A Little Start

 

But I will be ripping this out. I dyed this fabric; I think it is Monaco. I also dyed the floss, but I don't like how it looks. I think I will start again with a solid thread-dark grey, perhaps?

A Little Bit of A Finish

 Does this count as a finish? Can I start a new project?

Ok. So August is stitched and I need to add initials eventually.....

Gifted Gorgeousness for August

 Well, I was wondering what I could post for this month when I realized this piece was a gift I gave myself for my birthday in July:

Gifted Gorgeousness is the brainchild of Jo

You post anything that can count as a gift.  Have a great weekend!

This is Addicting!

 I have been working on this a little every night and I hate to put it away. I really should be working on My Beloved by HATS, but I honestly could not think about tackling the Montenegrin Stitch today.  

 I even enjoy ironing the Neon Rays!

A Little Cross Stitch

 I always forget how crazy August and September are with having a garden.  So I decided to focus on finishing this piece:

It has been my carry along with me piece, but I am ready to get it finished. 

I won't only be working on it, but I will be stitching on it daily to move it forward.

A Little Bit of Needlepoint

Well, I now  remember why counted canvas is my favorite type of needlework. It goes so much quicker and has such fun stitches!

The above is Royal Garden by Debbie Rowley. Lots of fun, but I think I will run out of the floss I used on the scotch stitches.

Below is Inchies by Kathy Rees. If I wasn't leading my local guild in stitching this, it would be done. I have made lots of silly mistakes, but I do enjoy stitching this.
