Re: Perftangel's SAL - Updated 19 Dec (pg 6)

Lots of pictures ahead!! :)

First I finished two more ornaments, just in time to!

For my cousin:
Image
I think she liked it, she did ask how long it took and I told her way longer than I'd like to admit! I also got her personalized luggage tags from Etsy and she liked those way more... I think she would like something cross stitched for her wedding if it had their names and everything on it... Still debating!
For my dad:
Image
He joked that it was a used ornament because I put it on my tree to take this picture... :roll:

I also went and picked up one of the Norden prizes I won (sorry it's blurry):
Image
The other patrons in the shop (I'd never been) bothered me (I have issues with people I suppose) so I wanted to leave right away so I didn't buy anything and now I feel bad... BUT they are having a Lizzie Kate trunk show January 4 - 14th so I'll try to stop again then and buy something.

I've also worked on my Chat a bit more:
Image
and less "artsy":

Thanks for looking!!

My last start of 2013 turned into the first finish of 2014! I was having a shitty day so I thought I would make and finish this adorable strawberry cupcake. :)

My cousin is getting married in May and I wanted to make her something so I settled on a fancy letter H and her new last name below. If there is room I was thinking about adding "established 2014" or something.

I already had the fabric (28ct Quaker Linen) and the floss (which is DMC 3808, more teal in person than is showing here, I have two skeins of it so I figured I wouldn't run out). :)

I framed the baby globe and gave it to our friends on Saturday, sorry for the blurry photo, it was dark!

Image

They liked it! And apparently the mom use to do cross stitch when she was younger (which I did not know) so I'm pretty sure she will appreciate it a bit more!

I have been working on my monogrammed H:

Image

and a gift for my husband, but no pictures at the moment!

I'm making a little something for my husband for Valentine's day. It's so hard to keep it a secret so he knows I'm making him something and I've shown it to him, but he claims he doesn't know what it's going to be, I think it's pretty clear, thoughts?

Also, it's super tiny, I'm using 20 count that my grandmother gave me from a yarn sale. I miss my even weave SO MUCH.
