Not For Us Alone


I have finally finished Chapter 3 on this piece.....It was by far the hardest to stitch. I had to use a book of hers called "Autopsy of Montenegrin Stitch". Everyone was telling me that there was no way I could finish it without it. I had bought it about 4 years ago and had never used it. And that's when all hell broke loose! I searched for it everywhere. Pulled everything out of my cupboards and drawers. I couldn't find it anywhere. I searched for about a week and nearly ordered another one. After lots of &%$#*&^, I finally found it hiding at the back of my bookshelf in my craftroom behind a lot of magazines. Anyway, it helped knowing that I wasn't the only one who had trouble with this chapter....As you can see in the photos, I have now started Chapter 4, which I am really enjoying. I love the little red house.

Georgie, that's what happened to me too! I couldn't find my autopsy of the Montenegrin book for ages! Then I finally found it. Now I have to get back to Not For Us Alone and get over that Chapter 3 hump! Assuming I can find the piece! lol! Yours is beautiful -- congratulations on learning that stitch!

Good job Georgie...love Amy Mitten's pieces. I have one from one of the Bush Retreats that I need to do...Mary Queen of Scots. I love the peice but I love so many other designers as well... just not enough time. Keep stitching away and I'll keep following your updates!! Hugs and happy stitching...
