October's Here!

We know what that means. Progress report!

WIP:

Sweet Treats *kit*- I've not had a lot of time to work on this. Life has been getting in the way, but at least you can almost tell that there is a hummingbird and a few flowers, plus part of the border (See previous post for photo of what the kit looks like finished.)

New Goals for October:

Evening Milking *from Crosstitch.com*- I'm planning on stitching this for my mother. Her birthday was September 28th (Happy b-day Mom!) and I think she would love this.
Birth Announcement *from Crosstitch.com*- My friend, Shannon, just had a baby. I made her first son a birth announcement, so I plan on doing one for this one too.
Decorative cross with a B *still searching*- This was a suggestion from my boyfriend for his aunt.
Butterfly on Lilac *Crosstitch.com*- Christmas present for my boyfriend's mother. She's had a rough year.
Happiness Kanji Symbol *Crosstitch.com*- Christmas present for my boyfriend. He's into Japanese culture.
Angel *Crosstitch.com*- My boyfriend's grandmother has cancer, so I've decided to do this for her. Hopefully it might raise her spirits a little.

As you can see, my newest obsession is crosstitch.com. I got a two-year subscription for my twenty-second birthday (Thank you Pa!) and now I'm in love.

I will be posting updates as work is completed.

I'm a bad, bad blogger!

Shame on me! I just realized that I hadn't updated this since I created it.





Here's what I've been working on:




Sweet Treats Counted Cross Stitch by Creative Accents. This is a picture of the kit, but not of my work so far. I need to take and upload some.

I've also since the last time I updated finished my Cat Nap latch hook by Natura.

Now that school has started, my progress on anything will definitely be slow, but I'm promising myself at least an hour or two on weekends to work on things.

Wish me luck!
