WIP Progress



It's been over a year since I've showed you how things are going with Salina Dunwoody.  At that time, I had just finished the alphabet, and the top and right side of the border were done.  Here's where she is now:

I've made a little start on the left side of the border; it's hard to see because I didn't move the threads before I took the picture.  She's probably the WIP that's closest to being finished, so I'm really going to try to work on her as much as I can.

I don't remember whether I showed you this one.  It's "Their Song", from Blackbird Designs.

Sorry the picture is sideways.  It was correctly oriented in the file, but blogger rotated it for some reason and I can't for the life of me figure out how to fix it.  I'm using the called-for GAST and Weeks fibers, and stitching it on 40-count Lakeside Linens "Pearled Barley".  Love that fabric!

 

Finally, here are a couple of quilt squares.  The first one is the nose and part of the eyes of a Wookie.  (What, you mean you can't tell?)  It's for a Love Quilts UK quilt, and when finished will be the stylized head of a Wookie.  I'm thinking it should be a fairly quick stitch; it's not due until the end of March, so that should give me plenty of time to get it finished!  The design is from Hermit Crab Stitchery on Etsy.  It's actually designed for needlepoint with Appleton wools, but I found an on-line converter and figured the DMC colors.

This last square is finished.  The design is from Connie Gee; her website is here.  This will be mailed this week.

 

It has been super windy here all day -- a good day to stay in and stitch!  Wishing everyone in the US a happy Thanksgiving, and happy stitching to all!
