Thanksgiving

I hope you all have a very Happy and safe Thanksgiving. I plan on stitching today and watching "HOUSE" on Tv. I will try to come back on later today/tonight and post my wips and finishes if that word applies to my situation.lol. Take care and have a great day everyone,Kimberly   

I"m off to stitch

I'm going to work on my various LHN pieces.  I will try to scan in wips later tonight if my daughter and time permits. Take care,Kimberly

LHN Reading finally finished

Well, I finally have a good stitching story.lol. After all my recent mishaps stitching lately, I have a good ending to this week. I'm soo glad to get this one done. It should have been done months ago. I dont know why I have stitching a.d.d. and startitis,but I do.I start stuff and then I find or see something else that looks like a fun stitch and I kit it up and start and the rest is history. I know I'm not alone in this.lol.  Thanks for looking at my finish. I hope to have LHN loving you always finished tomorrow or by Sunday so I can send the pattern to Kim B ,she won my contest to receieve the pattern when I'm done with it and I still owe Ginny her pattern as well. I'm terrible I tell you , but hey atleast I admit my failures.Night all,Kimberly   

well since I ruined Sherzo

I decided to start something"new"lol. I am now working on Winter Sampler by Little House Needleworks on mushroom fabric, so I dont have to worry about white linen getting dirty.lol. I will post a pic later today if time permits between work this afternoon and choir practice tonight.I got about half the gingerbread man stitched lastnight. Take care all and have a great day.Kimberly 

Well I'm back to show you where I messed up

If you look closely at the pic(wip) you will notice that I stupidly added about 5 stitches going down the stem of the flower that are stitched in the red thread.The 5 red stitches arent the problem, the problem is I then added 5 more going down to start the lace like stitching at the bottom and sides of the chart. I have to either rip out the flower and leaves and start anew or rip out the lace like bottom or ditch the whole thing and start over. I have no idea what I want to do right now with it. I started a new pic though it is Whispered by the Wind's Scherzo. I will post a pic of that next.lol. Thanks for looking,Kimberly

updated pic of the old doll wip

Dont laugh too hard, but this afternoon it was raining here in TN and I was a little sleepy when I was stitching this afternoon and I fell asleep holding my cross stitch and some strings were dangling. I woke up when I was having my cat tugging on my piece trying to get my strings off. Thankfully I woke up when I did and the cat didnt hurt my stitching. It has been a long time since i fell asleep during the day, I guess I was tired.lol Here is the old doll. I will try to scan the rest of my wips soon.
