Great is Thy Faithfulness

This should be finished tomorrow.yippee. Here is what I got done today

Blessed

I am blessed by 2 stitcher followers. I received the Cucumber thread I needed today from Barbara K and the Grape Arbor from Missy. Thanks to these 2 wonderful ladies, I now can finish"Great is Thy Faithfulness"  See even God shows up in the little things like floss fairies. Thanks again you 2.Kimberly

Well this stinks

I was working on "Great is Thy Faithfulness" yesterday and went to use the color "Grape Arbor" and for some reason, I don't have any left. I either lost it in one of my traveling stitching bags or in my couch,chair,etc.What a bummer this is for me.  I am also getting really low on the color"cucumber".errrrrrrr. I guess I will work on something else until I get a chance to run to my not so local needlework store.  I had plans to be a good girl and this project done so I could start on "How Great Thou Art by My Big Toe Designs.

Update on Great is Thy Faithfulness

Sorry I let my followers down

I have been so busy with life that I haven't had any time to stitch or blog. I hope that will change today. I plan on stitching this evening after the hubby and I return from fishing.  Between 2 jobs and school in the evening and being active in my church, there hasn't been much time for smoking needles .lol I hope you all are doing well and getting lots of progress done on your projects. I will try to be a good girl this evening and atleast post some updates of what I am working on or starting to work on.  Take care,Kimberly .

I had too much fun at work lastnight. I have to share with you all. I was pretending to be Minnie Pearl at the assisted living facility where I work. The residents just loved it.lol

Great is Thy Faithfulness updated 1026

Great is Thy Faithfulness update pic 10 20

I pot this out again tonight and stitched some on it. I hope to have this one done by the end of the week. Wish me luck. With working and going to school, it is hard to stitch as much as I would like. Thanks for looking,Kimberly

Mad Blue Bird Oct 20

Mad Blue Bird update Oct 19

Disappointment

What a disappointment. I went to Michael's Arts and Crafts tonight.  Need I say more?  There was like nothing left but a few kits and some dmc threads left. They no longer carry hoops,patterns,most evenweave material etc. I walked around the store looking for "other stuff" that I could do that isn't cross stitch.All I ended up buying was a skein of sugar and cream yarn and a crochet hook.lol. Isn't that just sad?  I like to crochet,but I Love to stitch,stitch and stitch.  I guess I will be doing most of my purchasing online or through catalog orders.  Oh well, I will get off my soap box now. Back to the regular program. I got a few more stitches in my " Mad Blue Bird" this evening, but not enough to take a picture again.  I will try to show a new update tomorrow or Friday. Have a great evening,Kimberly

Mad Blue Bird update again....

A little more done on Mad Blue Bird

I got a bit more in tonight. Thanks for looking.Kimberly

Mad blue bird wip

 I had started this one  a few months ago and only had the blue in the picture stitched. I pulled it out and started working on it this weekend and this is how much I got done. I can't wait till he starts looking like an actual birdie.lol. Thanks for looking,Kimberly

Happy Friday everyone

Well, the day we have all been waiting for is finally here.FRIDAY.  I haven't had much stitching time this week due to work and school . I will update my pictures this evening and hopefully be able to stitch some tomorrow and Sunday and have another stitching update for Monday. I hope you all have a blessed day and I hope you get some stitching done this weekend as well. Oh yeah, by the way,"Happy Fall Yall"
Kimberly

Stitch by Hinzeit

I started this little one today after church and I finished it today too. I surprised myself. lol.I used threads that were leftover from old kits that included threads from Crescent Colours ,weeks dye works and Gentle Arts.. It was a fun stitch. Thanks for looking.Kimberly.

More stitched on North Wind

Well I didn't stitch  as much as I had planned yesterday. I ended up reading " Coming Home" by Karen Kingsbury and I couldn't put it down.  I stitched some last night while watching a movie called "The Ward". It was a pretty good movie, full of suspense, so I couldn't keep looking at my stitching.  Here is a picture of what I did manage to get done. I will update again later this evening. I plan on stitching after church today. Have a wonderful and peaceful Sunday everyone.Kimberly

I will be stitching today

I have done some more on LHN'S North wind piece. I will do some more stitching today and put up a new picture. It is a yucky,rainy day here in TN so I may as well take advantage of it and stitch.  It is also getting cold here .brrr. lol  Something tells me we will have a very cold winter this year. Not too thrilled about that. I am a Florida girl after all  I hope you all have a blessed day. Come back by this evening or tomorrow to see my new update. Kimberly

Update of North wind

Some more of North Wind  by LHN .Thanks for looking..

