A Treasured Time

[Misty]

This project is the first one I'm making for myself. I had initially given myself til Christmas to finish it but since joining this forum you guys have lit a fire under my bottom and now I really want to get it finished within about six weeks. My husband and I are moving soon so I'm using that as a 'deadline'. A big part of this kit is half stitches so there's no reason for me not to meet my new goal.

What it will look like:


Where I'm at now:

This is a very pretty one, and you've made quite a great start. I remember seeing someone else do this a couple years back and the backstitching made all the difference. Can't wait to see this progress.

[Fljotsdale]

What a very charming design! It make me think of jigsaw puzzles! I used to do ones very similar to your picture when I was young.

I have this one to do as a tree skirt and after seeing your piece I want to dig mine out, the colours in yours are so pretty,good luck with the stitching and moving house.

I love your work. These are the kind of projects I love to work. Pictures from a simpler time. Can't wait to see the next update.

This forum helped to put a fire under my butt also to get back to working on my projects.

Lovely design! I just snow scenes. You've made some excellent progress on this already. Well done

I remember seeing someone else do this a couple years back and the backstitching made all the difference.

I really hope the backstitching makes all the difference because it is very simplistic right now. I was worried that it would only look good from a distance. I guess I'll hold my worries til I start the backstitching. I'm glad you mentioned that!

Very pretty design.

Are you planning on doing the back stitching as you go or leave it all til you finish?
