Graduation Day

Well it's not actually a Graduation Day, but the project I was working on was called 'Graduation Day'. Note I say "was" because I am done. Whoo Hoo!

Graduation Day

stitched on 28ct Natural linen

with DMC thread

It's not quite as fun to look at as the 'Men of Baltimore' was, but I still enjoyed stitching this vine border. Making all the twists and turn and still getting it to match up in the end was so rewarding, I practically lept out of my chair. My DS actually said he liked it, now that's amazing.

The only other stitching I have done is on the Old Crow, and it really wasn't enough progress to warrant another picture. Maybe by the weekend I can get in some serious stitching time. It is supposed to be cold and dreary with a chance for snow. Perfect stitching weather.

Although Saturday night is the Knit In at Gourmet Yarn and I may hang out there, to finish up a knitting project have that doesn't get touched at home. Who can knit when the stitching projects keep calling out?

I worked out my ordering snafu with the Silver Needle, so that order is on the way. I also emailed in an order to Shakespeare's Peddler and ordered online with Stitching Bits and Bobs. So lots of stash pictures are in the near future. I did end up ordering two of one design, which I will share with anyone that may want it later.

FYI, some of this pending stash will be little gifties for a few stitching friends so I will keep them hidden for a bit.

Happy Stitching.
