Progress at last!

My needles are very happy!!
This month's question deals with Fantasy or Reality, what's our preference?  
I happen to like a little of both on my cross stitch menu!

WIPocalypse for February

February's full moon brings with it
Measi's WIPocalypse at Measi's Musings.


Each month we post our progress on WIPs we have and encourage each other to put another stitch in to get the piece that much closer to being a finish.

Here's where things stood in January :

LITTLE SWEEPER

 WINDOWSILL BIRDHOUSES

TWO LONG~EARED RABBITS POEM 

 and how they look today

just finishing up the back stitch


finding the outer edge and parking


some lettering love

 I've also added over 5000 stitches to "THE ALCHEMIST" ! (HAP SAL)
ONE MORE POINT OF INTEREST,
If you're new to my blog and would like a chance at a GIVEAWAY I'm hosting, just pop over
HERE! A hint!!
 It involves floss ")
This month's query,
What do you do when you're in a rut?
My solution is rotation, rotation, rotation!!!
I may not have many projects on the go but what I do keeps me happy.

Gifted Gorgeousness SAL ~ January

January 15th, 2015 brings me to the first post on


The idea here is to stitch a project that has, in some way, been gifted to you. Whether in part or whole, as long as "gifted" can be added to the description, you're good! You can even stitch a little something and gift it away, it counts as Gifted Gorgeousness. This is not a competition either, but a gathering of supporters brimming with encouragement for each other. There are no minimum or maximums, only those self imposed to the number of projects you work on, so with that in mind here is my Gifted Gorgeousness for January 2015.

Two Long~Eared Rabbits Poem
stitched on 18ct ivory aida with DMC floss
I'm waffling on the shade of green. 

A Nancy Turner design that I chose with a gift certificate I won back in December.
A modest beginning to the SAL by other's standards but I have other stitching on the go as well and maybe next month I'll be able to add a few smalls that will be Christmas gifts in 2015!
Until next time,


HAPPY STITCHING ")
