New Stitcher

Hi Ladies,

I just found ya’ll (by way of Lady Periphaeria)  This will be a good way to make sure I keep working on my large project.  The  finished size will be 20×32 inches and it is something I adapted from a 14th Century French tapestry.  It’s being stitched on 50ct evenweave over 2.  Here’s my progress so far — I’m on page 1 of 18.

Glad to be able to join you,

Crystal

White Lightening WIP

Hi Ladies

Sorry I didn’t work on Marquoir but I did work on my Mums Tiger for her Birthday, so here is a pics for all to see.

Few stitches later…

I didn’t achieve much, but noticing that I was away during the SAT and had things to do, people to meet and places to go I got some progress and that’s great - and I did stitch the models a bit.

From this to this:

Next month the Mother will have a face!

Colorful Kitty

Yea Me! This month’s SAT was successful in helping me to get out of my slump! Here is my wee happy dance.

June SAT Achievement

My progress after the June SAT:

I managed to complete one side, so one quarter of part 12 is done. 

My weekend’s progress…

If you checked out my blog, you’ll know how much I’d already stitched of this before the weekend started.  I stitched on Friday night as well as Saturday and Sunday.  I’m startled by how little I actually achieved in this time.  That said, here is my progress so far.  I finished part 1:

I’m working on 32ct white Jobelan over 2 using 1 strand of Carrie’s Creation thread in Serenity.

I’ve also started on part 2, which is stitched using 1 strand of Carrie’s in Over the Rainbow.

I’m hoping to get caught up with all this before part 3 comes out.

Tut and Lace

This weekend I managed to get a little done on King Tut

After Pic~

I also had a new start,I decided to do a little hardanger

This is called Lace Garden and is a design by Col’s Creations,

I did get a little more done but the dreaded frog came a visiting!!

Slump Be Gone!

I will be participating in this month’s SAT!  I have been in a bit of a slump lately, but I found a little pattern that I am going to try and stitch up over the weekend.  I just hope it gets me motivated to stitch again!

I’m back and raring to go!

I’ve been absent for over 6 months due to computer failure.  I’ve now got a new computer and I’m looking forward to joining in and seeing what everyone else is working on.

For this SAT, I’m going to be working on Lady P’s Spanish Sampler Mystery and also a new project which I’ve designed for my son’s form tutor.  I don’t have any pictures to share at the moment, but you can see my progress on SSM so far by visiting my blog - Stargazer’s Haven.

Hope you all reach your goals this month!

SAT goal for June

I missed last months SAT as I went on Holiday,but I hope to get lots and lots stitched this month, I haven’t decided which piece to stitch on yet, but will post before and after pics when I post next!

June SAT Goal

Hi, I haven’t taken part in the SAT for a while, but this week-end I’m back for the June SAT.

I plan to work on Chatelaine Mystery X, I have recently started with part 12 (the last part!).

Before pictures:

Happy stitching, everyone!

June Stitchathon

I missed last months’ stitchathon. I’m working on Saturday but I’ll do my best to get some stitching done. I think I’ll try to finish half a page on my HAED, Black Knight. That’s probably a bit ambitious but I’ll see how I go!

My Goal

Well, I’m back - after being away a long, long time.

I will be stitching on my Snappers from 2003. Trying to finish up old WIPs so I can start something new.

Let’s see how much I can do!

Lady P.’s June Goals

My intention is to count whole Thursday- Sunday period to SAT as I am away (i.e. at my mother’s cabin, no internet ) those days and I may not want to wait.

This is what I have now:

My goal is to finish page four (bush area) and work on mother’s face - and work on few small models in between everything.

Mia’s SAT goals

Hi!

My goal is to stitch a birthdaycard for the birthday exchange we have on the MSN Ristipistoilijat group.
Haven’t chosen a chart yet, but I’ll be stitching while what ever I come up with. We’re going away for the weekend, so I’ll be stitching at my brothers summercottage.

Hiya

I will be in with Marquoir again, I only have 4 more sections to go, I should have it completed next weekend woohooooooo.

Marquoir Update

Hi Everyone

This is what I have been working on again.  I have done a bit more since taking this pic, hoping to have it finished by the end of next week.

I have filled if parts 17 and 18 since taking this pic, and hoping to get the next few sections done before Sunday as we have family coming over.

YES! I did complete my modest goal for this month
by finishing this motif from “Rouge comme…”.
It may not look like much stitching, but there is a lot
of backstitching here. More on my blog.

Lady P.’s SAT success

The goal is met!

The colours remind me of Mexico, for some odd reason.

And… I managed to add some stitches to Loy Krathong after several months!
This is how it looked when I started, this is how it looks now:

Seaside sampler finished

I managed to finish the seaside sampler. I think I have to fix the herringbone stitches though.
