Footprints Update

Here's a new picture for the footprints pattern. I would've gotten more done, but I was making last minute projects for the mom and sis-in-law, since we went to visit them last weekend. My sister-in-law is SUPPOSED to e-mail me a picture of the gift I cross-stitched for her, so when I get it I'll post it.

Something I Found

I was looking through all of my patterns to find something I might be able to make my mother-in-law for Mother's Day (yeah I know, last minute) and I found something I had made her a few years ago that I forgot to give her. WOW. I'm a lucky one. LOL. It's not much, just crewel, but the picture is cute, and she loves Native American pictures.

Footprints Update



Well, here is an update. I haven't done much since the last time, but I've been spending a lot of time on my other hobbies. I FINALLY got the bathroom pattern framed for my mom, and my sister and I are sending it to her for Mother's Day. I've never custom framed something, and it really looks quite beautiful with the matting. I'm going to have to figure out how to do it myself, though. Custom framing is so expensive and I'm soooo cheap. Our mom is worth it, though, don't get me wrong. :)


Sorry, Cristy, I think I did something wrong on the seashell. I don't know if it's just the angle of the fabric, or what. I think flaws make it our own though *wink*. My own subtle way of saying I don't wanna fix it! :P

I'm a slacker

Well, there's not much of an update, yet. I've been goofing off a lot more on World of Warcraft again. I will post another picture as soon as I have something of more substance. I have all the cross-stitching of the letters in the section I'm on, but my sister will be doing the backstitching. That means it just looks like little splotches. LOL. I'm working on a seashell right now, and then I figure I'll give a progress picture and start on the top right section. I've been doing a lot of reading, too. I'm stuck on Jonathan Kellerman books. The Alex Delaware series rocks. Very addictive. I've been staying up until 3am every night reading them. I have GOT to stop myself from doing that. There's just too much I want to do in a day!
