3 Vases of Flowers

I am really enjoying doing this but with it being on 28 count evenweave I'm doing it through the day and early evenings. 

When I'm not working on this I'm still working on this it's soooo easy as it's block colours so not a lot of counting or concentration needed. 



I seem to have got my stitchy bug back which is good really. I've done a couple of hours today on and off.

An Update

I know I shouldn't have but I started something new yesterday. It's from this months Collection and I'm doing it on 28 count evenweave. I must admit I'm finding it difficult working on evenweave so I'm going to work on it along side Keep Calm which doesn't need as much concentration. 

Here's how far I've got so far with the vase of flowers


Hers how far I am with keep calm which is easy to do and I can work on this when I'm too tired to concentrate. 


I am enjoying working on Keep Calm but sometimes it can be a bit boring as thers only 4 colours in the pallet. When I've finished this I will start Now Panic

Another small finish

Finished this morning. I started it a while ago but have spent the last couple of weeks finishing it. Going to do another UFO next but just can't decide which one.

A finish and a UFO


I finished this tulips which I've been on with for 2 weeks. YES 2 weeks to do a small finish which I intend to turn into a coaster for work only I found out this week my contract which ends on 31 March will probably not be renewed so I won't have much need for it at work. Anyway here it is before it's mounted into a coaster.


I have picked up a UFO I started ages ago (look through my old blog posts and you'll see updates) I do like this and intend to turn it into a cushion to go on the window cill on the half landing. It has taken a lot longer than I thought to do it but that's the story of my life. Anyway here's how it was when I've picked it up again and hopefully when I post an update in a week or so it'll be obvious how much I've done

First finish of 2014

First finish on 2014. It's from WOCS and was a Subs Extra. The spots are my ironing board cover showing through not the material. I'm going to frame it and put it up in the downstairs toilet

Weekly Update

I've started a new project, I know I shouldn't have but I've been desperate to start this for ages. It's a kit I've had for years but I was sorting through some stash I had in the attic and found it then. It's John Clayton's Calla Lilly, I also have the Tulip to do so hopefully I can stitch them both as a matching pair. Here's the update so far, it's stitched  on 27 count evenweave.


I'm also still working on the Shells I started over Christmas-it's an easy one done on 14 count aida

It's nearly finished and I hope to finish it within the next week or so.
