Hello everyone!
Thanks for all your well wishes and hugs! I'm feeling a bit better today and am not using the kleenex by the boxful...although I've gone through quite a bit. While I was sick, I did stitch on quite a few of my projects. I sort of had stitching ADHD and would pick up one, put it down then pick up another. I took photos today while it was brighter out, however, during my importing session, my computer froze and all the photos were deleted.
The stitching photos I'm not too upset about those photos but there were some videos of a man playing some beautiful guitar music at my Uncle's house on Friday night, and now I have lost the videos of him playing. Luckily, my Uncle and Aunt got the impromptu concert on their iphones and will send me their version of the concert. This man, known as Jan de Chloe, wrote a biography on Boris Perrot, who was the guitar teacher of the famous classical guitarist Julian Bream. My grandfather also studied under Dr. Perrot and our family contributed many photos, anecdotes and historical papers to the book. There are a couple of parts about my grandfather in the book which was fascinating to read about. Here's the link to the book if anyone is interested. Boris Perrot: A Life with a Guitar.
Onto my sick stitching. Please pardon the horrible photos. My camera's flash is not working very well and the daylight disappeared for me when I had to retake the photos. I did finish a really old stitch for Valentine's Day...finally. I think I stitched this two years ago!!
The pillow looks lumpy but it's really not that bad. I think I needed to add some of the new stuffing I bought to have made it more full. Well, it's finished and I'm happy about it!! It's a freebie pattern from The Sampler Girl.
I finished the RAK's too and thankfully, they turned out WAY better than my finishes. Phew!!!
I finished Tweet today too although I may replace the bow on top. It's not really how I wanted it to turn out. I think I should've waited until I was completely better to finish some of my stitches!!
I stitched more on Hannah and was a wee bit concerned about the right side coming to close to the edge. Luckily it's got about 3-4 inches leeway however, I thought I measured the fabric perfectly and figured out exactly where to start. I obviously counted incorrectly because there is a lot more fabric on the left than the right. Thankfully, there's just enough on the right to get it framed! I hope!!
I stitched some of the outlines for the cup handle on TeaBathFairy. I enjoy making outlines on HAED's and not stitch them in 10 by 10 parts. That's just too confusing for me to do!!
Some wee progress on Baked Goods.
And a blurry photo of Titus sleeping by the heat register. He really loves his heat!!
That's all for now! I need to go rest now after all the energy I spent finishing.
Hugs to all!!
