German Ostee update 2




I finally finished putting in the last bead last night on my Chatelaine piece....It took forever. This is part 1 - 3, bring on June 1st for part 4. There is no way I could leave beading to the very end!! I just wish everyone could see this IRL, the Swarovski's just sparkle....I am truly loving this one. I have also been stitching on an exchange, but can't show that one - it's a secret.




On another note, an update with my job. Things are a little better this term (I work at a school and get holidays off)....They haven't gone back the way they were, but I am coping alot better now.

Lynn's RR going home

I can't believe our Neighbourhood RR is over. I finished stitching on Lynn's last night and it was posted to Queensland today! It has been 1 yr and 11months since Lynn stitched on hers and has been all over the world. Well done, Lynn!

Hi everyone, Jane's RR is ready to go to Lynn in Queensland. I also have Lynn's RR sitting on my craft room table and will get onto that asap. That is the last one. After two years, I'm nearly finished stitching on RR's.

Floral Fifteen

I have been having a really busy time lately with the kids on school holidays.....But have been making sure I get some stitching in. I received Just Nan's Floral Fifteen in the mail yesterday and couldn't help starting it....I am missing one colour out of the kit which is on it's way to me. So, I will fill that in when I get it, probably next week.

There has been nothing on tele of an evening lately (due to holidays), so DH and I have kicked the kids out of the room to watch "Deadwood". I am so addicted to this series. I gave it to DH for Christmas and we finally are getting to watch it now. We were in Deadwood last October, so this is very interesting for us to watch.

Here is an update on Online 28. I only have the beads to do on part one

German Ostee




Here is a new wip....It is the German Ostee by Chatelaine (c), her online 28. I just love the colours in this one. I have quite a few of hers, but have never kept up with it each month. I hope this time it will be different. When I've finished part one, I'll add the beads. Some people like to do all the beading at the end, but I find that way too much beading at once. So, I'll do mine as I go

Yesterday, after work, I decided to come home and put together my Merry Cox piece. It was really simple and quick to put together....I just love the little scrimshaw ruler
