There's only 1 WIP right now and that is The Lord's Prayer by My Big Toe and I hope to have that finished in a week or so.

All Kitted Up and Ready To Go!

For several years now, I've been kitting up designs to stitch during those golden "retirement years".  I spent the day going through part of my stash and made a list of those pieces that are kitted and ready for the first stitch.  Even though I didn't look through everything, I think I should stop making kits; I think you'll agree with me when you see the following list.

Guess you were able to figure out I love the Christmas holiday, huh?  There are several more stocking kits hiding somewhere (as of right now, I need 17 stockings) but I can't figure out where I hid them. I've also got a partial cross stitch UFO list to post

Stay tuned - tomorrow I start making the lists for quilting.

Progress Days 6-21

It's been 21 days since I showed an update on The Lord's Prayer.  Some days I didn't have enough strength to hold the q-snaps much less put any stitches in, some days I was lucky to stitch for 10 minutes before I had to put it down and other times I sat and stitched for most of the day.  Needless to say, I'm not exactly sure how many days I have been stitching on this one.


Here's the current photo:

As you can see, I'm a little past half done.

Doctor Visit

Well I finally know why I couldn't get over this cold - it's not a cold.  We won't know which it is until the blood work gets back but it's either atypical pneumonia or whooping cough.  I'm completely whipped by this thing so not sure how much progress will get done on The Lord's Prayer in the next few days but will get back to it as soon as possible.

Thanks to everyone for all your comments; they help me keep going.

Progress Days 4 and 5

Today is day 11 and I think this is the worst cold I've ever had; tomorrow I'm calling the doc.  I've only had 2 days where I felt like stitching since the last post and I forgot to take a progress photo after day 4 so you get both days.



This one is going fast.

Progress on The Lord's Prayer - Day 3

I've got a cold and I was so stuffy I couldn't sleep.  Got up at 3:30 AM and started stitching and stitched off and on all day so got quite a bit done.  Take a look:
 

I don't know if I'll do any stitching today as this cold won't let go  and it really has me down; just might spend the day in bed.

Progress Day 2

This is after 2 days stitching.

I started a new cross stitch piece yesterday from My Big Toe titled The Lord's Prayer.  I'll post a photo after each stitching day; this is where I stand after the first day.



I'm spending today stitching so there will be an updated photo tomorrow.


Merry Christmas,
