Finito

Yay, not sure if I'm going to bother framing it.

Nearly

Slightly interrupted by kids needing help and dog needing out and running out of backstitch brown. Found a relatively good match in my left overs.

Oops

Forgot to take picture, it's getting to be a bad habit.

Not playing computer games

Finished

Madly stitching under nose of the giftee

Running out of time

I wanted to give this to someone tomorrow...

Am

No piccie

At home

Homeward bound

Finished the brown. Photo for the win.

On the road again

No picture for you!

Tis evening

Watching the box. Forgot picture.

Busing home

Again no photo

On the bus

By its nature a bit hard to take a progress shot

Coz i wanna

But then i had to stop because other ppl wanna

New thing

This will be my first multipage pattern so i spent the time gridding it up.
Proceeded to forget to photo it and post it so this is back dated.

Remembering day

We're not very good at it.

Piano

It's been a while, with messed up schedules. I almost got a job today but their circumstances changed (extremely sad face).

I also need to sew up the edges and transfer it to a scroll coz the edges are getting tatty and I'm running out of space in the hoop. I don't want to squash and deform the stitches.

Piano, the next

They got c+ on their exams, grats!

He's starting to look like something.

Waiting at the playground

Because that's all I'm good for.

Waiting for something else

Killing time

The car is getting serviced so I'm waiting. Going to go see the house with a clock in its walls.

Started a new project coz it can fit in my regular bag.

PIANO

And a public holiday. And the dog demands pats.

While the mouse plays

Hubby was playing a game on the telly so i kept him company

Betcha can't tell what I did :P

Piano

Did i post last week? I didn't take a photo.
Nevermind, here's today:

Place holder

I forgot to post this week, but because I did it and I'm trying to record how often I'm stitching I have to insert this date into my database :P

Piano!

I am doing a lot of not caring with this one

That pointy bit is a leg

oops, piano

I forgot to post and I didn't even take a photo because I was grumpy.
Started the 20c Squirrel Nutkin that Mum found at a jumble sale ages ago.
Didn't really want to start something, but wanted something to do.
So there you go.

Finished!

Well, it needs mounting and framing but it's done. Hooray!

Back

Front

Piano, piano...

French knots are all that's left.... Had a go but they were misaligned so i had to undo them :(

Uncle

Pretty whatever movie
Got more backstitching done, up to the last colour.

Piano

Blah blah blah... All the things said last week.

The top ones wings are done, whoot.

Me time

Not waiting for anyone, not "watching" tv... It was nice. All the brown back stitching is done.

On a run

"watching" an interview show while i stitch...

Leisure time

Finished those last two colours and have started the back stitching, french knots will be last. There is a LOT of backstitching .

Piano

So close, two little bits of colour, french knots and all the backstitching left to do.

Mama visiting

How to stop

her making me clean my house :)

Bloody long piano lessons

That is all.

Finito

Zomg, apparently the kids are too tired to pay attention to their piano lesson.

Whoops, forgot to rotate. 

Piano lessons

Omg. My kids need to shut up and listen.

Oot n aboot

Little project

Had a friend over

For a crafting evening, she made bonbons while I did a couple of colours.

Taking the morning off

I don't wanna clean the toilet

Motivated

Briefly...

While everyone else computers

I needed a break :P

Watchin' telly and not eating

Wilty

Funny show

Is it a pattern yet?

Did a bit more whilst people were doing other things and I was avoiding the computer... that I am now on...

I also watched Pride and Prejudice while I was at it.

Sometimes I get motivated

Everybody else was painting stuff so I decided to paint with thread...

Finished a leaf, did a bit more border, and a bit of the top dragonfly's right wing.

Exams are over

So I finally felt like I had time to stitch

Isn't that just the way

So I finally managed to get myself sorted out and do some cross-stitch on the last official day of holidays.
Did a bit before my friend collected me and then more when I got home after lunch.
Next week I'm back to uni.

Creative time

The kids weren't allowed screens so I decided to be supportive and also stay off the computer. A couple of hours represented here.

Tomorrow is D-day

I go back to Uni. You may not hear from me again for some time.

Monitoring

Did a bit more stitching while watching the eldest make compensation for his minecraft crime.

Whilst Watching the Box

Good old gorey Grimm and stitching, way better than folding washing although much less necessary.

It was on the list...

of things to do during my holidays.

I also made a cutlery drawer, go me.

Big Hero Six

this movie has good points and massive plot holes.

Forever

it has been since i last stitched. Uni is a time sink...
