Well here are my main three that I am working on finishing right now The first is my favorite, English Garden Sampler:

And of course my hubby's favorite, Jesus at 33:

And last but not least, Cherries:


I have serious issues with finishing anything! It seems like I get to the end and lose interest! Seriously my Jesus at 33 hasnt been touched in a long time...

What fabulous projects! Hope to see updates on them soon.

Your projects are lovely. Why not set yourself the task of only working on your favourite one if you have done at least a little bit of work on Jesus first.

What a lovely variety of projects!

Unfortunately, I seem to have issues with tinypic, so I can't see your projects, but I'll keep trying!

all really pretty! I like a lot the first one

Hopefully we can all motivate you to finish them.

They're very nice projects too.

I just love English Garden Sampler is that the one I have just seen on the European cross stitch site (goes to check)

I can see the first two now!
The english garden sampler is fabulous! You must finish it, you really must!

I can see the first and third picture and they are great I hope that you will finish them. It would be amazing to see it all worked !!!!!!

Lovely work

It looks like you're so close to finishing the first 2!! Go Maddy Go!

Nice projects,hope you don't give up on the Jesus one.You look close to finishing it.

Definitely finish them, they are all great in their own ways. You should set yourself a time limit to get one done then go to work on the next one and get it done too. You will soon get all of them finished I am sure if you work at it.

Thanks for all the compliments everyone! I am wondering what ya'll think about the section on the English Garden Sampler, instead of putting the alphabet replacing it with a bible verse or poem or something like that? The alphabet is very pretty but this certain piece means alot to me. So I was thinking maybe putting something meaningful there? I would be a little scared of messing it up though I am working on the Jesus at 33 peice right now. All I have to do on that one is finish the background and some minor backstitching. That buys me some time to figure things out!

They're all lovely Maddy. I think putting a bible verse on the english garden one would be a really nice personal touch. You could use some graph paper to plot out the wording so it fits nicely into the available space.
Keep working on them - you'll be so pleased when they're done.

Cheers, Felicity

I think its a great idea to change the chart to mean something more to you, you should go for it

Lovely pieces look forward to seeing more of them

I agree, changing the alphabet to something else you like will make it more personal to you.
