2 more projects finished!

So I finally finished Dog Lessons, like 6 weeks ago LOL (April 15), framed it, and it is ready for the greyhound auction!

I love it. I need to do ay least 1 more (for myself of course :) ) I have all the stuff to do it but I find it hard to start all over again...someday....

After I finished that I started on another smaller project. "Bitter Luigi" found on the Sprite Stitch blog. I finished that last week :)

I bought some black evenweave on ebay a few weeks ago, with intentions to do a couple small projects on it but haven't got around to starting anything new yet. Maybe today...

Another update

Progress so far...

Update on Dog Lessons

So here is where I am as of a couple days ago. I am actually a bit further than this...I have "lots" and the dog bowl finished (that go in front of "of water" :) I'm just too lazy to take a new picture haha.

New Stitch, Dog Lessons for People

So I started a new project the other night (I never seem to take a break). I'm doing Lizzie Kates's Dog Lessons for People. I love it so much, I love my dogs and stitching about dogs seems like such a good match :) I will probably end up making at least 3 of these: the first one I am donating to the annual online auction that my greyhound adoption group does every year. It needs to be done for May so first one goes to that. Second will probably be for myself :) can't make a few of these and not keep one for myself haha. Third will probably be a Christmas gift for a couple good friends of mine who have lots of fur babies of their own. I've got 1.5 of 7 lines done so far, so it shouldn't take too long to finish it (it's my 3rd night working on it). This is my first time working with even weave as well, I like it. It looks so much better I find when there is exposed fabric.

Adventure Island 2 stitch...5400 stitched later...finished!

Yay I finally finished it last night! 

I love it...Just need to mount it somehow. Adventure Island is one of my favorite NES games...I used to play it all the time as a kid. There aren't many (or any) patterns out there for AI so I put this one together myself. Turned out pretty good for my first pattern :)

Taking foreverrrr

So my new project that I'm working on is larger in terms of # of stitches than the other 2. It's 5400 stitches with a blue background. I hate the blue. I'm starting to hate the thought of the color blue LOL I'm almost half done the background (the image itself is finished). I haven't had much time to work on it with work and housework and everything else in between. My goal is to finish it by the end of next week. Let's see if I can do it....

First "actual" post...

So I started the blog but haven't posted anything legitimate yet haha. So I will post a few pics of the couple projects I have done since Christmas...

Mario Across the Ages...

pattern found on Sprite Stitch

Betty Boop

Pattern found here

I still need to mount them somehow...either frame them or figure something else out. The odd sizes make it a challenge.

I'm working on a new project right now, almost finished, but I won't post pics until it's all done :)
