Well I have been busy lil stitching bee. Not only have I finished a few rows on Sapphire but I've also JUST finished a project. I finished stitching the Stacked Cups project, even the backstitching is done. Here are all the pic updates of Sapphire and the pics of Stacked Cups.

Hard to believe it's been a month since I updated. I was feeling poorly for a bit there but feeling much better. My insurance is still messed up so never did figure out what was going on. I have in the mean time lost my job because of not feeling well. Unfortunately because I wasn't there a year I ...

Sorry it's taken me so long for an update this time! I did really good on Row 3 till Tuesday (10/23/12) but then my health took a turn for the worse. I had 4 spells where I almost fainted on 10/23 into 10/24. I got right into the doctors office and have just been drained of my energy! The doc office ...

Thanks everyone for the great encouragement! I have just finished Row 2 on Page 1 and took update pictures. I had yesterday and today off work so have gotten a bunch of stitching time in. I work the next 5 days so might be longer between updates till my next day off probably! Here they are!

I am sooo grateful that she did this for me. What makes it even more special is the fact that I have no ...

I don't think it is made of all 1/2 stitches...i think just the sky areas are...looks like the trees too. I would have to find that kit and i just moved so it's in a box at the moment. Sorry I can't be of more help right now to answer your question.

I don't have an update right now picture wise ...

Thanks, thought the struggle was worth pictures earned when I finally did it right! I'm also working on putting my thread onto bobbins. I'm doing 10 right now, have 5 done. I was known as the girl who would spend an hour looking for thread in all of her plastic grocery sacks...haha...I'm finally ...

After the THIRD try I finally got it to match up and I can move onto the next 100 stitches. What a pain in my side. All for some diagonal 1/4 stitches, in white. I have never done 1/4 stitches like that on 2 over 2 so was a challenge for me. Here's the update pics...

I am having an awful time with the frog on this next part. I do fine till I get to the diagonal 1/4 stitches on the roof line of the dormer window. I've stitched it 3x now. Its confusing me...LOL...I usually start in the left corner of a 10x10 square and do the first color in that square, then the ...

It seems to be going so much faster than 1 over 1 which I usually do. This is my first try at 2 over 2. Thinking I'll do every project as 2 over 2 from now on if it goes this fast...LOL

Got Row 2 done just a few mins ago. Here's the update pictures!

Haven't been stitching as much, my stitchy-bug isn't biting very hard. But you can tell a huge difference in what I have stitched. Will pick this project up after I'm done uploading photos...
