Finishes, FFOs and progress

I'm not doing so well with this regular blog post thing am I?
I will do better.

It's been a bit hectic here, but I've managed to get some stitching and sewing in here and there..and even a finish or 5.
First I have a sewing finish.


Don't get too excited, it's still stitching related lol!

On the front, I used vintage doilies,  buttons, "pearl" beads and an applique. I used the rest of the doily from the front for the back.

I designed this for small projects, but there are so many pockets, at the moment there are 3 in it. My current 2 ornaments a month wips, and a cute little Chessie & me kit (from my stitch 9 list)

Next, is my first fully finished  #2amonthsal ornament!

It's kind of a mystery project (I don't remember what chart, or the designer) on a mystery aida (I *think* it was 14ct) that I hand dyed aqua.

Below are my 3 additional finishes.


1. Triton's Treasures by  The Stitching Parlor. It was also stitched on a mystery Aida, also hand dyed by me.

3. The cat from Halloween Spot by The Drawn Thread





With so many wips, it's not really feasible to update them all in this post. I guess I will just have to post more eh? 

This time, how about an update on 1 of them?

Silent Sampler by Rosewood Manor has seen some good progress..I changed the colors, I wanted a "washed out" color palette. I will be aging it when I've completed it.

Today I've been working on some sewing, and hopefully I will be able to continue tomorrow, but we will have to see what the days brings.


Until next time,
Happy Stitching!
