A minor fender-bender has become a big headache. (Not my fault! We have to decide what to do next. Still thinking . . . So anyway I have been working on my eyelets for Friesland. I'm on the 15th one now. If I worked at it I could finish them today. If I worked diligently I could finish this today too. We'll see. At least...

Lisa's Cross Stitch Paradise: December 2011
http://lisascrossstitchparadise.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Lisa's Cross Stitch Paradise. Friday, December 30, 2011. I can't believe 2011 is almost over! It seems the older I get the faster time flies! Here is my last piece for the year. I stitched "Happy New Year" by Carol R of istitch Designs. Which is freebie on her blog. I changed it up a little as Carol had a heart design beside the word "Happy". I wanted to put the year on my ornament so i omitted the heart. Designer: Carol R of istitch Designs. Weeks Threads: Blue Bonnet. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Thread in Hand: Skipped
http://threadinhand.blogspot.com/2015/08/skipped.html
Follow Thread in Hand by Email. Thursday, August 6, 2015. I skipped blogging yesterday because I went on a short road trip to House of Stitches. I couldn't pass up the opportunity to go to a good stitching shop. It was a fun trip and I loved looking at all the stuff in the shop. I just got some threads and linen and this tiny kit. I made some good progress on a couple of my projects. I finished the green queen and I have a good start on the yellow queen. The Stitching by the Sea box is close to being done.

Follow Thread in Hand by Email. Friday, August 7, 2015. Stitching by the Sea is Where I Long to Be. This design makes me think of Salty Yarns. I love that place. I finished it all up yesterday. Here is my finishing progress:. I finished all the stitching and cut it out. I pressed it and ironed on some interfacing:. I whipped stitched the sides. I used #12 pearl cotton. I basted the top edge down and added a piece of mat board in the bottom. I cut some felt for the the lining. I attached the lining. Three...

Thread in Hand: Finishing Touches

Follow Thread in Hand by Email. Wednesday, August 12, 2015. My three queens just needs a few finishing touches and it will be done. I finished stitching the top row and put in two cute birds. I wanted to put flowers on the arch but I wasn't happy with my first try. I want to try a few leaves and /or curlicues to see how that looks. I'm pretty happy with how it has turned out but something else is needed to complete it. Good thing those shops didn't have it or I would have bought it twice. Duh. A Tale of ...

Follow Thread in Hand by Email. Thursday, August 13, 2015. I finished reading The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up. It was a very helpful book. I have much more tidying up to do. I jotted down a few notes of things I want to remember from this book. These are the things I noted:. 1 Keep things that bring you joy. 2 You have to see everything you have to be able to sort out what to keep and what to get rid of. 3 Reasons you can't throw stuff away: attachment to the past and fear of the future. I went loo...

Thread in Hand: Bee Happy
http://threadinhand.blogspot.com/2015/08/bee-happy.html
Follow Thread in Hand by Email. Monday, August 10, 2015. Yesterday I made up the little bee apron for Claire. It was easy and it turned out cute. I had to go get some jumbo black rick rack that will go around the neck and make a bow. Then I can send it off to her. BFF#2 said I should make a matching apron for her American Girl doll. That would be so sweet. But not today. The bathrooms are clean. The walking is done. I want to see what the next part to put on the queens is going to look like.

Thread in Hand: Lute

Follow Thread in Hand by Email. Friday, August 14, 2015. I had a good day stitching yesterday. I got some more lines on the mermaid. Then I found another mermaid that makes a little purse. So I started that one too. Wild and crazy. I turned her frown upside down. Then I decided to look up lesson #2 for Amy Mitten's Harmony since I'm done with lesson #1. Now we are getting to the good stuff. I started embroidering the lute for the scissors holder. I cut the linen just a bit too small! Time goes too fast.
