Autumn Peace update

It's coming along!! I've only got 4 partial pages left to a finish! (3 half pages and a quarter, so 1 full and 3 quarter pages!) I have really enjoyed working on this! I'm so behind on Blogging this year!! I cannot believe it's been nearly 2 months since I last blogged! (ok, it's been 2 months and a day!)  I have a new start, and progress on  few pieces. I will have another new start tomorrow.( I joined the full Coverage Fanatics FB group, so that is why I have so many new starts, to go along with the various SAL themes.) Tomorrow I will be starting Moonlight Bay, by Kustom Krafts.

It looks like this:



I'm super excited to start it! I love all the blues in this chart!!

Thank you for reading, Happy Easter, if you celebrate!! And I will try to get back here again to share what I've been up to again, before too long!

Autumn Peace update

 As you can see....I got my page finish on page 8 of this one!! I finished it on November 21st, and then continued onto page 9:

And here's where I got to on this one. I am STILL LOVING this one SO much! I love the colors, and it's fun, although, I have to admit this last month I have had a bit of frustration with the amount of confetti in this one, it really slows down progress. I'm just glad I really enjoy it so much!

Hope you had a beautiful Christmas!! (If you celebrate)  I pre post all my blogs, so as you can see I'm posting this on the 10th, so Christmas hasn't happened for me yet, but when this goes up I will have and I'm sure it is gonna be a great day!!

Holy cow! only 6 more days until 2018!!

DS2N....I'm on a roll!

I was able to "finish" this page (page 9) and I now only have two full pages left to finish this piece!! So exciting.  Oh I say "Finished" because there is some white I still need to put in, but I ran out of the color, so for the most part, it IS done, but since I couldn't do anything more, I decided to just move on

 to....this:

Page 7.  Just a small start, but I'm so excited, this project is almost done...sorta...2 huge pages is still ALOT of stitching left to do, but when compared to the 9 I started with I say I'm gettin' close! LOL
 thank you for reading! Hope you had a great month of September, and I will see you next month!

Happy Stitching!

Autumn Peace....Update

I did it! I did it!  I finished page 7!!!!  Look! It's a tree!!!

Thank you for reading!! Happy stitching!

DS2N update

I was able to get a good chunk of work in on this one, tis time! I finished page 6! (Which was my goal, I'm pretty sure) and have moved down to page 9, I'm almost finished with this first column of the page. I'm starting to enjoy working more on this one, now, as you can see that the color palette has changed from all the light cream/whites of the day angel's wing, to much darker tones, which I am really enjoying quite a bit more! 

So, we will see how far I can get with this one by the next time I update!

Thank you for reading! Have a great day!

Autumn Peace update!

 I was able to finish page 6 in June ! WOW!

 And make a good start on page 7!!

This one is the one I most like to work on! I just love all the colors! I pick it up and never want to set it back down!  Which is good, since it's a gift for my mom, and I would like to have it done for her birthday next year....we'll see if that happens.  (Her birthday is the end of April, so still got quite a bit of time.) However since it DID take an entire year to finish the first row of 5 pages and I still have two more rows of pages to finish I'm not sure how realistic it is to reach that goal. Although, I'm already on the 2nd page of this row of 5 pages, and the fist and 5th pages are only half pages, and the bottom row is made up of close to half pages I think, so it may be doable!

Giving myself a goal of a 10x10 block everyday really seems to help me stay on track!

Hope you're all doing well! We'll see you tomorrow for my last update of this month!

Autumn Peace progress!

Well!! I did it!! I finished page 5 of this monster!!! 5 down,10 more to go!!!  I finished my first row of pages on this, it feels so good!! It took me nearly a year to finish this row. I started it June 1 of 2016 and finished May 28 2017.  I always love page finishes, and row finishes, as it kinda feels like a milestone reached, a little finish, you know? That there is 19,688 stitches done!!

And!! Not only did I finish page 5, but I got a GREAT start on page 6!!

Here's that progress:

So! I guess you could say my stitch bug is back!!! I am hoping to have a page finish on 6 by my next post, and I'm pretty sure its gonna happen!

Thank you for stoppin' by!! Happy stitching!!

Autumn Peace....Another Page Finish!

So! Pages 1,2, and 3 are now finished! And page 4 has a tiny bit of a start. There is a ton of black in page 4, so I hope that 1) it goes fast, all those large chunks of the same color, and 2) I don't get bored of stitching black for what will seem like forever! 

My goal for this one for this month is to finish the first 4 columns of page 4, so we shall see if I do it by the time I post again! 

I hope you're all having a great day! Thanks for stopping by!

Autumn Peace....a page finish!!

I did it! I finished p. 3 and went back and started working on p. 1.
Here it is now:

Sorry, it's not the greatest picture. But, I was happy to get another page finish on this, and get started on p. 1. It's slow, but getting done.

Thank you all for reading, hope you have a great day!

Another "finish!!

I finished DS2N page 2- FINALLY!! 

So! This one is just moving along! Next I will be sharing Flower Bride. See yah in about 5 days!

Woo hoo!

Page 2 is FINISHED!!! 

Now I'm going to move down and start page 4. I'm just going to keep working on this piece throughout the month. 

The next time it comes up in my rotation is in mid February, but that's around my daughters birthday and my mom will be here for 2 weeks so I'm not anticipating a whole lot of stitching time then, so thought I'd keep working on it now, to make up for then. (If that makes sense) 

Hope you have a great weekend! 

Flower Bride...page 1? Done!

Last time I posted:

Today, 5 days later:

I love that you can really see the sparkly kreinik in this photo! I can't believe I finished page 1!!! This is really only the product of two days of stitching. As Sunday was Fathers Day, so was busy and didn't touch it. Then Monday and Tuesday I never picked it up as I had to have some tests done at the clinic and was there for two hours both those days then had headaches afterwards so was unable to work on it then! 

So! My 2nd HAED page finish for the year! I'm knocking them out! I'm really happy/proud of my progress so far! 

So! 7,840 stitches done, 19,520 more to go!!! 

Thank you for reading and especially for all the encouragement and lovely comments spuring me on throughout my journey on these BAPs! 

Oh! I almost forgot! Alyssa wanted to model my stitching for me, so here she is!

Wow! I really need to hit this thing up with an iron! (The stitching, not the kid!)

I did it!!

I finished the page!! Right now, at 10 pm the 10th of June! Cutting it close, but I did it!

You know what that means? It's time to pull out HAEDs "Flower Bride". Yippee!!! 

I wonder if I can get a page finish on it by months end? Hmm... We will see! Wish me luck! 

See yah in about 5 days with an update on Flower Bride!

That was FAST!

I have another page finish!! I really thought it would take me Much longer. 

As it looked when I picked it up yesterday:

Today after a few hours work of back stitch:

And now!! I get to pull out Sea of Roses and finish page 1 of it. I'm guessing it will take about 2-3 weeks as I'm more than half way done with it. We shall see! Thank you for reading! See yah On Cinco De Mayo! 

I did it!!!!

I got my page finish!!! 2 days before my goal!! 

Now I will be putting this one away and pull out "Web of Life" and finish page 1 (out of 4). I'm guessing it won't take long. Probably between 1 and 2 weeks to finish, then I'll move onto Sea of Roses.  I'm so glad I've decided to do a page by page rotation. It feels good to have a page finish within a month!! Doing it by my previous rotation system it wouldn't have been done for 6 months!! I love seeing so much progress in such a short time. 

Thank you for reading!! See yah in about a week!!!
