Edging Along


Shells on the border are what I got done on this piece this week. They're looking pretty good. Now to get those starfles done next and start the huge Jessica band...

Another Correspondence Course

The due date for this one, Algerian Eye to Czar, is the middle of October. After working on it this week and already frogging quite a bit, I can confidently say it's not going in on time. This is one of those things that just got away from me this summer.

The piece itself is a group correspondence course through EGA which I am taking via Cyberstitchers. I've changed canvas size, colors, and type of thread, but what's hardest for me is counting in this one for some reason. I'll get it done, but I'm not going to stress about it like I was earlier this week.

Honeydew it to me one more time...


More honeydew, but I've come to see this color as wrapping up an area and saying time ot move on. I'm getting there on this, slowly, sure, but getting there. Maybe I can have this part done by Christmas.

Matching Up

I started part three and it seems to be matching up with what I did of part two, so I'm a bit less uncertain now. I'll complete part three before finishing off part two. The colors seem to be blending well with the fabric still.

Not Quite There


I actually finished this thick band after the picture was taken. I feel a bit bogged down on this project and it's not really exciting me at the moment. I think it's just because I'm tired of that band. Maybe when I do the next, things will perk up.

Can't Cock This Up


Yep, the latest round robin I'm working on is roosters! It's not too big to do one rooster, at least, and it's coming along fairly quickly. I'll have this one out the door by the middle of next week. It's on Aida, but at least the cloth is soft and easier to work with than some. Having it as one big piece helps, too. For some reason, I have a hard time working on small cuts of Aida.

Bluer than Blue

Guess which color I was working on this week? It's coming along pretty well, I think. Looks like I'll have the top half of this corner done soon and will be able to get the bottom half done. I still really enjoy working on this every time I do.