I fell asleep

I was so eager to stitch on my "North Wind" piece by Little House Needleworks last night and all I managed to stitch was the leaf. lol. I fell asleep. Thankfully, I laid my needle down on my stitching that was in my lap and I didn't drop it somewhere.lol. I hope to have more luck tonight with stitching.lol. I hope you all have a blessed day. Take care and thanks for stopping in.Love and stitches,Kimberly.

The North Wind by Little House Needleworks

I started another one last night. This is going to stitch up fast I think. I started over on the tree branch and went down and started stitching the leaf. Thanks for looking,Kimberly

I have to work today

Hi blogger friends, I probably won't get too much stitching done today or tomorrow, I have to work.If all my residents get to bed at a decent hour and my eyes aren't too sleepy by then, I may get a few stitches in. I am taking my "Great is Thy Faithfulness" piece and my "Sheltering Tree" piece with me just in case. lol. I hope you all have a great weekend and enjoy your blessings. There are many to be counted , that is for certain.
Signing off now, Kimberly

Bloom by My Big Toe is finished

I did this one up in less than 3 days.I work  , so I mainly stitch in the evenings.  This was a quick one and I love the colors the pattern called for.Thanks for looking,Kimberly

I feel so unloved

I do my best to post on here, to put pictures on here and yet, nobody comments or participates in drawings I have etc. What is the deal?lol.  When I lurk on someone elses blog , I usually post something. If they have it set up where I can't post , well then, I can't . If I am able to, I do.  I love to look at other's cross stitch pieces and appreciate all the work that goes in to blogs. Oh well, rant over. Just had to put it out there.By for now. I am off to stitch if anyone seems to care, which I doubt.

Great is Thy Faithfulness wip

I picked Great is Thy Faithfulness back up today and stitched on it. This is how much I have done now.Thanks for looking,Kimberly

I have been a bad girl this year, all the ones I started in January for the 15 piece challenge have all fallen by the way side.lol. I managed to finish 2 of them and have been starting and finishing others instead or just "starting" others.oopsy.  Don't hold it against me.lol.  Take care and thanks for visiting my blog.

I will put a wip picture as soon as I have something worthwhile to show you. I Hope  all you reading this are having a great summer and are doing lots and lots of stitching too. Take care and God  Bless you and yours,Kimberly

Live Simply

Well, I got the thread"cucumber 123" for my project "Live Simply" by Goode Huswife. I am having problems though. The color sent to me seems to be too light and won't match the thread I had used thus far. I am having to tweed a dark dmc green with a strand of the cucumber to make it "almost" match.bummer. I will have it done by tomorrow evening and will post my results. I'm not too worried about how it comes out as I am hanging it up in my hobby room anyway. I hope you have a blessed day. Thanks for stopping in to see my blog. It means alot to me when people view my blog and especially when they leave a comment just to say"hello"  Kimberly

A kind hearted woman helped me out with needed threads

A really sweet lady on 123 stitch board sent me one and it will be here by Monday. I am soo thankful for this.  I can't wait to finish my project. I think it may be the fastest stitched project for me.Bummer I ran out of thread or it would be done already. Oh well such is life.  I am getting irritated with this new blog set up crap. I am having issues making my blog nice like others. I may end up getting rid of blog spot and starting another one. Any suggestions friends?  Let me know what else is out there , oh and one other thing,it needs to be a free blog too. Take care and thanks for stopping by,Kimberly

What a bummer. I started "Live Simply" by Goode Huswife yesterday and I am nearly finished and I ran out of thread. I was using Olde Willow Stitchery color #123 cucumber. If you have this in your stash and are willing to sell it, I would love to hear from you.

   

I got a little more done on my eagles in flight piece. It is a pain in the neck doing so many darn half stitches. Here is what I got done this evening. Pardon the quality, I took it with my phone camera.

Here is my new start. I started from the left hand upper corner for a change. I usually start in the middle somewhere. I think this will make my project go faster.The pattern is in 6 pages too,so it only made sense to do a page at a time, which makes it less overwhelming.Thanks for looking. I hope to keep an update going on here,Kimberly

I started this one for my hubby last night and I am hoping to have it done by September 17th for our 21st anniversary. Wish me luck.lol. Thanks for looking,Kimberly

YaY,it is my weekend off . I am going to stitch,stitch and did I say stitch???????????  It has been a long time coming,believe me.

I am doing nothing family oriented this weekend,unless they want to sit by me while I stitch.lol. Enjoy your weekend everyone.Love and stitches,Kimberly
