Old UFO now a WIP

I found another UFO that I was hoping to finish before this Xmas, well that is not going to happen, but I did bring it out last night.




So far this past week I worked on four of my UFO's.  I have set my stitiching rotation Bagatelle, Athena, Pretty Pumpkins, Village of Hawk Run Hollow and A Quaker Christmas.  I have determined that most of my projects are large, which means I don't have a lot of finishes.  I used to work on one project at a time, but decided have the fun was buying and kitting up the project and starting it.  And after all isn't this supposed to be fun.  Thanks goodness this is not my job or I would be starving....haha

Happy Haloweeeen!!


Yes, I did go out and purchase a Haloween costume for my Yorkie, Vegas. He really does not like wearing it. I think he would prefer to eat the tail. Here is a picture that I would not be able to capture again if I tried.




I bet you thought he was a mouse!!  He is supposed to be a monkey!  Happy Haloween!!

Not that I need anything else to stitch, but I was wondering if anyone has this pattern or kit that they would be willing to part with?  It is an OOP design by Candamar Designs called "Teapot Stack".  Just thought it was very whimsical, and I love the colors.

Progress on Quaker Christmas

I finally decided to put some time into "Quaker Christmas".  I don't think I have worked on it since last year at this time.  Remember I have been trying to stitch on something different each night, well I have to admit I did work on this for two nights. 



Going to pull something out of my WIP's to work on tonight.  Maybe the Village oft Hawk Run will call me.  I will try and post and updated picture of VOHR tomorrow.

Stitching rotation

I decided to try a stitching rotation to complete my WIP's or at least make a dent on them.  Last night I set the "Pretty Pumpkins" aside and picked up "A Quaker Christmas" by By Gone Stitches.  I will post a picture either later today or tomorrow of my progress.  Now what should I work on tonight, that is the question?  I have "Village of Hawk Run Hollow" by Carriage House Samplings, "Marquoir Bleu et Rouge" by Gigi and Carinne, "Athena Goddess of Wisdom" by Mirabilia or "Summer Ball" by Sandy Littlejohn.  FYI that is not all my WIP's, if I could just finish one of them that would be great.  So check back tomorrow and I will share which one I chose to work on and share my progress.

Progress on Pretty Pumpkins


This is my recent picture of my progress on "Pretty Pumpkins" by Glendon Place.  I am really trying to stick with this one with a lot of other projects calling me.  Hopefully this weekend I will be able to spend more time on it.
