an interesting couple of weeks

Well I have just been so busy in the past couple weeks, but I have found time to throw stitches in different directions. I was able to attend the last 'official' Summer Stitch at Acorns and Threads. They have been so much fun to be at. Considering my crazy schedule it's been great to have weekly mini-vacations and I've probably gotten more stitching done than I would have this summer.



Well, this is a re-start. I started BoInk-ing (Ink Circles: "Book of Ink Circles") when the project started over a year ago: I got a bit of Barfy done as well as some of the frame in that corner when I decided I disliked it and pulled the whole thing out. That was the "Saturday of Shag" - I had so many bits of black thread/fuzz everywhere!

This is one strand of DMC 3371 over 2. I love how this is turning out and I am planning to do this pattern in browns and blues, though I haven't selected all the colors yet.








I've made some more progress on Chatelaine: "Alhambra Garden". I'm onto a second color! Yes, I'm celebrating the small advances.

I love this color fabric more every time I stitch on it. (Lakeside Linen 36 ct: Vintage River Willow)










A start!! This is the second page in "My Stitching Album" by Jeannette Douglas - Milanese Moment. It's going rather quickly at this point. I love the colors in this page! So bright and cheery.










This is a fun stitch. The stars are coming along and I spied pinwheels further down! Tension is something I'm getting a bit nervous about, but it seems to be going ok.

  1. These are all gorgeous, Nadia! We need to get our stitch'n'bitch set up so you can work on these at school and we can see your progress all the time. ;-)
