Almost There

I mentioned  my Woodland WIP a couple weeks ago. I had to frog most of September which bummed me out so I didn't touch it for almost two weeks. Got September and October done in a week. It's been hard to but this project down when I need to.

Woodland Sampler Update

I know it's already October but I had to frog most of September because I was off by one stupid stitch that affected the whole stitching area. I will be moving on to October right away though so that's not a bad thing. I love working on this piece. I think the flash washed out the B5200 wind swirls.

Recent Finish

I finished this little turkey for Thanksgiving. I need to iron and frame him still.

I changed the little heart thing from the called for 352 to 350 with a single strand of 352 stitched in sporadically.

I messed up on the left leaf but didn't find out till I was doing the vein. I debated for all of five seconds on wheither or not to frog the whole leaf or just leave it. I chose to just leave it as you can see.

Current WIP's

Here are three of my WIP's (work in progress). I'm only posting three of them because the other three haven't been touched in months or years in the case of one.

Rainbow Fractal
Charted by A Cross Stitch Fantasy. I am planning on turning it into a throw pillow when it's finally done. The confetti stitches ore driving me insane. I just dug it out to put it in the project bag I made. Everything but the PAKO needle organizer fit in it so that was a good thing.

I found out that the pattern pages from the SAL were different from the pages in the pattern I purchased. So I have to start back on page one. I hope I still have enough fabric (Charles Craft 16ct aida)

 Woodland Sampler
 This is my Frosted Pumpkin. I've been doing it like it was released in 2013 as a monthly mystery SAL. I still have to figure out how to turn the 3 into a 6 for the year on the banner in the last panel. Done on Loops & Threads (Michael's Brand) 14ct natural aida ice dyed by me.

Panda
I found this guy here at Ann's Cross-Stitch Patterns. I went looking for a panda to stitch for my youngest a while back and found this site. He is obsessed with them now. Stitched on MCG Oatmeal 14ct aida.

Pond Stitching

This is were I will post about anything cross stitch related. Be it WIP's to finishes, products I can or can't live without, fabrics I dye (I think I'm obsessed now), and things I make for stitching.

Sewing Things for Cross Stitch

I think I'm liking sewing almost as much as I enjoy cross stitching. Or maybe it's just sewing things for my cross stitch. Although I'm about to start a project for my mom for her crochet hooks. That might be a good place to start this blog page off.
