I did finish one little cross stitch months after starting it.  Holiday Surprises by The Trilogy.  
I just made a little pillow.  Nothing exciting.  I did make a couple changes to the pattern.  I used a couple buttons that look like presents.  The toys that were meant to be stitched there were sort of creepy looking.  I suspect it was only because they were so tiny.
I also finished May's A Year in Chalk. These are such a struggle but I'm plodding along.
As I mentioned previously...I made a bunch of table runners from border fabrics.  They're all just made by cutting identical lengths then sub-cutting using a 60' triangle. 
They all need their bindings stitched down. 
I think this is my favorite. 
On the quilting front...I was working away on another WIP I finally assembled this past spring when I ran out of thread. 
So, another project drops into limbo-land.  I've ordered thread but may not get back to work until after July 4th. 
We will have a very busy holiday weekend as we move The Boy Wonder into his apartment. 
Exciting times.

Oh yes, exciting times!
ReplyDeleteA sweet pillow. I love the chalk series.
I chuckled when I read about the "creepy looking" toys, Pam--I have a couple of the old PS Santas that had some charted, too!
ReplyDeleteGreat finish and hang in there with the chalk pieces--it will be nice to have them for the full year.
Good luck with the big move this weekend--I know he'll be glad for a woman's touch!
