Crazy #14- Tu Es Unique

This has been sitting in my stash since my last trip to France.  Time to get it started, especially since it's a pretty small design!

Difference in Speed

It looks like part six is going much faster than the second half of part five.  I'm thinking I should probably work more on five and less on six at this point....

All The Way Across

I managed to get all the way across the width of the sampler.  Now to go back and fill in the bottoms of the swags.

Crazy #13- Mystery Brocante

I had meant to start this piece earlier.  It was a stitchalong offered by European Cross Stitch, but they didn't send the threads until the second shipment of the stitchalong due to backorders.... and it didn't arrive at all.  The mail ate it.  So I ordered a second set of threads and asked them to mail me the pattern piece I'd never gotten, and then Turkish Air decided that mail delivery to Chisinau wasn't going to happen.  This sneaked in on one of their infrequent small shipments toward the middle of January and I finally got to start stitching.  I like the colors with the fabric I picked, but I need to finish another large project before this one goes into the rotation.

Six Squares Done

Another set of squares looks done.  This means I'm at least 2/3 of the way down the fabric and on the slide toward the finish.  I'm beginning to be at the point of wanting this to be -done-, so don't be surprised if I make a big push for just that in the next few weeks.

Line After Line

Row after row of DMC 817.  At least it's pretty easy to do.
