Some More xxx

Hello :)

We are having quite cold days here, so we stay at home near fireplace watching tv. And, ofcourse, stitching ;)

What do you think about it? The colours are more vibrant and not so dark as in the photo...

Hope you had a great Christmas and wish you  all the best for the next year.

Train of Dreams

Finaly my pc is working!!! Curious to see how much I've done? Sorry, no pics today. Ok ok, I'm joking ;)

I love every x I've done on it. I love colours, I love the design... 

EVERYTHING!!!

As you may notice, the fabric has some marks on it (bottom of right corner and some small in the center). Guess, what's that? I had to put glue. Why? My little boy saw how I cut threads and decided to "help" me. But he was cutting the fabric. Lucky me, I saved it on time.  NEVER leave your work on sofa, table if you have children, trust me!!!

Have a great week :)

Just 3 weeks and christmas is here. Getting ready?
Yesterday I've been out to get some presents for my bf. Found all he wanted :)
But today... I'm in bed. Probably it's flue. I can't stitch as my eyes gets tired in 3minutes...
My computer got virus or something too ahahah so can't post pics untill my bf fixes it.
Was stitching train of dreams-can't put it away. I think one page is done, maybe a bit more :) can't wait to show it for you.
Oh, my little girl is kicking me. We decided to call her Sofia.
My son can't pronounce it, calls her Fifi. Every morning and evening when we stay in bed, he pulls up my shirt, puts his head on my belly and calls her "Fifi, Fifi, boom boom!!!". ( he asks her to move and kick). Sooo sweet!...

Hope you're fine and having a nice day.

Hugs

I like so much to stitch train of dreams. Love the colours- it'm much more fun than confetti and 20 colours of same shade in 1 page. So i'm thinking- how will i stitch aquarius???!!! Somehow eheheh :)
As soon as i will finish 1st page will post a pic

Have a nice day ;)

*Hugs*

Update and New Wip

Before this month ends up wanted to post progress of Aquarius as I'm putting it away for some time.

As you can see, there isn't much done on it, I came back on tuesday from Lithuania (been there for 10 days) and had "no stitching" days. But I visited some shops and bought some fabric (evenweave 25, 28 and 32ct), scissors, petit needles, mill hill gladss seed beads, some threads and other goodies... But the best thing I've got is... Just look at the pic

With all threads and fabric!!! My head is still dizzy ahahaha :) 

Welcome my new WIP "Train of Dreams" by Randal Spangler :) I'll hang it in the room of my son ;)

Here is progress after.. eh let me think... 3 days. Started 27 october. Stitching it on 28 ct evenweave (tryed it and love the coverage, better then 25ct!).

Have a great weekend!

*Hugs*

Proud of Myself

Can you believe it? I managed to finish 3rd page this month!!! I looove it sooo much!!!

I wanted to share this photo of my son with you, took it this morning :) I adore his smile ...

Last week I had a check up and doctor told me that the little one in my tummy is a girl!!!!!! 

Time ago when someone was asking me when I will finish to stitch "aquarius", I told that I should have a dougter which is aquarius, teach her cross stitching so she could finish it ehehe... Due date is 12.02.2012 so she's aquarius for sure. That's incredible!!! But I hope to finish it by myself and give it as a present for her :)

Hugs

Happy stitching!!!

Two Pages Finished

Finaly i've finished page 1 and 2!!! No more confetti yuppee :)
I wanted to post as soon as i finished 1st and 2nd page, but i hadn't few colours to finish all, so moved to 3rd page, quarter is already done. Oh, and i will not move to another page untill this one is completely done

Thanks for visiting my blog

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY

Have a great day!

New start. Another one :)

Why I started to stitch aquarius with full crosses??? Why nobody told me how fast I could finish it doing tent stitch?!! Ok, I didn't ask... I just started another HAED "Snow Angel" by Zindy S. D. Nielsen. It's so sexy! I've done about 200xxx so no pics this time ;) And I'm back to Aquarius right now. Washed the fabric, cause it was almost grey, so dirty...

I love shopping :)

Two days ago was my birthday, so today I went to do some presents for myself :) I bought these lovely fabrics for little cushions, "Dress it up" buttons, dmc threads, aida 18ct and some needles. There's another craft shop that I should visit soon :)

Yesterday evening I've done this cushion. I just loooove it!..

For writing used pop-up liner

These tulips received from my bf and I share them with you ;)

Hope you're having a wonderful day!
