Hope Everyone Had A Great Weekend! Couple of FFO's & WIPS Updates
Hello Everyone :)
I hope you enjoyed your weekend, and got lots of stitching done! I have been busy doing lots of things, and I'm excited to share :)
First off an update on my Lavender and Lace Angel of Grace WIP. I am moving right along with it, and hope to be done with it soon. Last week I worked on finishing up the 1 over 1 skin, doing the dove, and completing all the backstitching and detail work. Now I have moved on to finishing the rest of her skirt.
Now to talk about my Shamrock, and how Mr. Frog paid me a good 'ol visit on this WIP! Stinking frog!! Ugghhh! I had got most of the middle "leaf" stitched on the shamrock, when lo and behold it didn't line up when connecting it! And I had to rip out ALL of that stitching and a piece on the final "leaf" that I had started on the left hand side. So that is what I spent my Saturday night doing was stitching a whole bunch and then ripping it all out! Sunday I managed to get it all stitched correctly, and now all I have left is the left side. Whew, that was frustrating, but back on track now :)
Day 5 Shows the more true to color. It was cloudy today for Day 6.
Also on Saturday. I pinned and framed a piece I stitched about a year and a half ago, maybe two years ago. I am in love with it, and have it sitting on my desk. I got many a wonderful comment on it from Instagram :)
The week before I FFO'd the Mill Hill Wanda's Hat into an ornament. I backed it with spider scrapbook paper and added a beaded hanger! I love how it turned out. I want to purchase me a Halloween ornament tree for this year for these types of things.
I also have started thinking about what my next WIP or project will be. So many options running through my head. I thought about picking back up a big bunny with flowers project, or starting a Mira Mermaid, or Nora Corbett's Miss Valentine Fairy, or ??? As I get closer I will narrow it down and decide what I am in the mood to work on :)
I think I am going to go to Michael's this week and buy some floss for some projects to kit up. I have my floss list all written out for a good handful of projects. I have a 25% off coupon for the entire order of regular priced items, and that will work great since the price of DMC floss has went up!!
Well, I hope everyone has a great week and will talk soon :)

Updates On My Stitching Projects, Chatter, and Stitchy Mail
Hello Everyone :)
Hope ya'll are doing good :) We are getting hit with a bad storm system here on the east coast. Hope everyone is safe and okay in Alabama and Georgia who had some tornado's. We've got heavy rain, lightning, and winds. So please stay safe and dry <3
I have been concentrating on my L&L Angel of Grace, and stitching some here and there on the Shamrock. I am anxiously wanting and projecting on getting Angel of Grace done. Can't wait to see her all done! Thinking of my next project after her. I may work on some medium sized ones to get a handful of projects I am looking forward to doing. I am already working on a game plan ;)
I don't really want to say too much right now, but I have some exciting news to announce soon :) Will keep you updated on that when the time comes!
I should have another Floss Tube video up tomorrow. I will post here on the blog when I do. I seem to be doing pretty good on getting back into recording. I am planning on tomorrow or Friday getting started on next week's. Hope ya'll are enjoying them :)
I also have some stitchy haul to share also. It's not everything I have gotten as I share that in the Floss Tube videos.
I hope everyone has been stitching away!! Talk to you soon :)
