Re: Nicole's August Peridot Fairy ** Update 10-03-14**
Some more progress made. Coming along nicely. Quarter stitches are not fun for meand her arms are full of them... Thanks for the replies about BSing. I really don't like that part, so I think from now on I might try to stitch them as I go, so I don't dread the finish because of the BS. http://i844.p...

Re: Nicole's August Peridot Fairy ** Update 9-29-14**
Finally, some more color... I think I'm pretty much done with black on this beauty. Arms have a lot of quarter crosses, and they always make me go mental :-( Question - Do you add backstitching as you work on a project or do you wait til the end and add it all at once? http://i844.photobucket.com/al...

Re: Nicole's August Peridot Fairy ** Update 9-27-14**
Almost done with the dress and Page 4 (still have Page 1 to go). Of course, there were some overlap on my pages so I'm almost finished... I have decided to use thread to do the beads this time. On Lily of the Valley (my first beading experience) I used the invisible thread (basically fishing line) a...

Wow Vanessa! That is amazing! Since you have been giving feedback on my posts I was curious about this with the number of pages. I can't even imagine! You are a stitcher extraordinaire

Re: Nicole's August Peridot Fairy ** Update 9-2-14**
When I started this project I separated the chart into 4 pages. I am now done with Page 2 (the page I started with) and working on Page 4 (going clockwise)... With the exception of keeping the beadwork until last. Here it is in large scale: http://i844.photobucket.com/albums/ab3/glnicolenow/August%2...

Re: Nicole's Wise Owl **Update 8-24-14**
Here's another update. The colors are so dark the picture doesn't show them well. Maybe I need to get this out and take a picture in some natural light to be able to see the colors more truly. This is a fun project so far! http://i844.photobucket.com/albums/ab3/glnicolenow/Wise%20Owl%202014/20140824...

Re: Nicole's August Peridot Fairy ** Update 8-19-14**
Now that the Phoenix is done I have found some time to work on this beauty again. And I work tonight so hopefully I'll have time to work on Wise Owl again :-) http://i844.photobucket.com/albums/ab3/glnicolenow/August%20Peridot%20Fairy%202014/e03f1919-2e27-4b61-ac01-2a74b2d65ef9_zps1220b615.jpg I lik...

Re: Nicole's Wise Owl **Update 8-14-14**
I planned it so when I started restitching the open holes will be stitched over, but I know from past experience that they will eventually soften up and disappear. It is an interesting pattern and I'm having a great time sewing it! I think that I'm not crazy about half stitches because I too easily ...

Re: Sarah's HAED - Calico Kitty (Jo Lynch)
Sarah, this is beautiful! I's so thinking about starting back up on the Alpaca on the 25 ct... Your work is just gorgeous and it seems like you made pretty quick time on it too I look forward to following your other projects until you get back to this one!

Re: Nicole's Wise Owl **Update 8-14-14**
I didn't get too far, you can see the holes pushed open where I took some of the stitches out. This is a great pattern. It uses a lot of half stitches, which aren't my favorite, but it uses them with 4 strands sometimes which gives cool texture to the design. http://i844.photobucket.com/albums/ab3/g...

Nicole's Wise Owl **Update 8-29-14**
Here is a new kit from Dimensions that I got to stitch while I'm at work. (I needed something on the smaller side to keep in my locker). Anyway, this is the second time I'm starting it, after disaster struck the first start and I realized that I had the fabric turned the wrong way and the design was...

Re: Nicole's Phoenix Rising *Update 8-10-14*
Ok, So I haven't been diligent about posting updates in the last month or so. My stitching has slowed down some in the summer months, but I have made some progress and Phoenix is almost done!
