Almost finished with my third of fifteen

I am so excited about the fact that I will finish my third of fifteen this week-end, I just have to add beads and finish the straight stitching around the framing.
I am going to use beads for the rainbows, i stitched the small rainbow and found it look a little to different for my liking.

I plan on framing this maybe tomorrow.
I am going to start working on one of my silk projects tomorrow or sunday I had to frog because  I was off by two stitches, darn frog.

 

I think you can see where I pulled all the threads I had already put in,  I  just hate to frog, but in order to get a better finish I had to do it, I hope not to make a mistake again it is hard to pull threads  from silk gauze.

Happy Stitching

A little progress

Happy day everyone, I have finished one of my 15, this is the Just Cross Stitch 2009  magazine Christmas ornament I started a long time ago, now i just need to put it together and add a braid around the edging.

I love this pattern, the beads really add depth to the finish.

This is a Lavander Wings 2004 Automatic Customer Exclusive Design i bought at a stash reduction auction  last feb, today I finished stitching the framing, I often ask myself why I start something and put it aside only to be called back to finishe it, this is really a pretty pattern the colors are not showing up very well, so sorry about the crappy picture, I hope to have this finished by saturday evening.

Happy Stitching everyone, if you have not challenged yourself  this is great way to finish your ufo's just join the challenge it is not to late in the year.

Blessings

Catherine
