March TUSAL

  

Last month was a very colorful. I was in a bit of a slump where it comes to my more technical projects (except beading, that's going great). However, the cross stitch project I started last month went by so fast. 

I couldn't stop working on it. I really do miss cross stitch. I'll have to see what else I have in my stash. I also worked on a project with my guild. For the upcoming EAC seminar, we're having a guild group challenge. I got the chance to participate and stitch a small part of it. It's meant to be displayed in June, so I'll have to wait till then to share pictures.

February TUSAL

 

I've not been very good at keeping my blog up to date, but I did try not to be too late for the TUSAL report. I've been busy with my Japanese embroidery and bead embroidery. One has been more satisfactory than the other. I need to make time to write something on it. However, neither of those will explain all the blue in my ORT jar.

One of the things I've missed is stitching something as simple as a cross stitch design. Something that doesn't require a lot of thinking, where I'm told what colors to put where. I had picked up this mill hill kit a while back and I just loved the colors. It's called Mediterranean Mares, a design by Laurel Burch. I'm thinking once it's done I'll try my hand at finishing it as a box top.
