Happy Tuesday! Hope you are all having a fabulous day with time to craft. I have to go to Michael's today to pick up a larger frame for Darth Vader. Yesterday, I spent a few hours pinning and lacing him and now he wont fit in the frame I bought. Since he is already prepared and I don't want to undo all that work, I am just going to get a bigger frame with a mat. I need to have it done by Friday because my sister and parents are coming up from Florida for my son, Bradley's graduation and Darth Vader is a gift for my sister and BIL, Kevin. I want to make sure they can take it back home with them.
I had a wonderful Mother's Day and I hope you did too. My 2 oldest sons Bradley and Blakley bought me some flowers and coffee. I was surprised and delighted by the gesture.
I purchased a some stitching related things from my son Brentley and my precious dog, Hana from 123stitch! I plan on doing the Hardanger free SAL by Durene Jones on the Lakeside Needlecraft website here
Just look under free charts. I also want to learn other types of hand embroidery so I found some things at Hobby Lobby. To round out my purchases, I found some fabric for embroidery on Ebay and bought from floss from Mo's Sale on Facebook.
So, lets get to some progress pictures. I decided to work on the Swans and Shears SAL from Tempting Tangles Designs last week. I have officially completed 7 out of 16 pages. I decided to stop working on it since I am at a good stopping point. I really enjoyed working on this.
