progress on unfinished projects

was looking through a bunch of old patterns i had saved and ran into a bunch of old catalogs that i was getting ready to toss out.


wow this is the model i had made for plymouth yarn, i found it in the patternworks catalog, its made out of encore worsted weight yarn. very easy and fun to make with the self striping yarn.




also worked more on the counted cross stitch lighthouse picture, think c. gave me like 3 of them-they were probably free samples she had received from a crafters club. had greg blow up the directions so i could see the differences between the reds.

Lighthouse Cross stitch christmas ornament


This counted cross stitch picture was a moms day gift from my daughter this past year. Being blind I have a hard time doing cross stitch but wanted to do this and put it into a wooden ring to hang on the Christmas Tree this year. I am working on it, a few cross stitches a week, depending on the light. With snow outside I can see where I'm to put the needle a lot easier. Its a dark blue background. This could also be used for a bookmark.
