Monogram Home

This was lost for a little while in my house - my maid had put it on a bookshelf, and I didn't know.  Anyway, finally, here's a picture!  Thank you, ladies, for all your work.  I also don't have a beginning picture because of my main puter being back at the manufacturer getting fixed.  This is home now, though.  It's time to make something of it!

One More Roof

Not much in the way of new building progress, but I did complete the roof of the stable - and the doors that are cross stitched.

Still Working on the Bell

I'm still working on the bell for the second jellyfish.  It's truly difficult to count on the gauze because of the two layers of net it's sandwiched between.  On the other hand, I did get quite a bit done this last time.

A Chilly Finish

It makes sense, in a way, that I finished this in autumn.  Yes, it's fall here.  I completed Chilly Wind from Periwinkle Promises on Sunday.  There was so little left to do I couldn't let it sit.  Now I need to dig out a new purse project and pat myself on the back for having another one of my Crazy January Challenge pieces finished!

Thank You Seija!

Earlier in the spring, I participated in a foreign service swap.  Seija, who is about to move to Warsaw with her husband and four children, sent me this book!  It's one she found inspirational.  She received a temari I made for her in March.  And yes, I did get this a while back.  My maid cleared off the table and hid it in the bookshelf.

Starting on the Last

I am finally on the last rectangle of the bag!  It's started, and I only have to finish it to get the whole thing done.

Narrowing It Down

I've gotten most of the body of the heart done and am now working on getting the bottom third done.  Progress, progress!
