Despite all the interference with stitching for the International Hermit and Stitch Weekend, I did manage to get motivated and get some pieces finished this week:
October Bead Journal Project - "Bat Bird":
Take a Stitch Tuesday #124 - Beaded Fern Stitch (shown here along with the two rows I did for #134, Fern Stitch):
I also made a start on the sporting themed piece I want to enter in next year's fair, a John Clayton golf chart. Lots of colors, lots of vertical and horizontal half cross stitch but no backstitching. Should be interesting! One color (DMC 666) completed:
And I worked on the Roll Your Own mandala, "Bride", almost completing color #2:
I read through Lesson Three in the PillowPalooza class form Funk & Weber but have yet to complete this week's assignment.
No progress on "Save the Stitches"...
This next weekend is as booked up as last weekend was: dentist on Thursday for the final fitting a a new crown , which probably means I won't be worth much Thursday afternoon and evening! Friday through Sunday is our quilt guild retreat. I need to get something together to work on for those few days and I will probably take my traveling needlepoint with me as well, so th weekend won't be a total loss, stitchery-wise.
