Revelation picture --10 pages!

Phew! I made it to the end of page 10! I have major burnout now on this one. I will work on Pink Garden Fairy now. Feels like a new start would be nice, lol. So much to work on though, already. We'll see :)

More little houses!

Here is another little house I made! They are kind of cute, I think. The pattern is on my side bar. :) I think I will sew them together some how into a little wall hanging.

Fairy Day SAL!

I have been busy with Revelation this weekend for Fairy Day. I made my goal to finish the 10th full page! So that means 2 full rows completed. I am completely burned out on the project now. It took some effort to get through the last 800 stitches. I have been struggling with this project the whole month. Most days I have had a hard time managing more than 300 stitches. I made an extra effort Sunday though. I will be taking a picture tomorrow when there is lots of light. I want to get an extra nice shot. :)

Revelation 9.5 pages


Here it is at nearly 10 full pages! After a bit of a breather I am moving along nicely, although hardly super fast. I sure am looking forward to finishing this row! :) I should have no problem getting there by the end of the month. I will try to get a really good picture then. Most of my pictures just turn out really dark. I always have to adjust them in Photoshop.

Freebie WIP


I have been working on this during the day. It's from My aunt's attic. I chose the colors myself, and it's over one. Very fun little project. I just have the border left, so I should have it done next week.

Pink Garden Fairy


Here she is at 1/4 page. It's pretty fun to work on. Down this column I will hit the end of the eye, and the eyes in Vinson's artwork are great. :)

Sunday update

The camera was held hostage last weekend and part of this week, so I have been extra slow updating. :( But here is what I have been doing this week. I took a breather from Revelation to do some small stuff, below are the results. I am back working on Revelation again. Hopefully by next weekend I can make another half page mark and post a new pic. :)

Cats!


This is a section from a pattern posted in Anna magazine, Jan 2007 issue. My cats are missing eyes tho! I doubt I will do the whole pattern.. it's one of those where there are lots of diagonal backstitching, but they use whole crosses. Drives me crazy stitching "outside" the lines, and it's a lot of extra effort to figure out fractionals as you go. But this would make a cute finish on its own. :) I may do more or do parts of the pattern as individual finishes.

Winter house freebie


Here is my Christmas-winter house freebie I made this past week. The beads and embroidery don't really show up so well, but they are nice and shiny in person. :) I think this ended up a little too large for a pillow, so I will just make a little wall hanging thing out of it. The pattern is on my sidebar!

House finished!


I made this into a little hanging pillow. :)
