Wanted: Stitching Mojo

Hello out there! How is everyone doing? Well I hope. My apologies for the lack of posting and in particular, no pictures this time around. I simply have not been stitching. I seem to be in a stitching funk, where nothing is appealing to me. And by nothing, I mean NO. THING. Not even, gasp!, a new start. I mean, since when do I not want to start anything new? I simply MUST be ill!


I did, however, purchase Jardins de France by Danybrod. I am hoping this snaps me out of whatever funk I'm in. I know I'm supposed to be working on WIPs and UFOs, however, desperate times, call for desperate measures. Thursday, we leave for San Francisco to go see the Buffalo Sabres at San Jose Sharks. My MIL got us tickets for our Christmas present. She also got me a Ryan Miller Premier Road Jersey and The Hubmeister a Ryan Miller Premier Home Jersey so we will be suitably attired come game time. It's not my beloved Devils, but I will take whatever hockey game I can. Should be TONS of fun! :)


Well, I best be off. Tons of stuff to do before work. Hope everyone is having a wonderful week! :)

Quick finish

Managed to get some stitching time in last night while watching The Voice. DH and I totally love this show and this season looks like it's going to be really good.


At any rate, here is what I managed to get finished:


Design: Christmas Stocking

Designer: Atelier Soed Idee


Fabric: 32 count Country French Linen in Cafe Mocha

Fibers: Crescent Colours Cotton Floss in Antique Lace and Spinach. DMC cotton floss in 842 and 3031. Anchor floss in 303.


Accouterments: Mill Hill Antique Beads in Stock#: G03021 Royal Pearl.

And here is a picture of the rose I have sitting on my desk:

It reminds me of the colors of a sunrise. It was purchased at Ka-Bloom of Reno . I have been very pleased with how long their flowers last. I just love fresh flowers! :)


Well, I best be off. Hope everyone is having a wonderful day today! :)
