Going Strong on my Cross Country Stitching!

Hi everyone
Today is so cold only reached 34 degrees but it is sunny and melting the snow and ice that we got yesterday. Here is a pic from my backyard

Here is an update of my black wolf which I was able to get 977 stitches in this past weekend.
The brown is the start of the back of the wolf.  I stitchedall of 160 Med Gray Blue, 3033 Very Light Mocha Brown, 644 Med. Beige Gray, 500 Very Dark Blue Green, and 3371 Black Brown.
Happy Stitching!

My Try at Cross Country and I Like It!!!

So I am a little late showing my progress for Fridays stitch in.  Here is a pic of my last stitch and what I did on Friday.  I finished 413 Dk Pewter gray on this page and now stitching 160 Medium Gray Blue and stitching all that color on this page.  I believe its called cross-country.  I managed to stitch 666 stitches on Friday

I am liking this cross-country!  Little more complicating but when the page starts coming to life it is exciting!

I have included a pic of my Ninja playing in the leaves.

Started Over On Black Wolf This Past Weekend

Over this weekend I stitched on Kustom Krafts Black Wolf.  Was stitching it on a gray linen but decided to start again on an off white fabric since it is total coverage and you will not see the fabric anyway.  Plus the linen was pretty expensive.  So the first update is what I stitched on the linen and the other is the off white fabric.  Before I started over I had put in 314 stitches in the linen.  The second o
update is where I started over and put in 692 stitches.

Happy Stitching!!

WoW! Lots of Rain today! So lots of stitching today

The weather today is in the 50s but by Sunday it will be back in the 20s.  Thats the way it is here in Rhode Island.  So I have been stitching on amongst the Tulips today.  Managed to get quite a few stitches in today.  Here is where I left off on my last blog.

Today I put in 754 stitches.

So I have stitched 2723 stitches so far.
Have a wonderful day and Happy stitching!😊

Happy New Year!

Hope everyone had a wonderful New Year!  For this New Year of 2018 I decided to join a few Sals to help me get some of my WIPs and UFOs done.  At the moment I am stitching on Amongst the Tulips by Haed.  I have put in quite a few stitches.  Will insert pics here.

I have put in 1706 stitches in as of August 30, 2015 here is the update from then.  This is the upper left hand corner of the top of the page.

I will do an update later of my stitching on this one.  It is a Haed, Amongst the Tulips by Garmashova.

Enjoy your day and Happy Stitching!

Second update on my Wise Owl!  Here is my update.  Life is so precious! Lost another family member at a very young age of cancer. Also lost a friend from work this month.  Bad start for 2017.2016 was not a good year for us also. Hope all of you are healthy and doing well.!

Been Away But I have Been Stitching!

I have started a new one!  It is called Wise Owl from Dimensions.  I am stitching it for my daughter Ashli. Here is a photo of the pattern and how much I have done.

Here is what I have done.  125 stitches so far.  At the moment I am blending a grey and a blue which is the trees.  It is the right top page in the middle.  It is worked on 14 ct white aida.

The way I am stitching is with the cross country stitching where you stitch 1 color at a time until you finish your first page.  I love this style of stitching.
