Lots of stitching ......

It's been a whole week which is not what I planned at all!!!! I've been busy with my mom but still taking days and resting even though it's made her unhappy. We've been doing the movies and saw one show but my energy level takes a full day to recuperate. So I rest and stitch!!!!!! Here is my progress on Feather... I'm onto the bottom half of her. I still have the metallic to do and the beads. I really want to switch out the Kreinik for Rainbow Gallery so I will do that on wednesday at stitching group. I found a comparison chart but one of the Kreiniks is not listed so I'll do it visually with help. I missed stitching group last wednesday but was just too tired and instead I stayed home and stitched!!!

Next is another new start....Halloween Fairy on 32ct Crystal Midas from PTPlus . The new Mirabilia Stitchers board is having a contest from 1/31 to April ?. So I took that as an opportunity to have a new start. I know it doesn't take much for me to start a new project....... Here she is... So sorry the pics are not the best but I snapped them quickly for this post. She really is stitching up fast and I'm loving her!

On another note the World of Passione Ricamo board has moved to a new home! I've become a moderator there as well of the Fairy forum and the Princess forum so come and visit! It's a great board with lots of great people as is the new Mirabilia Stitchers board.

I'm off to a cup of coffee and breakfast and a day of stitching!!!!!

I am grateful for lazy days of stitching.....

PS... I started this post last night but finished it this afternoon.....thanks for visiting!!!!

A few things..........

I want to start by saying that my stitching mojo has returned and I am stitching into the wee hours of the night!!!! I have also been to my wednesday stitching group which is great fun!!! I plan on going to tomorrow's saturday group some of the same stitcher's are there so I know it will be fun.

On a good news front I saw my surgeon and she said everything was good which basically means that my final pathology was benign just a plain old fibroid and now it's gone. I am happily in what is known as surgical menopause and with the wonder of medicine 'the hormone patch" I have not experienced a hot flash! It'll be 3 weeks this coming tuesday! And she also cleared me to drive but still wants me to take it easy. Which I will, I have learned!

I had another new start something I've been planning a while but before I tell you about that my last finish Bless was done on PTPlus Crystal Highland 32 ct linen. I forgot to include that bit of information in my last post. I started an Mdesigns letter "C" for my hubby and plan to do my initial and the Celtic Heart and then frame them and hang them together. I still plan all the initials for my bridal party as well including the best man and usher. It will be fun! So here is the start of my "C" done on PTPlus Davinci 32 ct linen which hubby bought me for a birthday 2 years ago so I thought that was special! I only just started it a few days ago so it is stitching up quickly!!!! The fabric is pretty true to color and the thread is a Thread Gatherer Silk 'n Colors in Blue Violet. The heart will be on a pink fabric with a complimenting thread. I already have it picked out but not handy at the moment.......

I have a picture of my January 1st start as well It's Winter Moon by Shepard's Bush..... I am bit leary of it since it's my first SB and band sampler. But one of the ladies in my wednesday group has promised guidance along the way.

On another note there is a new Mirabilia Bulletin Board now. It's called Mirabilia Stitchers . It's a lot of fun and I've been named moderator to the Angels and Cherubs forum so come have a visit!!!!

I am grateful for feeling better day by day......
