Just Nan’s Heart of Gold

I found my Just Nan Heart of Gold sampler.  It just needed the back stitching, beads and charm added.  I’m so pleased I have finished it and that I have now finished three WIPs and on the way to finishing another one.  Not sure how long I can hold out before I start another one but I really want to finish Mirabilia’s Snow Queen and the Janlynn Santa’s Wish List.  One of my son’s want the Santa’s Wish List, I started that one about 30 years ago I think so it’s about time that one was finished.

Here is Just Nan’s Heart of Gold.

It was one of the class projects.  I have more I must stitch some more of them soon.

Mirabilia’s Snow Queen is coming on well.

I’ve done a lot on the Snow Queen, I’m really pleased with her.  Not sure I’ll be able to spend so much time on her over the next few weeks but I do want to make sure I finish her soon.

I’ve been spending time on the beach with my granddaughter Hailey, these photo’s remind me of the All Our Yesterday’s cross stitch charts.  I must get some to stitch for her.

Happy stitching

I'm back

I cannot believe its been almost three years since I last posted on here.  So much has happened.  DS2 will start his third year at university in September, DS3 will join him for his first year and best of all DS1 and his wife had a beautiful baby girl and she is now 17 months old

Hailey loves bubbles

Last week I was looking over the blog and saw that in my last post I had almost finished Six Fat Men by Lizzie Kate.  Well it was still in the cupboard, unfinished so I dug it out and finally finished it.

Here it is complete with snowflake buttons

Must have this made into a hanging ready for this Christmas.

I also stitched a couple of ornaments over the weekend

Old Colonial by Little House Needleworks

and

Christmas Cookies by Country Cottage Needleworks

I have a pile of stitched pieces that need making into ornaments,  I really must make them before Christmas.

I have been crafting while I've been away.  I will show you some of the things I have been doing in future posts.  I have made bags, cards and done a ton of scrapbooking.  I have a Cricut Air machine and I love it.

Happy crating

Sue
