New SAL

No pictures as of yet. I have spent the last 5 days trying to get the pattern put together only to find out that my PC Pro Program disc has a flaw in it. They are sending me out a new one. What a nightmare. I would get the whole thing put together. Boarder, words, backstitch and I would start to move the piece around to make them fit the way I wanted it and poof the whole thing would disappear. I would have it saved and try to go to the saved file nothing it would all be gone. This happened no less then 8 times. You can't even imagine how mad I was. Called the company and talked to a tech and a programmer. They can't figure out what is causing it but they said it had to be a disc flaw so a new one is being sent. In the mean time I have made and printed one section at a time and taped it all together so I am in the process of ....tonight I hope....getting started with the actual stitching. My fingers and toes and everything else are crossed, hoping this will work.

Oh how frustrating! Glad you were able to salvage enough to get started though.
I'm looking froward to seeing your design and watch it come to life Rose.

Hope the new disc works properly Rose. I often resort to printing bits out and sticking them together.

Looking forward to seeing your design

Here is an update. Not as much done as I would have like there were 4 hockey games this week

and Saturday I spent the time trying to get my craft room the way I want it. I am really liking the bigger room but moving every thing, rearranging and throwing out stuff that is not ever going to be used takes a long time.

It will be wonderful when everything is how I want it though.

That is really coming on fast Rose considering you haven't been able to work on it much.
Hope all goes well with the craft room, it sounds exciting!!

It's looking very good Rose

Thank you all. I always find that stitching words goes so much faster, or maybe it just seems that way.

I have had some time to do a bit of stitching. This is the most current progress report. I had to work on Saturday so did not get a chance to finish setting up my craftroom but I did have time to stitch for a bit on Sunday.

Oooohh this picture did not come out very well but the one on the webshot site is better to see the detail.

Oh Rose, that is fabulous! It is really coming on alot isn't it. I love the lettering you've used as well. So clear and easy to read.
