Updates!!

My poor neglected blog! I haven't posted since the fall, that's pretty horrible. Guess I got sidetracked by life. I need to get to bed but I will try to catch up on my recent and current projects first.

I joined the Fair and Square blog a few months ago and participated in Round #11 as my first round. I stitched these squares for Nicky R.:...and received these in exchange:
This is one of LHN's "Little Women" designs. This was so perfect for me, because I LOVE to read. Now, I am stitching two sets of squares, for Round #12 and the Spring round. Can't post pictures of the progress right now though, they have to be a surprise!

In other stitching, I started and finished "Spring Has Come" by the Prairie Schooler. I am hoping to get it framed next week:

This was a blast to stitch, and I am looking forward to hanging it up in honor of the season! I will also be starting the "Summer Breeze" design soon.


I also took on a bit of a challenge and started my first HAED project, "Black Cat." I am stitching on 28 ct. Monaco and it is very slow going. I haven't worked an over-one project with such tiny stitches before! I haven't accomplished much yet but here is my progress so far:
Like I said, slow going! No cats are immediately obvious right now. But hopefully this gigantic project will help me be more regular with my blogging. I will need some encouragement with tracking my progress!
Off to bed for now, hopefully I will have some more work to post tomorrow.
Good night!
