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

Updates and Battle Abbey

Not a lot of stitching done last month. My youngest two broke up for the summer from University so we have spent time together.  The last day out was to Battle Abbey. 

First some updates.

I finished the Welcome Banner from Country Cottage Needleworks Welcome to the Forest series 

I also stitched an ornament from Country Cottage Needleworks called Holly Jolly. 

A little bit more on my Mirabilia's Snow Queen.

And lastly 

Another part of Little House Needleworks Farmhouse Christmas. 

We have had some lovely days out and the last one to Battle Abbey was great.  We probably spent more time in the car going to and from There but it was lovely just having the time to actually talk together.   No TV, computers or Xbox and they hardly looked at their phones.

A finish, an update and more StitchMaynia starts.

I started one of Country Cottage Needleworks ornaments.  Called By the Chimney, and I finished it.  Well pleased that I actually finished it with all these new projects I keep starting.

I stitched a bit more on my Bewitching Pixie Ana,

Although I did have to frog a lot last night unfortunately.

I also stitched on the Welcome to the Forest by Country Cottage Needleworks

I'm going to finish this part tonight, well hopefully I will.

And another new start.  Winter Queen from Mirabilia.

It doesn't look much yet but I know I'm going to love stitching this one.

We'll that's it for now.  I'll try and not start anymore new ones but I won't promise.

Happy stitching
