Been Crocheting

I have crocheted a scarf for each of my two granddaugthers and one for my youngest daughter. The two little ones are red and fuzzy, the one for my teen is pink. I am working on another one and it is purple and fuzzy. These will be for Christmas. I finihsed the stitching on my Partridge in a Pear Tree but I never got the beads ordered so its not stuffed and on my tree. Life is pretty busy around here so I have not had alot of stitching time. Getting the Christmas scarfs finished was a hugh goal for me. After the purple one is done I have a blue one to make. I'm running out of time! lol I know I will get the purple one done and the blue one is going to be cutting it close. Schools closed 2 hours early Monday and we were home Tuesday and today because of icy roads. We are suppose to get some freezing rain/snow mix today. The high is suppose to be 31 so I don't think we will be going tomorrow either. That's fine with me, I love snow days! Unfortunately, I can't take a pic of the scarfs because my camara has bit the dust. Maybe I'll get a new one for Christmas! "Hey Santa! I need a new camera!!"

Another Finish!

Bent Creek Zipper Kit: Snow is in the Air is finished! I am going to put it in a small frame.

Holiday Snapper Finished!

Bent Creek Holiday Snapper Series is finished! I am going to make it into a pillow.

A New Finish

I have a new finish to add to my 2008 Finishes! Can't post a pic. until it is with its new owner. It is a bookmark. I used a pattern from one of my Cross Country Stitching magazines. After a few of my own alterations, it is completed. This is my favorite magazine. I love the colors and the charts. I did not follow my rotation yesterday so no update on the Traveler. I have worked on my small UFO's, Holiday Snapper and Rocky Mt. Christmas, also the bookmark this past week. I was going to work on The Traveler yesterday but I had such a bad headache I was afraid I would have to frog out everything I put in. So I worked on Holiday Snapper and just like about an hour having the July square finished. I do plan on working on The Traveler today if all goes well. For the most part, I have stuck to my rotation. I know it has helped keep me motivated and 'on task'.

Summer Sampler Finished!

Summer Sampler is Finished! This is not a very good picture but it was the best I could get. I am going to frame it and give it to my grandson. I am currently working on a UFO which is Starlight Snowman by The Stitchworks. Its almost finished.

Pillows stuffed!

I have the 3 pillows stuffed and ready to be given to my grandchildren! They look really good. Sad it took me almost 2 years to get them finished! I will have to get my daughters to take pics. since my camera decided not to work today. I have also framed my "Life's A Stitch". It looks very nice. I am trying to 'finish' some of my stitching. It is turning into quite an unfinished pile of cross stitching. I have a few more ideas I am going to work on this afternoon while I watch the Harry Potter dvds.
