Worked on my birth announcement this week and I'm basically half way done now. I think it looks adorable, but am half regretting using the Aida that came with the kit, 'cus it's so stiff it's slowing my work a little.

Gorgeous and I'm sure that as you carry on working on it the fabric will become softer.

Finished Lifestyles today, complete with charms, just need to get it framed now.
For the little hanging threads I picked colors from leftover threads from kits I've done before.

Started: March 23rd, 2013
Finished: August 4th, 2013
(weekend work only)

I'm supposed to work on the birth announcement again this week, but to even finish this today was a chore, as my back has given up on me. I dunno if it's postural or if I pulled something but I can barely move today, it's midback by my shoulder blade.

Tylenol and icing is all I can do for now, although I ordered a postural brace to see if I see some improvement (since my belly started growing I don't stitch on the floor with my back against the sofa anymore, I stitch sitting on the sofa, but it's too deep for me to keep my back rested so I end up being too hunched, so I fear that's what's happening).

Fabulous finish Laura and I love the threads you have added at the bottom. A great idea.

Sorry about your back and my guess would be posture as mine gets painful in the same area after I have been bent over my stitching for a few hours. I will be interested to know how the brace works should you decide to go ahead with that idea.

So cute Laura!

Where did you get this wonderful pattern? I have a wall in my sewing room of stitching related projects and would love to do this to add to the collection.
Cheers

It's from a 1995 Cross Country Stitching Magazine. It's called Lifestyles - Stitcher.

Oh this is such an adorable project! Congrats on finishing it and with a sore back even. I sure hope you get some relief soon. I'm no stranger to back pain and when it decides to spasm, it's no fun
