3rd Halloween Sweatshirt Finished

I finished the 3rd of my 4 Halloween sweatshirt finishes this morning.  Bob says the design is to small for the sweatshirt.  I like it.

I started this on 2/16/2011 and completed it on 2/20/2011

Pictures of my WIP

Here are pictures of my 2 current WIP as of today.  I am on hold on both of these projects.  My LNS only had 2 of floss I needed for the Quaker Welcome and Perched On A Pumpkin needs 2 more bat buttons but they are on back order at 123 Stitch.  Guess I will start my 3rd sweatshirt since I can't go any further with these 2.

2011 Christmas Ornaments for Grand Nieces and Nepher

I took a couple of hours this afternoon and finished the ornaments for Kayla, Matt, Emily, Laura, Hannah and Jessi for Christmas 2011.  Yeah it is only February and I have their ornaments all ready to go.

use instead of stitching them.  Hope the buttons work.

A Finish

I finished this yesterday afternoon.  Sorry it isn't a very good picture.  I am considering making it into a pillow.  I would love to have it framed but it gets expensive framing all the things I stitch.

Lizzie Kate - 4th of July

My friend, Sue, hosts her family's 4th of July picnic every year so she asked me to stitch her a patriotic themed cross-stitch and make it into a No-Sew Cube.  Here is the finished results.

Now I just need to figure out a way to ship it to her in Virginia and not have the bow get smooched.

It is a dreary day here.  We had some freezing rain overnight and we are suppose to get more again tonight.  Keeps me at home and not running around spending money I don't have. lol
