31 August -Stitching Update

Here's an update in the 2 projects I'm currently working on. Unfortunately I've lost my stitchy bug a bit and haven't done much stitching this week. Also Stepping Stones in in danger of becoming a UFO as I haven't done any on it for a month or so. But here's AOY 



And here's vintage bicycle

I'm getting quite a lot of stitching done as I'm waking up at 7am on a morning and the othe Aren't getting up till 9am ish so 2 hours of quiet bliss every morning gives me time to read the papers on line and stitch. Here's an update from yesterday's stitching.

Portugal Stitching

We managed to get a last minute deal to come to Portugal so we came. It's hot hot hot here (the same as in England) but at least here I can sit around and read. I brought an All Our Yesterday's kit which is bigger than I usually bring but with not sleeping very well I knew a cover kit wouldn't be enough and the projects I'm working on at home are too big. I've managed about 3 hours so far and I'm really enjoying it.

28 June 2013

This is this weeks update. I have finished Live Simply last week here's a picture of the finished item. 

It took 17 hours and 55 minutes to stitch. 

Here's an update of what I've been working on this week. 

John Clayton's  Stepping Stones is my main project. It's on 28 count even weave and is building up slowly. This is after 23 hours and 42 minutes. 


Here's my other project which is actually bigger than I thought it would be. It's finished she will be more A3 size and not the A4 size I thought it was. But it is not densely stitched so hopefully it won't take too long to finish.  Its the Vintage Bike from an issue of Cross Stitcher.
