June SAL #2-Snow Pals #2

~ lbick ~ 5 Comments

It is hard to believe it is almost July already! This year has felt like it is going by at a crawl and just flying by at the same time.

A lot has happen in the last 3 weeks so there hasn’t been much stitching time, but I have been able to sneak in a few minutes here and there.

Here is where I was 3 weeks ago.

And now……..

I was able to get some of the grey shading done around the deer’s face and ears.

Hopefully you are having a great summer so far.

Please check out what the others in the SAL are working on and I’ll be back in 3 weeks for another update.

June SAL Midnight Way Happy Dance.

~ lbick ~ 10 Comments

Well I finally have a Happy Dance to report! I finished Midnight Way.

Here is where I was last update

And here is the finished project…….

It feels so good to have this project finished. I really like the way it turned out. Now I just have to decide if I want to frame it, make it a pillow or so something else.

Now that this project is finished, it’s time to think about a new project. Back in October/November 2019 I started a project called “Snow Pals” I got about 1/3 done and wasn’t liking the way it looked on the white background, so I put it in “timeout” Well I remembered I had this one and decided it was time to work on it again.

Here is what the finished project will look like….

And here is what I had done before it was put in timeout.

I decided to work it on a darker grey cloth. So far I’m liking it better.

Here is my first update on “Snow Pals”……..

This is the head of the deer. It is going fast so far.

Well I guess this is it for now. Please check out what the others in the SAL have been up to and I’ll see you with another update in 3 weeks.

May SAL Midnight Way #13

Well life has slowed down a bit and I have been able to get some stitching in, Yeah!!!

It hasn’t been much stitching, but something is better then nothing.😄

Here is where I was the last time

And here I am now.

You can see the a bat and the beginning of Frankenstein. Just have to do the out lines. So a funny thing… I couldn’t figure out what that brown blob was until I looked at the picture above and realized it was a broom the bat was hanging on 🤣

Hopefully things are to continue to slow down and I’ll be able to stitch more. I think I’m ready for a new project. 🤣 I’m trying to stay with this one and finish it, but it is hard 🤣

Please check out what the others have been doing and I’ll see you in 3 weeks.

Well life has been super busy and crazy.

We had our daughter’s wedding at our house a couple of week ago. it turned out beautiful. The weather was great and it ended up being a beautiful night.

We have had something most nights and there just hasn’t been any time to do any stitching. Unfortunately I seem to be a day behind in my thinking and totally missed the update yesterday.

Hopefully life will slow down soon. I’m really ready for a day to stay home and get something done.

Please check out what the others have been up to and I’ll see you in 3 weeks.

Well life is still crazy busy right now. Our daughter is getting married next weekend in our backyard, so I have been doing some major spring cleaning. 😀 By the time I sit down in the evenings I’m really tired and don’t feel like doing much of anything, but relaxing. I did get a tiny amount of stitching in, but I’m not sure you will be able to tell much difference 🤪

Here is my stitching the last time I shared …….

And now…….

I added a little more on the broader. Hopefully after next weekend, things will calm down and I’ll have more progress to show you

Please check out what the others are working on and I’ll be back in 3 weeks.

Looks like this year is starting off like the last few years, going quickly. How can it be almost February already? Wasn’t Christmas just last week? 🤣

I haven’t had much time to stitch these last 3 weeks, but I did get some time in. I was able to finish most of the “Cat and Bat” store. The only thing I have left to do on this section is the cat’s eyes and some backstitching.

Here is where I was 3 weeks ago……

And now…..

And a close up of the section I’ve been working on……

Please check out what the others have been up to and I’ll see you in 3 week.

Happy New Year. Hope you had a wonderful Christmas. Ours was great. Lots of family time.

It hard to believe it’s 2022. Time sure does fly. I was able to get some stitching in-between all the Christmas preparations.

Here is were I was last update…..

And now….

I’m almost done with the Cat and Bat shop and just have the border under all the shops to finish. It will nice to have it done. Thinking I may stitch something beside Halloween for my next project 🤣

Thanks for checking in and please check out what the others have been able to work on this holiday season.

See you in 3 weeks.
