It has occurred to me that I have never scanned and posted Mokona finished. So here it is. I got the pattern from Dawn over at Anime Stitching.

New Template.

I know its a little early but I had time to search and find a new background for Christmas.

Contest

I entered a giveaway at Be-Stitched. You should enter it also. You don't have to have a blog to enter. It's for a gift card worth $75! Thanks Erynne your so generous!

Batch 2... Christmas Cards

So here are some more of the Christmas ones i've gotten done. I'm kinda upset it seems that some of the ones I picked out are too big.

Christmas minis

I've also decided to make my own Christmas cards for kicks this year. Yes Emily you can pick which ever one you want. Here is what i've stitched so far. I have some Disney ones to do also.

Mom's birthday present

Well my mom's birthday is Nov 17th so I decided to make her a bookmark.

Finished Car

Dad loved his car I did for his birthday. Here it is finished.

*sighs*

Well i'm back. My boyfriend accidentally broke our brand new computer. It cost another $300 just to fix it. I'm so upset about that. Then to make it worse I lost everything! And I mean everything! Teach me not to backup my stuff again. I can pay another $120 and the computer place can get my stuff for me. But who has the money. Well since i've been gone I finished the car for my Dad and he loved it. (i'll have to scan it later so I have it on here) I've also started and almost finished my mom's birthday present. And i've decided to make my own christmas cards this year and have done 4 different ones already. (i'll also scan them later)

Just Backstitch

Yay! I got all the stitches done now just to do the backstitching. I would of gotten more of the backstitching done yesterday but I hurt my shoulder working out. Just a few more days til Dads birthday.

The Cat & Harbor

Well Eleni & Yapani (John's mom and grandma) got their stitched pieces yesterday in the mail. Eleni was so happy and his grandma just loves her Greek harbor. I'm glad they like them. Well I almost have the car completely finished I need to go pick up some more 817 (red floss) and get the colors today for my next project which is for my mom's birthday.

Break from Car

I had enough with red, so I took a break from the car and stitched this small autumn pattern. It turned out pretty good on black.

Another Car update!

It's moving along very nicely. I am getting very sick of red though. But i'm pretty much done with all the red. I did take a break and stitched more on Mokona. Believe that's pretty much done. I do need to sit and try to figure out how to switch the '58 in this pattern to a '59.

Car

Haven't been in much of a mood to stitch the car. Starting to get sick of the reds. But Here is what i've managed to get done.

Update on Car

Well i've managed to work a bit more on the corvette. It's moving along nicely. I am a little upset though. The pattern calls for glissengloss thread. I got DMC thread that looks the same. It is so hard to work with! It's all scratchy and loves to tangle up. But it does look nice. The picture didn't turn out all that great so you can't see the silver of the floss i've used so far. Only 20 more days to get it finished!

Dad's Birthday

A few days ago I started a project to give to my Dad for his birthday. He restored a 59 Corvette not too long ago that he has been meaning to restore since before I was born. It's a gorgeous car. So I searched high and low for a pattern of the car. And I found a 58 one. So I asked him the differences between the two years. There are a couple one on the front hood of the car and one on the back. Well my pattern doesn't show the one on the back but there are two differences I have to change on the front of the car. This pattern requires Tweeding. It looks so weird to me while i'm stitching it. Hope it looks good when it's done.
