Voice of the Sea Progress

Figured I would pop in with an update on the Voice of the Sea piece. I finished the first panel yesterday and got a good start on the 2nd panel...
 
The red outline is where I will put the two panels together.

Monday Update

After working on Beach Blessings during my stitching retreat the piece kept calling to me to be finished up. I put 2 days into working on my Grandpa's Family Crest and then went back to work on Beach Blessings. I started it for the Jan DUCJC Day #25. Here it is all finished up...
Beach Blessings by Erica Michaels
Adaptation of her Beach Blessings Chart with different border for 2015 PALs Retreat
Fabric 36ct Molino Solo Evenweave
Threads 7 Gentle Art and 2 DMC 1 strand over 2
Started Jan 25, 2016 for DUCJC Took 9 Days

I really enjoy working with the Gentle Art threads. I also enjoyed working on 36ct since you can only use 1 thread over 2. I plan to finish it into a little display pillow. After finishing this one up I picked up another PALs piece. Here is what it will look like...
It's another one I started for DUCJC Day #30. Here is my 2nd Day progress...
Almost finished the one side. Just need to finish the red outline for putting it together and attach the charm.

My mom's arm is still healing. It is slowly getting better she can at least move it a bit. I still feel way behind. I need to take a day and catch up on my blog reading. I miss seeing everyone's beautiful work. The laundry is finally mostly caught up on. What a stupid thing. You do it and then turn around and have new laundry to do. Kind of like dishes. Oh well guess we all have to keep doing it don't we?

DUCJC Day 30

Today's pick is back to the beach. Here is another PALs Exclusive...
This was the 2014 Hands on Design exclusive. Here is my start on it...
We did some errands today so my time was shorter than normal. I really needed my haircut. Ended up we had some other errands to run so Fred took me out. I went to the teacher store and got several new Math work books for Jeremiah's school work. We've been finishing our other books up. The new ones look fun but very educational so I'm glad I found them. Fred even had fun helping me pick them out.

Tomorrow is the last new start. It's another fun beach piece with a neat way of finishing....Hmm enough teasing?! I keep thinking Ohh what will I work on Monday. I'm pretty sure my brain is going to explode. I have so many wonderful choices. It's torture to decide.
