Dolphin Day 6

work yet again has me exhausted and not feeling like stitching but i did sit down for a day to work. this is what got done

Dolphins Day 5

working at this fairly slowly, life has been pretty hectic and my work hours are sporadic. anyways, day 5 of stitching!,

Dolphins Day 4

Starting to look a little more like a dolphin! I hope to have the dolphin fully complete and some, by my next post!

Dolphins Day 3

Still not much done. Work has been getting in the way of my free time, darn it! Haha. 

Dolphins Day 2

Not as much as I would have liked, but I ended up playing too many games of cards with my parents over the weekend! Hehe. Honestly, I think they might not want to play with me anymore, since I won every game. 😛

New Dimensions Project!

I know I shouldn’t start something new when I have kits laying around that are half done, but the picture we had hanging in our bathroom is ruined, and I wanted to stitch something to replace it! So, I had this kit laying around now for well over a year and decided I would start it, to replace the picture that had gotten ruined! ( seeing how our bathroom is a light blue color, this seemed perfect! ) Here is what I will be working on:

And, this is what I have done on Day 1:

Cozy Cub Complete

Well, after 8 months of work, it is finally complete. It was to be a present for my dad for his birthday last year but that never happened, so instead, it will be a gift for this years birthday! It’s stitched on 18ct ivory aida, and measures 5 x 7. It’s a Dimensions Gold Petites kit consisting off Cross Stitch, Half stitch back stitch and couching. ( This was my first time trying couching and found it a little challenging… in the whiskers. xD ) I hope you all like it!

It’s been a long time – so sorry!

It’s been so long since I last posted, and I must say I am a little disappointed in myself. I wanted to use this as a means to motivate myself for my stitching and here I have gone and forgotten my blog altogether. That’s a shame. Though it’s for good reason. Life has been busy, and while I don’t want to bore everyone with all of the details, the most recent and important news I have to share is that in April I will be an aunt for the very first time! My brother and his girlfriend are having a baby girl, and we all couldn’t be more excited. So, with the baby coming, and their new house, it’s kept me and everyone else rather occupied with renovations!

Now, on to my recently finished and current WIP’s!

Sailor Moon!

Just finished on the 22nd, and pressed and cleaned yesterday! 
She was stitched on 14ct aida, and took me about 10 months to complete.

Birth record I started a few weeks back for little Catherine. ( My soon-to-be- niece )

Cozy Cub kit I started a few months back for my dad for his birthday. 

A small Tuxedo Mask I started yesterday.

And, my mystery WIP. One I also just started yesterday and am trying on plastic canvas! 

Well, I think that is it for now, and I hope to post at least once a day with news, and WIP’s of at least one if not more than one of these projects! 😀 

WIP’s, and the reason I’ve been away.

So, I’ve been working a lot, which is most of the reason why I haven’t been around or able to stitch much, but also, I’ve been dealing with my mom’s horrible run-in with the law. Just a few days ago as well, she was in a car accident, so she’s kept my mood at an all time low, so my mood to cross stitch hasn’t really been there.

But anyways. I feel a bit better lately and have pulled out my Sailor Moon stitching projects.
Here is what I have so far! Mother and Daughter!

I hope to have Rini finished by the end of next week. 🙂

I’m Back!

For those of you who have been wondering why I’m not updating my blog… I’ve just had a lot going on, that’s all! I’ll start posting more pictures soon, for sure! So look forward to them!
