Another Finish!

I felt I needed to show this so I could justify starting a new project. Yes (hanging head in shame), I have started something new. But I will share that tomorrow!  This piece was felted by my daughter when she was 10. A year or so ago she was going to throw it away. I stopped her as I loved the colors. I did all the hand stitching on it, lined it and made it into a little clutch for my tablet.  So far she has not asked for it back.

Flowers in the Fall

I have gotten back to work on the felted bag. I was waiting to stitch on it as I was unsure where to go. Finally just started stitching and these cast on flowers seemed to work. Need to find some beads for the center.

Bullet Journal Stitching List(Long with photos)

My dd  introduced me to Bullet Journals and I thought it might actually work for me. I do keep lists and journals and I needed a way to keep a calendar and my lists together. If you want to find out more, try http://bulletjournal.com/ . It was where I looked.

Here is my list: 

 I like having a spot to mark when I have completed a task which is why there is a little box to the left of each project. (Why I put one in front of Reptiles is beyond me as that won't be done anytime soon!) These are just projects that I currently have started and want to see completed.
Joseph just needs some white beads and then he goes to the finishing pile.

 Blue SOTM(Flowers of Italy) needs two squares redone and the background stitch put in. The background is a pain and takes a bit of time. Good thing to do while watching tv.

 ANG is a totally new project that I can't show you. It is for the Chapter Project Book, maybe....ANG Chapter Project Books

The next two are Drawn Thread Sampler (DTS). If I would just do the smaller one, I would be close to finished. But nooooooo! I needed to do the large one too. And I can no longer meet with my stitching friend to work on my piece. Hopefully we can regroup and find a time to meet. This is too pretty to live in my basement.

 This is my felted bag. DD started it ages ago and did make it into a bag. I am redoing it.

 This is Reptiles. I have almost finished a page of it. I find it quite addicting once I start working on it. Do you think I can finish it in three years for my son's college graduation?

Several of these projects have hard due dates. The most pressing is the ANG project as it MUST be done by November 1. Blue SOTM should be worked on before the second week in October and I am supposed to have the felted bag finished by October 6. Drawn Thread is to stitched by March 2017(lots of time) and I want to get Joseph ready to hang for Christmas.
Sorry for such a long post, but this stuff has been rattling in my brain and I needed to get it out!  Do you all make lists and prioritize your stitching? Or are you one of those stitchers who only works on one project at a time?

Daughter's Finish

My daughter could not wait to finish her needle felt project.  Mine is lingering in the basement....

Needlefelting Part 2

These are the pieces I made at the local  EGA's needlefelting workshop.  I need to harden up the flower and both pieces need beads, lots of beads.  And stitching too!  Abi from High Prairie Fibers taught the workshops.                                                             

Needlefelting Workshop Part 1

My local EGA had Abi from High Prairie Fibers do two workshops on needlefelting.    The top photo is of the flowers dd made during the morning session.  The bottom photo is of the scrapcloth she made in the afternoon.  She has decided to free-motion quilt the scrapcloth and make it into a purse.  The orange flower will be added to the purse.
