It's Got Measles

At least, that's what it looks like to me. I stitch over one in a modified continental, so it's very hard to frog. Guess I'll just work around mistakes as I find them. It's coming along pretty well, I think.

Gardening on Winter Days

The Midnight Garden is coming along quite well, I think. It stitches very quickly, but you need to remember to use a laying tool. Hardest part so far? The bullion knots.

Peeking Out the Windows

I made lots of windows to peek out of this week. It's coming along fairly quickly for me, and each bit brings out a little more character in the buildings.

White's Done

All the white is done until I get to the bottom banner now. That's a sign of real progress, I suppose. I also did some of the brown, again. Brown's going to be a theme for a while, but the skirt is growing.

Round Robin Complete

This was the last block I had to work on for the My Favorite Things round robin. It's so far out of my taste realm that I had a hard time figuring out what to do. I was also kind of shocked that it was sent to me with three patches naked even though I was the last person. I added the tea charms and butterfly included with the block and did some seam treatments. The only part I did that I like are the little asters blowing in the wind on the yellow patch.

A Face

completed! Even if it is one only a mother could love ... Bibendum's coming along. He's so easy to work on it's calming, especially when I have all the black done and just need to fill in the white. If anyone finds other Bibendum needlework designs out there, please tell me.

Half a Frame

I've got about half the frame done now. Yay! It's progress. I'm hoping to start in the middle stuff soon, so it looks less bare.
