A Britty Kitty finish!

It took four and a half hours to finish.

It was a perfect fit for the trivet! My sister loved it.

Bad kitty!

Two hours of work on Bad Cat!, which I will finish tomorrow night. It will fit perfectly into a trivet.

Six more hours on Fairy Roses. Six hours a week is about all I can do! I probably will NOT finish her this year! I can only do a little bit at a time before I get bored. But I will finish her someday!

The stash, it keeps on growing...

I bought a new chart leaflet yesterday. It's a Brittercup design- another in a series of kitties.

I wanted this one because it has a punchneedle pattern, too.

I also have this one:

I need to do a very quick gift for my sister's wedding anniversary (SUNDAY!), and Britty Kitties are usually quick. I think I'll do the Bad Cat! on a trivet. That will be a nice little present!

I haven't neglected my other projects. I did some more work on Fairy Roses last night, and will do more tonight.

Getting back in the swing of things...

No pictures yet, but I've been working hard on Fairy Roses and Chocolate. The Fairy is progressing nicely! And I should finish Chocolate in another week.

After that, I need to do the Baseball piece for my sister. Her birthday is in mid August, and that's coming faster than I'd like!

A quick gift!

This is what I gave my dad for Father's Day:

I got the clock kit at Christmas. I decided that Dad would like a little antique car instead of the chart that came with it (which I will stitch later). He loved his present! The stitching took a little over three hours, then another hour to assemble the clock.

Tonight, I'll work on Fairy Roses, finally!

Life is good- finished!

It took about twelve hours to do.

Here it is in the shelf:

I may add a ribbon or something to the top. It looks a little bare.

Now I have a quick present to finish for Father's Day...then I can get back to Fairy Roses!

Holy crap I'm fast!

Here is the first six hours on Life is Good:

Photobucket

It's almost finished! It should only take another five or six hours. And it will fit perfectly in the shelf's frame.

I love Joan Elliott designs. They're so cute and usually simple.
