Happy Dance! Woot, Woot!

My first UFO of the year is done and I am still dancing here in Maryland! I just finished the last stitches of Lizzie Kate's Merry Friends which I started I think around 2004. The regular stitching had went pretty quick but the Wisper thread is what caused this piece to land in the bottom of my sewing bag to begin with. However, this afternoon I finished up the Wisper thread, added the back stitching and ~Viola!~ I have my first UFO finish of the year!

I have also completed 2 other projects so far this year; a ornament for a Stitch-A-Long in my Yahoo group, Every Stitch Counts and also Prairie Schooler's Autumn. Currently working on Prairie Schooler's Peace on Earth. Updates on these pieces are on my blog which you can find here.

Happy Stitching! Now on to pick up another UFO and see if I'm still 'Up for a Challenge'.....

Feeling challenged???? - Carol

Hi everyone! I joined this challenge because I definitely have quite a few UFO's sitting around that need some TLC. Currently I am working on one of my oldest UFOs I have and hopefully will have a finish sometime this weekend on it. It is from Lizzie Kate and is called Merry Friends. Stitching is done with over dyed threads and a fuzzy thread called Wisper. The overdyed thread work was done long ago but the Wisper thread was the reason this piece made it to the bottom of the bag in the first place. Wish me luck and looking forward to seeing everyone's progress on this year's challenge!


I have a personal blog here that you can see my other stitching updates along with my knitting. Until next time...... ~ Carol
