Progress

So after losing my mojo, I embarked on a new project. I started ok and as I mentioned previously mentioned the thread was the wrong colour.  I had decided to just carry on and I did. But when I got almost to the end I decided that I really didnt like it..so I frogged it and restitched it!!

My mojo might just be on its way back....here's a pic of what I got done yesterday after the frogging...

    At least, being at the start, it was easy to frog! I did a Noah's Ark for someone once: http://www.crossstitchworld.com/cross-stitch-detail.php?RecordID=DW9436

    Being not a particularly religious person, I do seem to end up doing a lot of religious projects for people! The giant jesus head will haunt me forever! 75 colors of brown!

So lets get up to date...

Some stitchy finishes this year....

This was completely new - a pattern by Durene Jones - the idea is that it is a FFO stocking. It was a quick stitch and I loved all of it except stitching the white.

This was a new start and a finish this year, its Bothy Threads row of dinosaurs - i had some issues with this and made some design changes. It also needs to be fully finished along with the rest.

This was in a magazine and I want to say it was designed by Emma Congdon...? when FFO it should be an envelope to put your childs letters to santa in.

10 things about stitching with plastic canvas (30)

Okay so that is a ridiculously long title, not catchy at all, but I wanted to be clear...hehehe...
**I changed the name of the post! lol Nothing lasts forever...but trust me...it was really long!**
So this is it! My final list post...yes, yes, I took my time but its here!
Its actually a combination post, because whilst stitching this weekend my brain was whirring away and thinking about the task in hand and I made some notes in my mind as to what I would write in my next blog post. Well, after I had been mentally wittering away it did occur to me that I was liable to be accused of teaching my grandmother to suck eggs unless I made a point of stating that it really is aimed at beginners. However, those cross stitch lifers who so very kindly comment on my posts may have some extra tips too and feel free to add them.
So less of the waffling....but before I start the list...a little more waffling....
My last blog post was about the Christmas Ornie SAL that I have joined and will be parti…
