I would like to thank everyone on your kind comments from my last post. New stash is so much fun! Of course, it now languishes in the to-do pile. Hmm, gonna have to do something about that pile.
Recently checked my completions page and got a R-U-D-E eye opening. This time last year I was working towards finish number 15. So far this year - 5! In my own defense though - One Nation was big and Red Birds isn't small. I try to keep telling myself that 2012 is the year of BAP (Big *ss Project). Up next is 272 Words which is 349w x 375h - another large one.
I did realize that Red Birds has just enough of everything for me. The colors are vibrant. The amount of stitches per color are about perfect. Nice globs strung together. I'm not bored with it and I do see progress. Speaking of which, bear with me on the pictures today. I want to stick in here what I can do in one month.

Today's installment! |
Also, if you've left a comment recently or emailed - please be patient with me - I've not yet made it to my email. Like I said - been a bit busy. Waiting now on the UPS man to bring my hammock arc. Need to go help DH with the step railings that showed up this morning.
So ta-ta and toodle-lu!
Keep smiling - make 'em wonder what you've been up to!

I think this is progressing really well and looks gorgeous.
It's still all black except the photos, but I can at least say that they're awesome! Great stitching, Girlfriend!
This is such a beautiful piece! I love cardinals and this one is nicely done. Your stitching is lovely. Who designed it?
Brightest Blessings!

You are making wonderful progress on this project! It is lovely!
TA-Dah . . . there is your ta-dah moment for today's postg.

Maybe, instead of the number of projects done, you should count the area you have finished. . . since you can figure the area of each project, you could keep track of the "amount" that way . . then the biggies would get credit for being big
Wonderful progress on Red Birds. The magnolia is taking shape already :)
Hugs,
Veronica.
