3rd finish for 2010

Well I am behind on my progress of the family ornaments but have just completed my third project for the year.  This is a Lizzie * Kate design, a set of three in the Tiny Tidings II.  I added an outline back stitching to the border to help make the DMC 712 show up better. 
I have type up my project list for this year, which I would love to complete but realistically I will be quite happy to complete 2/3 of it. :)

I'm hoping by posting my list here it will help me to be more accountable and working through it all.

Christmas SAL

Last week I signed up to do a Christmas SAL and of course I'm already behind...lol. But I got part 1 and part 2 charts the same day and managed to stitch part 1 yesterday.

This is such a pretty design and I am anxious to get it stitched, which is good as part 3 comes out today. So today will find me stitching part 2 and hopefully tomorrow part 3 so I am ready for part 4 when it is released on October 3rd.
I will also be frogging stitching I did on another SAL (Peace SAL) so I can start that over and have part 1 completed in time for part 2 to be released October 21.
I have so many projects to finish up, so I guess I need to get my fingers flying.

Finally some stitching!

Although it has been a little while since I've posted; computer and internet issues, not to mention life getting in the way, I have been busy with my stitching. Over the past few weeks I have worked on several projects and am happy to say that two small charts from online Chats SALs are just waiting to be made into something. Spring and Summer Itsy Bitsys....









I have also worked on 4 other projects which most are coming along nicely: The first is pages 9, 10 and 11 of the OakhavenDesigns Aug MSAL from last year. Only 4 more pages to go on this one....yippee!



I also worked on A Quaker Christmas and managed to get more of pages 2 and 5 done. I will have to post a photo of this later after I get it downloaded from my camera. My other project is a secret project that is almost completed and will be a present for someone in the next few weeks.....so hush please. As soon as this person recieves it I will be happy to share with everyone else....so stay tuned.

Oh yeah, I have also tried to work on another piece that has been in progress for a while now, but have just had to frog the same section for a second time......maybe one of these days my Book of Ink Circles will get finished....lol.
