitive Stitchin
I also have Uncle Sam 1776 as well I am planning on starting soon.

This is stitched on Osnaburg Linen I found at my local Hobby Lobby, lots of fuzz on it but it stitched up fine 1 over 2

Plan to start "Peace on Earth" by Cottage Garden Samplings. you can find the shop @ Cottage Garden Samplings
I'll be stitching it using DMC Threads and maybe a couple of changes. I have yet to decide. Will be stitched on My own hand dyed fabric 14 ct. Aida Pearl Grey, it's a little darker than the pic.

Next plan is to finally finish these 2 Cardinals into little pillows with this fabric and ricrac I found at Hobby Lobby.

That's all for now. I hope this finds everyone doing well and staying cool
Happy Stitching and May you have smokin' needles...xxx

June Update

Hello friends!

June update time!  Life wise I have started my new job.  It is going fairly well.  I work Wednesdays and Saturday mornings which is nice so I can plan around those 2 days each week.  The boys are on summer vacation and they have both started soccer.  So that is keeping us busy too.  Other than that life is pretty quiet.  Now onto the stitching!

I participated in a "Choose my wip" sal so I only had four wips this month, which was very strange but much better for progress.

First up was Halloween Rules by LizzieKate which looked like this last month -

And now looks like this.  I was so close to finishing this block, just need to add the word "mummy".  Even though that is clearly a skeleton...

Next up was Friendship Grows by LizzieKate which looked like this last month - 

And now it is finished!

Week 3 was Hannah Lynn by Heaven and Earth Designs turn.  Last month she looked like this - 

And now she is here.  I am into the blue at the top so not much to go until I have this row finished!

And lastly I stitched on Deepest Love by Mirabilia.  Last month she looked like this -

And now -

And that is it.

Happy Canada Day and 4th of July and whatever else you may be celebrating!

Happy Stitching!
