DEFG

Working on the alphabet and doing all the special stitches around it. I think this will be pretty when finished, even though the alphabet fades into the background.

 

Making a Stone

Just worked on the stone on the left. It and the red panda's back are now filled in and substantial. About halfway done now.

 

Almost Armadillo

Just need to finish the tail on the little armadillo.

I am embarrassingly far behind on posting. This year with Andreas away has been super busy and a bit occupied. This is a biscornu with tiny! stitches. 

 

Shroomed

Time to make this into something round.

 

Looking Cute

No backstitching yet, but the red panda is beginning to look truly cute.

 

Armadillo Shell

Adding to the armadillo. Did you know the Polish name for armadillo is 'panczerka'? It means little tank. I think it's apt and cute.

 

Adding Hearts

Almost done with the flag and started some hearts. Just need the finial and some more hearts - then time for the background.

I am so very far behind on everything lately. Time to get things like this done. I've been able to get a bit more stitching done lately, at least. Unfortunately, not this piece.

Started the winter sky.

 

Make Stuff May 2025 #20: Wander by Heart in Hand

Making this again for someone else.

 

Starring

Working on the stars still on this. There's a lot of stitching for a relatively small piece.

 

Pinky

Lots of pink for a Halloween design.

 

Changing the Word

Changed the word her back to the original... Californian woke-ism by the designer. At least it was an easy change.

 

America Americ...

Starting on the lettering.

Another tiny kit by RTO including frame. When I get back to it, it'll be done in a flash.

A cute little piece too stitch up quickly.

 

Make Stuff May 2025 #27: St. Martin's Celtic Cross by Celtic Cross Stitch Company

This is a very straightforward stitch. I've had this kit in my stash for quite a while. Finally starting it.

Another Ink Circles start. This one will be a bit bigger than ornament size, but not much.

 

Feeling Progress

I'm feeling good about this piece because every time I look at it, I see actual progress. I'm almost halfway done with it, too.
