7/5/10

This is where I currently am with Frosty Knotgarden. The two areas on the left with the branches just need a little backstitching. The two on the right need some more PTB but they shouldn't take very long. Then a few more Rhodes stithes around the outside and some beads and I'll move to the bottom of part 2. Part 3 is already out so I better get stitching!

Here's where I left One Nation Friday. I have the first stripe done and started outlining the second. I spent a lot of time with this one over the last week. The boys have had swim lessons all week so I basically had 45 minutes of uninterrupted stitching.

Sorry this is sideways. I need to figure out how to fix that. This one just needs the lacing finished and some glass and will be ready to hang on the wall. I spent a good part of the morning pinning it. All those straight lines will give me away if I'm not careful!


Honor and Glory is framed! I picked up spacers and some more foam core Friday and it's ready to go on the wall. I have another identical frame and enough spacers for when I complete mine since this one is supposed to go to the boys' sitter. I've shown it to her. She just doesn't know it is going to live at her house for Christmas.
I think the 13 pints of beans I canned this morning are finally cooled off so I need to take those downstairs and start another load of laundry.
Later!

The framed pieces are beautiful.
