Needlepoint-Days 9 and 10

 This B canvas has been in my stash for years.  I have decided to get this done.  I need to figure out what background I am going to use.
This is an new StitchNZip project.  I love these and always find a use for them.

Days 7 & 8

It is difficult to post every day, but I have managed to do a little stitching each day.
Continuing on the Nativity Trilogy, here is my start of Joseph.  I do believe I have the Three Kings, but can't find them in my stash.
 Today I decided I needed something bright so I started Kiwi: Owlets Ornament by Mill Hill.
Nordic Needle had a sale on Mill Hill beads kits and I managed to resist.  I have  a small amount of self control.

Day 6-Work in Progress Wednesday

This one needs to get done soon!
I cannot find the picture I took of this with some of the filling done.  Computers!  And I really should go clean my house, so I will just post this.  It is getting closer to being done.  After I get this section done I need to go back and find where all the beads go.

Days 4 and 5

I had to take two of my kids to get wisdom teeth removed yesterday, but I did get some stitching done!
First up is Busy Bee by Shepherds Bush.  I think it has been in my stash since 2009.
 Today I met with a couple of friends and worked on my Doodle Drawn Thread Sampler by Gay Ann Rogers.  This will get done this year!

Day 3 Start and A Finish

I just put a few stitches in my new piece:
 I do have several more in this series to do...
I was able to finish my Santa yesterday. 
I really, really need to get back to Heirloom Stitching Sampler. If I write it often enough, maybe I will.

Day 2 Start

 This is my start for today.  It is nativity Trilogy-Baby Jesus by Mill Hill.  I found the center and got the face in.
I was able to get the outline done on Cameo Heart.  Then I started working on the scotch stitch that goes in the center. I hated putting this away.  I have a feeling it will be the thing I work on after I get my Santa done.

Crazy Start One

I have not gotten much done today.  I keep miscounting.  I would fudge this part-the outline-but I know it makes the rest of the stitching easier..Maybe I can get this right before I go to bed tonight.
