Quilty Neighborhood

Finally finished this one! 

Yay! Happy dance!

 I stitched and ripped this last chart many times before I was satisfied! 

I have finished the charting and this will be off to the distributor on Monday!

 Here is the entire piece before framing:

The final chart, Covered Bridge will be in my Etsy shop next week as an e-pattern. It will be in shops within the next couple of weeks!

Slow down...I wanna get off!!

a cheerful pot of flowers!

My life has been like a runaway train lately!

The entire month of August and September were almost entirely given over to the wedding. With my daughter in school, working and interning she didn't have much time for wedding preparations! And on top of that we had to be all crafty and make everything ourselves...um a little like re-inventing the wheel.

THEN...

the minute the wedding was over I got sick! 

And started suffering from insomnia!!

WOW!

A double whammy!

Yesterday was the firsy day I began to feel like a human again!

LOL!

While I was sick I picked up my cross stitch, for the first time in 

OVER A YEAR!

Which is completely and totally inexcusable, since I have a serial sampler design that is not even finished. :(

I'm so ashamed! Bad! Bad designer!

But I DID pick it up again with renewed vigor for getting it finished!

It is the very last installment of the 

Quilty Newighborhood Sampler

Here is the sampler so far:

See!  Almost done! Last chart for this series. So, its coming! Its on its way. It just took a 2 week bout of the nastiest virus I have had in a long time to get me back to it!

Quilty Neighborhood

I am halfway done with this piece now. I think it is really shaping up, don't you?

The forth chart is this series will be available at Hoffman Distributing and on my website next week. It is called Dandelion Cabin.

This whole piece is starting to remind me of my living room-which is red and yellow!

LOL!

Tiny little progress and a sneak peek!

Here is the tiny bit of progress I made on my Stacy Nash piece that I started during the Crazy 15 challenge. It is only a very little progress, as the night I was working on it I was so tired I kept vegging out!

And here is a sneak peek on my original design, Quilty Neighborhood. The first 3 houses have been released as charts and I am working on the 4th. Each chart comes with the border design for all of the houses in case you want to do it all as one piece like I am doing here. It is starting to shape up nicely, the sunset background really is starting to look nice. What do you think?
