I haven't frequently taken photos of my Home Sweet Home WIP as I think that I'm not making so much progress. Since it's been one month since I last posted my WP, here's my progress so far:

Taken last August 14:

And today:

Happy stitching everyone! :wub: :wub: :wub:

Its beautiful and you're making great progress. Its about enjoyment not speed, so thank-you for sharing. And some of those patterns, uggg, it just seems like you get stuck in a color for ever and it will never get finished. Then suddenly, viola, where did that come from?!? :shock:

Keep up the great work, can't wait to see future updates :)

Hi Lisa,

I'm doing it on 14 count and actually, I find it so big since started using 18 count on one of my newly started project. Maybe the distance from the camera made the crosses look tiny :D

Re: Toni's WIPs - FINISHED

Post by toni99 »

I have been out of the loop lately but I stitch everyday. I try to avoid the internet as much as possible first, because it consumes so much of my stitching time :lol: and also, it always tempted me in buying more and more patterns and kits and stitching aids, tools, etc.

Here's my finished Home Sweet Home project:

Here's another project that I did alongside Home Sweet Home. It's called "One Will Never Do":

Toni your work is amazing. I too have just caught up with this thread and have enjoyed looking at your projects.

The Home Sweet Home is a great finish, as is the one with the birds and the one about friends is so true and you have made a lovely piece of work with it too.

All of it really wonderful stitching.
