Deadline Looming


One of my daughters best friends is getting married this coming Sunday. This means a deadline is looming as I decided one week ago to X-Stitch this cute pattern for a gift. I am actually doing well and will be done with it on time, I am just concerned about the framing that needs to be done.
I do not enjoy doing my own framing but certainly did not leave anytime for a framer to get this done so its up to me. We will see.......



Two finished Projects! (well almost)

The first is my bobbin lace girl. As you can see she is nearly done. All I have to do is the outline stitching !




The needlepoint project below is the second out of three Christmas sheep that I have finished.
I stitched the wool on the three sheep different (turkey stitch, french knots, and just loops) This one has the french knots and metallic background. Now I am on to the last sheep!




Now that I am back I have been working on my Bucks Fan every night. I am almost done so if nothing interrups me I will be showing it off at Winter Lace Conference. Yeah!
