More Of May

I have more of May done, yay!  I am getting more and more anxious to complete each rectangle each month.

Third Iteration

I keep making this pattern and giving it away to people getting married.  This time, I am going to keep it to myself!  I like the color combo and hope to finish it sometime soon.  It's one of my Stitch Maynia starts.

It's Not That Dark

I bought these two pieces of cotton lawn on my first visit to the fabric market in Mumbai.  They were the only pieces I bought; my local guide was sort of baffled at being in that place at all.  They've both got beautiful machine embroidered peacock feathers on them.  I have yet to decide what to do with it, though.  Sorry for the dark photo.  It was taken by me in my hotel room.


Marbly Fabric

I saw this fabric on pinterest and found it on sale at joann.com.  It's mine now!

Marching Elephants

I have eggs and elephants so far.  What other handpainted items did I buy?

Showboating Along

He just grows more handsome with each stitch.  I've started on the globe pretty well now, too.

Stitch Maynia Start

I have decided to switch over to Stitch Maynia instead of Crazy January because it's a much more active community.  That's why I did only fifteen starts in January.  I will not be doing Crazy January at all next year.  This start is flag box, and it's a really quick stitch.  I'm hoping to get more stitching done before the end of the year and get a bunch more things finished.  Hopefully this will be one of them.
