Halloween ABC

A while back I had posted the start of this cross stitch (just realized it was back in Jan!) -- anyway, I put this on my FAL list for the 2nd quarter to hopefully get myself moving.. Slowly but surely

I'm done with letters K-Z
(with the exception of the pumpkin in the center)




i'm seriously loving this cross stitch, it's coming together easy enough
no backstitching, perfect for a beginner
the hand dyed floss in the kit was the way to go, they give the piece dimension


My FAL is to finish letters C-Z
only 7 more to go :)

W.i.P. Wednesday

Sorry if this list seems redundant, I feel as though i'm showing the same things over and over! No finishes yet, but soon!

Works in Progress-
1. Retro Flowers QAL - got my white in the mail, needs borders
not the final layout!

2. Halloween ABC - letters K-Z complete
Just a sneak peek :)

3. May blocks do.good stitches
4. May bee blocks
5. Patchwork Chevron quilt - top done, needs backing and quilting.
6. Granny Squares quilt - 17 of 20 blocks quilted


7. Chasing Chevrons - no progress. needs quilting.

House to myself this weekend = lots of quilting.. hopefully.
Many W.I.P.'s that need to get completed, the pile is starting to overwhelm me!

I'm linking up

Fresh Sewing Day - April

Technically it was Fresh Sewing Day yesterday, but i'm recapping today



When I started thinking about the sewing I had done this month, I didn't think I'd have much to show.. as I went through my pictures I was able to come up with this..


2 quilts and my bee block.. okay.
But then I realized I spent most of the month on these..

yep. nevermind, feeling pretty accomplished this month
mosreso because they are actually all sewn together - I got more white in the mail yesterday so borders will be on this week :)

Make sure you head over and see what everyone else was up to this month!
