Crafty Jennster's Projects

Post by CraftyJennster »

Hey everyone! I know this isn't necessarily a stitch a long, but I have looked up information about there being a stitch a long that has people share their current works in progress. I'm still new at this, so I hope this is the right place to post... I have been working on this since June with a few breaks (pun intended) in between. I really like seeing other people's WIPs, so I decided to join.

Reason for the pun is because in August, I had my second surgery on my Achilles tendon and also to remove a broken piece of bone from the outer ankle. Lots of physical therapy! But now, I'm back and going hard on this. This is a project for my boyfriend. The pattern will look like this when completed.

This is my current work

I will be posting an update on this at the end of the week then begin on my second project in my rotation. The next one coming up is a Dimensions kit called Graceful Tulip I've been trying to avoid, but it has to be done!

That is really going to be quite something when complete. Looks impressive enough as it is. If BF doesn't love it, break his ankle so he knows what you went through.

Regards,

Richard.

Thanks everyone! The confetti is the worst part since it takes away my excitement to work on it. I am sure you all know how annoying confetti might be! You just want to stitch and not stop, but half of your time is spent on stitching a single x of a color then moving on to another color needing only 3 stitches.

You are all so great! :wub:

It's so great seeing someone here that watches my videos! I will be posting an update video along with a mini haul talking about how I store my threads and fabrics. :) Stay tuned! I haven't done much progress since my Shakespeare class has taken most of my time, but I've been working on the teeny tiny confetti bits. :)

Thanks everyone for such kind words!

I went deeper into my project showing it and my other current WIPs in my newest video. Check it out if you want to see what I've been up to on FlossTube! :whoop: I apologize for using ads, but I am a full time student without a job, so this will be the only way I can try to help my family until I am able to get a job. :cry:
