Week 3 Is A Wrap

My stitching over the weekend was focused on the Sweet Shop. My next sit down with this piece and I should be able to finish the snow.

My other stitching was on Swan. Not finished but my swan now has a head and the top swag is almost done.

Week 2, 2018 Un-Snapped

I removed Sweet Shop from the Q-Snaps in order to stitch the tree. There's about a 1-1.5 inches on the left side. Whether an ornament or a cube, this still gives me options for finishing.  In addition to the tree I stitched the wreath and started the door. One more session on this piece and I should be able to finish the stitching and move on to the next one in the series.

Swans is also getting close to a finish. It would be nice to have that one stitched up this week as well.

As part of my Project Organization 2018, I spent a good portion of last week sorting through floss. My extra floss had out grown its boxes and it was hard to determine what colors I had. They are now sorted and bagged, just need to update inventory list, and then my tackle charts and kits. This is going to be a sloooooooooooooooow process! 😉🤞

November 2017: WIPocalypse

Melissa of Measi's Musing is hosting this SAL.

My list for WIPocalpse 2017 needs some major revising. but it's almost the end of the year. Soo... I'll just wait until 2018 and make a new list. Yes, though I haven't stuck to my original plan, I intent to continue with this SAL in 2018.

Here is what I accomplished in November.;

Fragments 2017  came out again, as I started on Number 5. Four of the six large flowers are almost done. Should not take to long to finish the others as well as the basket to complete this Fragment square.

Summer House Stitche Workes

A new start for me is the" Sweet Shop" by Little House Needleworks. Another area where self control when out the window. I follow Little House Needleworks and Country Cottage Needleworks on Facebook. I also follow several stitchers that are LHN and CCN addicts on Instagram. Is it any wonder that I was pressured to start the Hometown Holiday Series? They twisted my arm, really they did!!

Personalized Name Tree by M-Designs
 This month I stitched two name trees. Yeah!! These charts have been in the pile for a few years now. I really would like to get at least two more stitched in the next couple of weeks.
stitched with  NPI 464 Delft Blue
This tree needs to be decorated. I'm waiting on some beads that I pray will be the right shade of blue. Still trying to decide what ornament to use as the tree topper

stitched with NPI 103 Pansy Purple
Delica 11/0 , 1347: Mill Hill Star
This tree is all blinged out and ready to have the finishing completed. 
I'm so excited to get it to this point.
