All of your pieces are wonderful. I especially like the birds and keep thinking I must stitch up some birds one day.

All of your projects are just beautiful. Of course I am so jealous also because I don't have any pretty specialty threads so I must go sulk now. I see all the lovely threads that people have and are using and I just think well maybe someday lol For now I will just enjoy looking at all the lovelies t...

Well after living a life of craziness for the past few months my stitchy bug has finally returned and life can get back to some type of normal. I managed to stitch this little guy just to keep my mind from going completely over the edge. http://i823.photobucket.com/albums/zz158/Icequeen123_photos/th...

Gosh these are just going to be so amazing. I really wanted to get in on this but had no funds for it so I'm excited to see them stitched up. Of course everyone knows where they can send the patterns to when they no longer want them LOL Keep up the wonderful progress.

Update on Santa

Oh now that makes a lot of sense with that diagram Allyn. Thanks for posting that. I will definitely have to practice a bit because I'm all in a tizzy now about doing this properly lol.

Here's my weekly progress as well. Hubby works nights so my days and nights are mixed up lol

ohhhh yes that helped a lot, thank you so much

Thank you so much everyone for explaining. I had the stitching over two concept down but the counting part I just couldn't get straight in my head. Now I understand it better. I will definitely have to get some pretty fabric now for my miras to do them justice.

Okay I'm going to attempt to make this question clear but who knows with me eh? So I have never stitched over two and I see some beautiful patterns stitched over two such as the miras and lavender and lace etc. etc. How on earth does the counting work. I mean let's say I'm stitching and the next sti...

swip= slow work in progress

Awww sorry but the signup for this is already closed so you will have to wait for the next one. However there are many other sals there for different artists like JBG, Nene Thomas, Spangler etc. plus the weekly sals. One week is minis, one is ufo/swips, themed sal, retired, and the new start sal. So...

Dealing with a house full of sickies as well. This is sure taking its toll on all of us.

So I"m sure some of us have signed up for the HAED freebie sal this year. I chose Christmas Presence and will be posting my progress here. Everyone that chose this as well can post on this thread if they would like to. I think it's a good way to motivate each other. I will try to post weekly an...

This one is so pretty and it's going to be great watching your progress.

Finally finished the top row, first three pages. Now onto page four yay.

Well my stitchy bug flew the coop so I haven't been stitching much but here is a small update.

Oh how fabulous to read these lol. There are a lot of witty people out there. Thanks for posting these.

I have to agree that this is the best group of people that I have ever met online. When I was at my lowest, they were here to help me through the dark days and lift my spirits. I can definitely relate to not having any money for even floss at this point let alone lovely patterns that I really want b...

Well darn, would love to get in on this but I don't have any of the patterns, special floss, beads, or fabric lol. I guess I will have to sit this one out and just drool over all the lovelies. I hope someone does the grasshopper pie one. I really love that one and the rainbow parfait one. *sigh* Som...
