2010 Fright Night Finish

My latest finish is not the project that I recently started. I haven't been feeling all that hot due to the wildfires and as consequence, could not concentrate on such a dark fabric. I chose instead to stitch something else on a light colored fabric. The project should have taken no more than a week, however, I managed to stretch it out to three weeks until completion. These things happen I suppose. At least I have another finish for the year, which brings the total to 26 finishes for the year. Not exactly huge numbers, but then again, there has been a lot going on this past year. :)

At any rate, on with the show!

Waiting On The Post

Whilst waiting on the post that contains Teh Hubmeister's fabric for his map, I've gotten yet another project out of the Bin O'Shame. I am now happy to report that it is getting quite difficult to find projects that need to be finished up. I have quite a few still that need stitching, but they will not be fast and furious stitches and will take quite some time to finish. I have an outline of what I would like my goals to be next year, however, I am unsure if I will be able to accomplish them all. This weekend, I am hoping to conduct another inventory of what is now left over and attempt to plot out the rest of the years' goals. I would dearly love to hit 30 projects out of the Bin O'Shame this year. I am toying with the idea of interspersing fresh starts with more Bin O'Shame projects. I have a binder full of rare/OOP/HTF charts that I would dearly love to get to stitch. 

Well, enough of my blathering. On with the show!

Newest WIP

inally got around to pulling the threads and fabric for my newest WIP. I've been busy trying to keep up with chores and do some projects that were on the back burner, but put off because of jobs/laziness/doing other things. I managed to get some of my freebies stored on my computer organized. I still have a ways to go. This should not be surprising as I have five and a half GIGS worth of freebies stored on my computer. Yes, It's all backed up, but I really needed to re-organize it and get it to where I can actually find things. (Imagine the concept! :D). I think I am about halfway done, but it's better than nothing.

Anyhoo.... here is my latest WIP. Not much done, but I've been stitching when I can. Halloween 2008 ornament by Spongebob (Lorraine Niesto) for SanMan Originals message board members only for the 2008 Spooky Tuesday night. (NOT FOR RESALE OR SHARING!!!). Needle Necessities 1441 Witch's Brew, Crescent Colours Lavender Louise. 28 count natural pearl linen. Frame by Q-Snap. Size 26 John James Platinum needle. Began 09.17.08 2:05 PM PST.

I have some errands to run today, but hopefully I can get more stitching done today. Hope everyone has a good weekend!
