More Than Halfway


Halfway and a bit more done with As the Snow Falls, the Christmas mystery from Marquoir. Not going to finish it by Christmas, but definitely before winter here.

Fourth Line Started


Things are coming along here - the fourth line is officially started. I won't have this part done by the end of the year, but it'll be close.

First Holiday Temari

So far, I've made four temari for the holidays. One didn't get a picture before it was given away. This one I made for an exchange run by the Friendly Stitchers yahoogroup. I like the way it turned out all Christmasy. I just hope my partner likes it!

Heading Down


It's still heading down. Once I've gotten one or two of my stitchalongs done, I'll start working on this more than once every week or so. Then it'll look like I'm making more progress. This week, it was all red and black. Go figure.

Stacking Stitches


I've been working the lines on both sides. There's a bit more to go on them, but they're almost done. Every layer goes upward, it seems.

Sticking With Brown


Still more brown stitches on the skirt. At least it's coming along.

Another Charity Heart

Remember back in March and April I was embroidering hearts for sick children? There's a new batch and I've started again. This one's by Julia, a seven year old. I'm using mainly floss from a detritus bag from Vikki Clayton.
