24 for 2024 #3: One Thread Two Ways by Napa Needlepoint

I started this and just went on until finished. I think I will make it into a bookmark.

 

Filling in a Border

This is the foundation layer of a three layered composite stitch for the border filling. I do like how the middle showed up.

Another Chaparral Delay

Ordered this in November. It was -finally- shipped in late January, despite being in stock the whole time. I don't know what happened, but disappointed with Chaparral, since they did this to -two- of my orders.

 

24 for 2024 #4: Little Blue Mitten by Napa Needlepoint

Needless to say this isn't going to be blue. Cuff's almost done. The mitten part will be bigger bargello.

24 for 2024 #6: Gushing Oil Derrick by Patt and Lee Designs

This is part of a Texana series that came out last year. Getting around to it. Should be a fairly quick stitch once I get the derrick done.

Needlepointer Subscription Box

The Black Needle Society boxes were too full of liberal politics and had too few stitching items, so I've switched to the Needlepointer box. It comes quarterly and includes a full needlepoint kit and other things. I am much happier with this.



 

24 for 2024 #22: Green Argyle Mini Bauble by Eye Candy Art

Decided I should start some of the series I am subscribed to. This will be a very quick stitch once I put it on stretcher bars. Decided not to for the start because I don't know when I will get back to it and I don't like sagging.

Rangers Canvas

This was ordered along with the other canvas from Chaparral Needlepoint in November. It finally got here a couple of weeks ago after my wonderful husband bugged them repeatedly. We will not be shopping there again, despite them having a lot of great Texana. Can't trust them to ship.

Bluebonnet Ornament Kit

Well, this arrived a few months late because Chaparral didn't send it out. They gave me a project bag, but if Andreas hadn't followed up four times, it never would have come.

Autumn Ornament Done

My non-autumn-colored autumn ornament is done. Yay! I will be making it into something soon.

Diamonded

My Mexican Tile is finally on my rotation, and it looks like it might actually be a fairly quick stitch. I'm enjoying it.

Still Golden

Only gold right now on this. The finished piece will be in Ukrainian colors. Time to get cracking.

Little Needlepoint Octagon

After finishing this, I gave it to a lady who was retiring after working more than 40 years here at the Embassy in Poland. I hope she liked it.

Throwing Star Finished

One of the double delights all framed. I'm glad I found these frames. They fit beautifully.
