Progress Report

I've been so lax on updating!  I have been stitching up a storm, though.  I have finished stitching the Halloween Quadrille.

I was hoping to get it put together this week, but I don't think that's going to happen. 

I made a tiny bit of progress on the Trick or Treat Sampler, not as much as I had hoped for.

There are two more bands done on this since this picture was taken;  just not in the mood for Halloween at the moment, lol.

I stitched an ornament for an exchange next week, Holly Jolly by Kincavel Krosses.

It turned out much nicer than I expected.  I need to get it sewn into a humbug ASAP.

And I caved and started something new.  I just couldn't resist the new Just Nan Gingerbread Cube.

I don't expect I will have this done by Christmas because I was bad and started another Christmas piece yesterday.  The next update will show that and the two finishes I got back, three if I get the humbug together.  Although, I might not get to sit here again until New Year's.  And I really want to do a winter piece before I start on Easter.  So much to do, sigh.

Happy Stitching,

Tamara

Here is this week's progress on Curl Up:

And the Halloween Quadrille:

I'm itching to get going on some Christmas stuff now, but I will be good.  I received my Just Nan new patterns, the Gingerbread Angel Mouse and the Gingerbread Cube, so cute!  I just ordered the fabric for the cube today and for another Christmas piece, so I will need lots of willpower soon or some additional ambition to get something accomplished on the Quadrille and the Trick or Treat Sampler. 

Happy Stitching!

I have made visible progress on Curl Up this week!  Unfortunately, the picture is it's usual crappy quality, lol.

Here's the Halloween Quadrille progress:

I seem to be getting out of my Halloween mood.  I have several Christmas/winter charts on the top of my to do pile, but I will finish this one and the Trick or Treat Sampler before moving on.  Hopefully, I will have them done by next Halloween.  Sigh. 

There were some pretty visitors here a few weeks ago:

No progress on the Trick or Treat Sampler this week and I didn't get an update picture of the Halloween Quadrille.  I've finally finished my running around for the weekend, so I am going to try to get a few more stitches in Curl Up this afternoon.

Happy Stitching!

VS Trick or Treat Sampler Bands 1-5

I've gotten a good start on the Victoria Sampler Trick or Treat Sampler.  I was not sure about my fabric choice for this one (PTP Haunted), but I think it's going to be good.

I was hoping to have the next band finished this weekend, but I'm not feeling very motivated. 

I did manage to finally finish a pair of socks just this morning:

Red Heart Heart & Sole
Spring Stripes

And now I have accomplished at least 3 things already this morning, lol.  So, now on to get the weekend errands done before having to go back to work tomorrow.  Maybe a little more stitching on Trick or Treat, then tonight I will work on a new start, The Sweetheart Tree Halloween Quadrille.

Happy Stitching,

Tamara

Shades of Halloween and More!

Shades of Halloween by The Sweetheart Tree:

It's done on 28 ct Tropical Orange linen with the recommended 3 strands. 

I finally got Just Nan's Miss Witchy Mouse put together.

Yesterday I took Nature's Little Helper and Autumn Romance to the framers. 

Next up is The Sweetheart Tree Halloween Quadrille and I have started The Victoria Sampler Trick or Treat Sampler.  The over 1 house at the top of that one is killing me!  I was concerned with my fabric choice, but so far, it's looking good.  When I get top band finished, I'll post a picture.

Wow, it just started pouring rain here!  There is a cold front moving through today and we should have some nice fall weather for the weekend. 

Happy Stitching!

Autumn Romance

It's finally finished!

 

I'm hoping to have a couple more little finishes later this week and if I do, I will have new starts to show.  It looks like Halloween is going to be a big theme. 

Happy Stitching!
