My First Snowman!
A lot of fun to make. My sister-in-law taught me how to make it. Can't wait to make more! I gave this one to my mother-in-law.

Stitchin' by the Sea!
I have been in a cross stitching mood lately. I have finished another mermaid piece. This piece is called "Stitchin' by the Sea" by Brooke Nolan. It was the May 2010 Secret Needle Night piece.

I finished a mermaid!!
This was a mermaid kit from www.dmcrossstitch.com. The name of the pattern is MT748. I added in the backstitching and left off the bubbles. I used my own DMC and that was perhaps why I felt like I had to backstitch. There just was not enough definition. I also had to stitch over part of the face with a slight darker thread. I still think it is a cute piece.

Cross Stitches and New Scrapbook
I have actually gotten to work on my scrapbook and cross stitch. It has really helped doing something creative. I have been working on ABC Lessons by Lizzie Kate and Mermaids of the Deep Blue by Mirabilia. It seems to be working out for me having one easy piece and one hard piece to work on. Anywho, take a look at my new scrapbook - Christmas2010Scrapbook.

A New Year
Welcome 2011. 2010 seemed to fly by. Evan will be 2 in March and Blake will be 6. Hope to get more crafts done. There wasn't much cross stitching in 2010. I really miss that get away time. Maybe I can get more in this year. I need to go through all my WIPs and my "I wanna starts". Lately, I have been working on Lizzie Kate's ABC Lessons. Easy breezy stitching, just a lot of it. Easy to stitch in the car (which seems to be where most of my stitching is being done). I am hoping I can regain some of my sanity with more stitching. All hail more stitching in 2011!
