and another UFO finished!! :dance:

Image

I dropped it at the framer this morning and told him I beat him!!! LOL....he said I must have gone home and stitched like crazy since I started it in March. It will be framed like the first one, and one of the reasons I did want to get it done was so I would get the same frame as they sometimes discontinue them...and I was lucky and got the same frame.

I also cleaned up some of the pictures in my gallery of half done works that I have since finished so you may see broken links on some of the previous posts.

Now I get to update my signature!

I am not really in the mood for finishing the soul music wolves just yet and the european bistro is the only other thing I have on the go which i do a small bit at the time. I had a look at the wolves last night and it''s 3/4 done so maybe in a month or so but I really want to start my new projects i have planned which are

- Olga gostins federation house
- pollyanna pickering born free
- allium sensation from woxs
and I have kitted up all three as well ready to go

and er, somewhere in all that I''ll do some xmas stitching. I am actually doing one of my 4 decortion kits. I am doing the snowman one this year...I started it last year. I''ll do some cards and a few gifts as well...I need to make a list in the next few weeks. The allium sensation is actually a xmas gift but I will probably do one for myself at some stage.

The Wrens are gorgeous Barb and so colourful.

Very well done and great that the framer had the right frame still in stock.

Good luck with your other 2 yet to be finished ones. I agree its no use stitching on something if you're not in the mood for it and all those greys can be downpulling.

The wrens are lovely Barb and I'm glad you got the same frame.
Can't wait to see them all framed together.

Progress on ""Soul Music"" I kind of felt bad that I neglected it so I put down the allium sensation and held off starting my other stuff and am going to finish it, which leabes European Bistro unfinished..well I only started it a month or so ago and suspect it will take me six months.
