A Mothers Kiss A Fathers Touch

Designer - Schim Schimmel

Material - 25 Count White Lugana

DMC Threads 1 x 1

12-10-2013

 

I finally got the rest of my threads for this at JoAnn Fabrics.  I am still stitching the sky yet...what you see is part of the sky..its like a round star or something...the center of it is like red or brown...I think its more like Red.  This project has 70 to 90 some colors to it.  Right now the background is all black so I have been stitching the background which is the Sky. 

 



 

Original Pattern for this project...this is what it will look like someday...

 

Thanks for looking...enjoy....

 

Happy Stitching :)

I haven't been around much though I've been busy stitching.  Mostly Hardanger patterns though for Christmas gifts (some will be for coasters and some for cards and one birthday gift in there too), but in between I have been busy trying to complete the first row of one of my favorite pieces.  It is being stitched on Charles Craft Alphabet 18ct Afghan Fabric , 2 over 1 and is the centerpiece of a cat themed afghan.  I have been working on this for a little over 2 years.  Because the fabric is pretty heavy (especially with a cat on your lap while your stitching) I tend to only work on it when the weather gets cooler.  I was going to wait till I completed page 4 and the first row, but decided it had been so long since I posted that I would show you how far I have gotten on this one.

This is how far I have gotten

This is what it will look like when finished

Thanks for looking!

Hello, Here is my new update on this model. I embroidered on ecru Aida 7, with 1 thread. Very nice embroidery MAGRES confetti pattern.

I love these models with big eyes. soon Florence

New Full Member

Thanks for letting me become a full time member.  I am from the Canadian Prairies and only discovered HAED recently.
Since then I have become quite addicted to cross stitching again.  I have finished the following  SK Logan, TT Pale Comparison, SK Fragile, BB SAL 2012 Blue Moon and QS Dragon Soul.  best wishes janet

My current projects are
Wild Rose ( Prindle ) 22 ct








   QS Pysche's Butterflies ( Wall ) 18 ct











Snow Princess ( Anderson )28 ct Tent 2 x 1

Call of the Raven

I have another finished page!
To give you an idea about the amount of stitches:
Chart is 450 x 600 = 270.000
Done: 450 x 470 = 211.500 stitches
That is 87,3 %

If I want to have it done within two years it means I have to add 2437 stitches each month. Until now I add about 1000 stitches a month. Going on like this means it won't be a finish until the year 2017 (!)

Gothic

In the winter there is always more time that I can embroider. With nice weather we are more outside and exercise more. Now it is delicious with chocolate milk and a homemade cookie to be home.
Gothic, from Marta Dahlig goes smoothly. Already two pages done.
There was also great news, we will be back grandparents next year. Lucas gets a little brother or sister. The first echoes are created and the baby is growing well.

Daisy Offerings Update Progress 11-22-2013

 

Daisy Offerings

Designer - HAED - Sandra Kuck

Material - 18 Count White Charles Craft

DMC Threads 2 x 1 Full Cross Stitch

Progress 11-22-2013

 

I finished another column today on Page 3.  I decided to take my Q Snaps off and show you what I have accomplished since I have started stitching this.  I have to do One Column at a time, One Page at a time due to the fact that the very outer edge of this goes all the way around so I have to be real careful with my columns and make sure that I get my columns in the right rows so it will be oval shape by the time I get this completely finished.  I do One Column, One Page at a time.  I stitch a 10 x 10 block each day.  The very top of this is all Confetti Stitching so sometimes it takes me 2 days to do a 10 x 10 block due to the Confetti Stitching. 

 

I am almost done with Page 3.  I have one more full column to do and than a partial column to do.  Than I will start on Page 4. 

 

There are 36 Pages total to this pattern.  It is a picture of a girl up in the sky throwing Daisy's down on Earth.  It is a really neat picture.  I am stitching the background right now. 

 

Thanks for looking...enjoy....

 

Happy Stitching

The Witching Hour Update

Well I decided to put away Lavender Moon and SK Masquerade.  I just can't get the hang of stitching on linen.  Sometime I will start them up again on 18 ct Aida.  So I am stitching on The Witching Hour finishing the top two rows on the first page.  Not much to see since it is mostly black.  I have stitched 1993 stitches so far I have the first two rows done and now working on the third.  I started in the left upper corner of the pattern. There is still not a lot to see since it is almost all black. I am stitching this one with Ivory 18 ct Aida. I really am enjoying myself stitching this one. :)

Daisy Offerings Update - 11-15-2013
