New Blog Design

Please tell me what you think. I appreciate all the peeks at my blog, please chime in and leave me a comment. I have spent too much time on it today. I am not happy with the size and the fonts. Will try again tomorrow. Let me know!!

Por favor dejen me saber que tal les parece mi nuevo blog. No me gusta del todo pero ya le he dedicado varias horas. No me gusta el taman~o de las letras.

This is what I really want to stitch now

I got this a while ago while I was still in school and drooling to get to start it. Now I feel guilty because I have so many WIPS. I currently have an upstairs and downstairs project. Maybe this can be the project for when I tire of the other two. As long as I am stitching on something its progress right?? I like my rationale! I think it will work!!

My new baby

This is what has been taking my stitching time: the Nook I got as a graduation gift.
I have been stitching some on my The Teacher as well as on my Mary Wigham.
I am itching to start something new. I also have had some crochet time. Ever since school ended for me, I have been trying to focus on one project but alas I am like a kid in a candy store. After so much time of no "me-time" I dont know what to do with myself now.

Summertime!!

Graduation is over, all the guests have gone, have cleaned up the house again and have actually had some stitching time after so long. I itch to start something new but I know better. I am rotating two pieces: The Mary Wigham and The Teacher. I decided to have an upstairs and downstairs piece. I also got a neew DMC storage bag and some new needles.
I also want to make a covered altoids box so maybe that will be a way to introduce a new project but not take away from the two biggies I really want to finish.

Some Progress

So I did get some stitching done over spring break!!! Not as much as I would have like but is it ever?? I managed to come down with a cold/flu that robbed me of valuable stitching time.

I also stitched some on Red White and Blue by Cricket collection as a soldier memorial for a friend who lost her hubby in Iraq. No pics yet. I ordered that pattern and Vierlanden Sampler Anna by Stickideen von der Wiehenburg. Need some fabric suggestions on this one.Ordered a bit of fabric at the same time I ordered these patterns and not crazy about it, its a little too loose for me. I realized I like a stiffer linen or evenweave. Will take suggestions

Spring Break!!!

Hope to get some substantial amount of stitching done this week. I am off for a week from school. I still have alot of homework and some papers to work on but I am still plannning on enjoying some fun reading and some stitching time. I did get a few stitches into The Teacher.

A Big Finish and my Mary

I can now devote more time to my Mary Wigham Sampler since I finished a long time coming piece which is the Last Supper for my parents!!!!! I cant believe it took me so long
