Bird Joy 5

Finished the stitching on bird joy just need to put it together which may or may not happen this weekend it all depends on Saturday. Hubby is having more testing done at the hospital on Saturday depending on the results will depend on if it gets done. 

I took a picture of my next project seen below need to get the thread all split up may get done tomorrow maybe not.

Elegant Geisha and Mr DNA finishes

It's been a rough few weeks something I do  not want to fully go into on this blog particular blog. Lot of health stuff that only stitching see,s to help though I haven't stitched at all during this weekend. For details go  here. First I finished Elegant Geisha about two weeks ago.

Overall it came out really well. The knots in her hair took me the longest to do. I practiced for about a week before I felt comfortable enough to try it on her hair. It wasn't easy but I think they turned out OK. The original frame I bought for it I didn't like, but the second one I found out at Wal Mart of all places worked out pretty well for only 8 bucks.

 Lastly while I was dealing with hospital stuff for my hubby, as mentioned look at post I have linked above for details, I tried to keep myself busy by making presents for the year. I made the cross stitch item below. I found the pattern here: http://larabrown.net/crafting/bingo-dino-cross-stitching/  It was fun and not to hard to make. I will be putting this into a shadow box and adding amber with a bug in it for my bother who collects dinosaur teeth. Well that's about it for today. Hopefully I post sooner then the last time I posted, but with how the month is going I doubt it.

Update on elegant geisha plus another finish

Boy am I really good at neglecting this place!  I put the elegant geisha for a while because I joined a nerd swap so made a walking dead fan art. I bought the pattern off of etsy and I ended up putting it into a shadow box because of the size of the project.

I actually really liked the look of it in the shadow box! Think I will do this for my geisha especially since she has French knots and a special knot in her hair. The showdown box won't crunch the knots.

My Giesha is close to just needing to be back stitched one color left off half stitches. Those shouldn't take me to much longer, then in to the backstitching and daisy stitches! And lastly the knots. Really love how she is looking. 

I really love cherry blossoms and the background with it yup love it. Not sure how much stitching will get done this weekend. Have a project to work on with my son, hubby is working today and need to go mother shopping tomorrow. So I'll be happy with getting the half stitches done this weekend.

Grumpy cat

Little annoyed just wrote this up and posted it and it didn't post it -_-. 

Bought this pattern on etsy from sugarstitchbyellie shop. I modified it slightly changed the balloon from red to rainbow. Used thread bought from http://threadpickerz.co.uk/ color lei. Also added the bow to the bottom of the balloon to give it a little 3D effect. Stitched this up for a friend.

Kitty tree finished

Here is my progress of the Kitty tree ornament from the last few days first here is a picture before back stitching.

Now one after back stitching which I did this morning :).

Lastly a picture of Kitty tree and Kitty stocking ornaments fully cut out. The tree originally had a yellow Pom Pom to put on the tree but I felt that was tacky and bought a yellow star button to put on it instead. Happy with my choice. 

On to my next project a grumpy cat magnet for a coworker. :)

Kitty stocking finished

I finished the Kitty stocking a few days ago and started the next one which I messed up big time so no pictures on the Kitty with the tree until I finish unstitching the part I messed up. Yes my error was bad enough frogging doesn't help oh well.
